Stucco Inspection
The exterior stucco on homes in the Atlanta area is either hardcoat or synthetic. Both types of stucco can experience problems that can allow moisture levels to exceed 30% inside of the wall cavity. Synthetic stucco experiences more problems than hardcoat due to consistent improper installation by synthetic stucco installers, but it is vitally important to moisture test both types of stucco during a real estate transaction.
With a Stucco Inspection from RIA, you’ll have the knowledge and protection you need to confidently buy the home you want.
Four Steps to a Stucco Inspection
1
Our stucco inspectors use moisture scanners and probe meters to determine the moisture level present in the wall cavity behind the stucco.
2
Our inspectors will note installation errors, missing flashing, missing caulking, moisture entry areas, etc.
3
Our inspectors can instruct you on how to maintain and care for your stucco as well.
4
You will receive a detailed inspection report noting all of the inspector's findings and moisture readings, pictures of areas of concern, and a summary of repair items.
