| Actual Inspection Photos |
| Below are some sample inspection photos pointing out problems found during an inspection. While some problems may be obvious, others may require an experience professional to spot correctly. |

| White efflorescence (powder substance) on block wall indicate moisture is in contact with masonry. This does not necessarily mean that intrusion will occur. Recommend checking gutters, downspout drain lines for proper operation. Also, a water proofing paint could be applied to interior side of block if necessary. Efflorescence is found on many homes without water intrusion occurring inside the home. But, it should alert you to the possibility that future steps may be needed. |
