What Our Reports Frequently Reveal
Even newer homes in Somerville aren’t immune to hidden problems. We regularly uncover termite entry through unsealed vents, incorrectly installed roof flashings, and excessive moisture behind showers, creating perfect conditions for decay. Cracked lintels, sagging insulation, and ageing hot water units are also common finds.
These issues can put stress on your budget and timeline if left unchecked. That’s why our inspections and optional frame stage assessments are designed to give you control before the situation escalates.
