Moisture & Water Intrusion

• ✔ Visible mold / mildew growth
• ✔ Moisture readings (wood surface & air RH%)
• ✔ Standing water / drainage issues
• ✔ Sump pump functionality (if present)
• ✔ Vapor barrier coverage & integrity

Airflow & Ventilation

• ✔ Attic ventilation balance (soffit intake vs ridge/exhaust)
• ✔ Blocked vents (insulation or debris)
• ✔ Crawlspace vent access / airflow

Insulation & Energy Efficiency

• ✔ Insulation depth & R‑value estimate
• ✔ Insulation condition (wet, compressed, contaminated)
• ✔ Air leakage points (around pipes, wires, ducts)
• ✔ Thermal bridging or hot/cold spots (IR scan)

Rodents & Contaminants

• ✔ Rodent droppings / nesting evidence
• ✔ Odor sources (musty / ammonia smell)
• ✔ Contaminated insulation or debris

System Performance

• ✔ Ductwork condition (leaks, disconnected, dirty)
• ✔ Plumbing leaks or condensation observed
• ✔ Electrical penetrations (safe clearance around insulation)
