Roof
Most roof problems start small, at flashing, penetrations, and worn coverings. I’m looking for the early signs of leaks, and the drone gets me close-up views of areas you can’t see from the ground.
Exterior
The exterior’s main job is keeping water out and moving it away from the house. Grading and drainage get extra attention because they cause problems everywhere else.
HVAC
I test the systems in their normal operating modes and identify the equipment’s age, so you know what’s working now and what’s likely due for replacement.
Electrical
This is where I find some of the most serious safety issues, especially in older Long Island homes with aging panels, outdated wiring, or DIY work.
Plumbing
I run water everywhere and watch what happens. Slow drains and small leaks are easy to miss on a walkthrough but show up fast under actual use.
Appliances
I run them, not just look at them. A dishwasher that fills but never drains looks fine until you use it.
Interior
Cracks, stains, and doors that won’t close are either cosmetic or a symptom of something bigger. My job is telling you which one you’re looking at.
Basement & Foundation
Water in the basement is one of the most common and expensive problems on Long Island, so this area gets extra attention. I’m looking for moisture, movement, and anything affecting the structure.
Attic
The attic tells on the rest of the house. Ventilation problems, leaks, and missing insulation all show up here first.
