Customer Reviews

Real Reviews from Siding Inspection Clients Across De Graff, OH

★★★★★

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

De Graff

★★★★★

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 — De Graff, OH Homeowners Ask

Home inspectors cover 20+ systems in a standard inspection and typically spend less than five minutes per exterior elevation. We spend 90 minutes to three hours on the exterior alone, with diagnostic tools and the specific expertise to identify early-stage failure before it becomes costly damage.

Our standard inspection toolkit includes a calibrated pin-type moisture meter for sheathing readings, a non-invasive capacitance meter for scanning behind panels in suspected infiltration zones, a caulk probe tool for joint testing, a 24" level for checking panel alignment and drainage plane, and a DSLR with macro capability for documenting panel-face conditions. We also use a tablet-based photo documentation system that geo-tags images to their location on the building.

Annual inspections on any siding over 15 years old are worthwhile in OH — 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.

Professional siding-specific inspection fees in OH typically range from a few hundred dollars for a basic exterior assessment to more for larger homes requiring full elevation documentation with moisture mapping. We provide a fixed fee quote when you schedule based on home size and story count — no open-ended hourly billing.

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.

The inspection and the repair are separate service decisions. Our goal on the inspection is to give you the most accurate picture of your building envelope possible. What you do with that information is entirely your choice — and the report gives you the documentation to make that choice from an informed position.
