After hail, high winds, or debris events, a systematic close-range inspection documents impact damage that isn't visible from the ground — essential for insurance claims and for understanding the full scope before scheduling repairs.

Moisture Infiltration Investigation

When interior walls show staining, musty odor, or soft drywall near exterior walls, the source is almost always the building envelope. We trace moisture entry points from the exterior using non-invasive meters before recommending any destructive investigation.

Customer Reviews

Forge Siding Siding Inspection — Verified Washington, DC Customer Feedback

★★★★★

We almost closed on a house without knowing about significant moisture damage behind the north siding. Forge Siding's pre-purchase inspection found elevated readings on two wall sections — no interior symptoms yet, but active moisture in the sheathing. We used the report to negotiate a $14,000 credit from the seller.

R. & T. Holcomb

★★★★★

Annual inspection caught a failed caulk joint at our rear sliding door that I never would have noticed — it was behind a hose bib and completely out of view. Fixed for under $300. The inspector showed me what to watch for at that location going forward.

★★★★★

The geo-tagged photos in the report were the difference between a partial claim and a full elevation replacement. That's a documentation gap most homeowners don't know to close.

C. Bauer

Washington

★★★★★

The pre-listing inspection found two areas of minor paint failure on the north elevation that would have flagged in the buyer's inspection. We fixed them before listing — total cost was under $600. The house showed clean on the buyer's report and closed without any siding-related negotiation.

FAQ

Siding Inspection FAQ — Washington, DC Homeowners Ask

General home inspectors walk the perimeter and note obvious visual deficiencies — peeling paint, missing panels, large cracks. A dedicated siding inspection goes several steps further: close-range panel assessment for hail impact damage not visible from distance, moisture meter readings at sheathing access points, caulk probe testing at every penetration, fastener pattern check in accessible areas, and assessment of housewrap integrity where visible at soffit edges or window flanges.

The tools determine what the inspection can find. Non-invasive meters identify elevated moisture conditions behind panels without drilling. Pin meters confirm readings at accessible points. Without these tools, an inspection is a visual walk-around — useful, but incomplete for moisture-related issues that are the most expensive siding failures.

Annual inspections on any siding over 15 years old are worthwhile in DC — not because something is necessarily wrong, but because catching failed caulk and minor fastener movement at the annual visit costs a fraction of the water damage repair those small deficiencies cause if left unaddressed for years.

Our inspection fee is quoted upfront when you book. If the inspection identifies repair work you want us to complete, the inspection fee is credited against the repair project cost. That approach ensures the inspection report is an unbiased assessment, not a sales tool.

We've found active sheathing moisture on homes where the interior walls and the siding surface looked completely normal. The siding was intact, the drywall showed no staining, but non-invasive meter readings showed significant moisture behind two wall sections. Targeted repair before interior damage appeared saved the homeowner a major mold and drywall remediation project.

Yes, we can complete any repair work identified in the inspection report. However, the inspection report is yours regardless of whether you use us for repairs. It includes enough detail — panel counts, locations, deficiency type — for you to get competitive repair quotes from any contractor. We don't use the report as leverage to lock you into using us for follow-up work.
