What to expect from your
Cottage Hill Inspection?
What makes
Us Different
Did your last inspector get on the roof? This roof leak was not visible from the ground and would have been missed by other inspectors.
This improperly flashed electrical mast would likely have been missed by other inspectors. We always try to walk on a roof when it is safe to do so.
Did your last inspector perform a carbon monoxide test?
