III. Key Services and Their Benefits
Aaron’s Inspections specializes in three major types of inspections—existing homes, new construction, and EIFS moisture detection—each with its own value proposition:
Existing Home Inspections
This is the most commonly requested service, ideal for buyers preparing to purchase a lived-in home. Inspectors assess:
- Structural integrity (foundation, roof, walls)
- Electrical systems
- Plumbing networks
- Heating and cooling efficiency
- Safety hazards
Benefits: Avoid unexpected repair costs, gain negotiation power, and understand what’s behind walls before you buy.
New Home Inspections
While new homes may appear perfect, latent issues often surface. This inspection checks:
- Construction quality
- Code compliance
- Unfinished work or hidden defects
Benefits: Catch builder errors before closing, ensure warranty coverage, and validate quality assurance.
EIFS Moisture Inspections
Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems (EIFS)—often called synthetic stucco—are known for moisture trapping if improperly installed. Aaron’s EIFS inspections use moisture meters and infrared tools to:
- Detect hidden water intrusion
- Assess mold risk
- Evaluate damage behind the façade
Benefits: Prevent structural decay, improve home health, and plan for moisture remediation early.
Comparison Table: Inspection Services Overview
Service Type | Ideal For | Key Features | Common Issues Found |
---|---|---|---|
Existing Home | Homebuyers (used homes) | Comprehensive home system checks | Roof leaks, old wiring, HVAC inefficiencies |
New Construction | Buyers of new homes | Code compliance and construction oversight | Unfinished work, poor sealing, misaligned systems |
EIFS Moisture | EIFS owners or buyers | Moisture detection using probes and thermal tools | Trapped moisture, mold, hidden structural damage |
IV. Why Moisture Matters: EIFS Specialization
The Hidden Threat of Moisture Intrusion
Moisture is a silent destroyer. In homes with EIFS, improper sealing or drainage can cause water to become trapped inside wall cavities. Over time, this leads to:
- Mold growth
- Wood rot
- Structural weakening
- Health hazards
Unlike other types of inspections, EIFS assessments require specialized tools and skills. Aaron’s Inspections has carved a niche in this service, combining thermal imaging and invasive moisture probing for highly accurate results.
Moisture Detection Technology
Tools used include:
- Tramex moisture meters
- FLIR infrared cameras
- Penetrating probes for EIFS and stucco systems
This high-tech approach minimizes the need for destructive wall openings, saving homeowners time and money while still revealing critical data.
