Why Paid Inspections?
Eco Smart has been around for long enough to understand what San Francisco customers really need.
“Eco Smart has designed a custom (360 Inspection) service that is required as the first step in any request for service and replacement.”
In today’s technologically advanced and modern world, there are countless tools that help contractors and roofers in calculated project estimation and inspections. Many roofers and contractors performing traditional “free estimates” are unfortunately forced to sell potential customers on projects they don’t necessarily need in search of reimbursement for time they spent giving out "free proposals", as the end result the estimates or proposals generated by most contractors are not completely “free”. Most free estimate sessions take no longer than 12-15 minutes which is not enough time to generate a calculated opinion on true condition of the building's exterior and roof as many of the leaks are not caused by isolated roofing or exterior issues. Based on our extended experience in inspections, general contracting and roofing, leaks are often created by siding issues, stucco and fiber cement finishes that weren’t properly installed or waterproofed, issues with flashings and step flashings often cause leaks and water damage, often there are many contributing factors to any one leak.
In order to protect clients and perform quality, unbiased evaluations based on solid facts, Eco Smart Builder has designed a custom “360 Inspection” service that is required as the first step in any request for service, repair or replacement. Please note that interior access is required for this inspection service. For standard residential buildings we need access to all interior spaces, for all multi-unit and/or commercial buildings we must access top floor units. Initial inspection are priced at $685 (Residential Buildings up to 2000 Square Feet), please note that additional charge is applied for complex multi-leveled and multi-deck buildings. Complex Building Initial Inspections and Commercial Building Initial Inspections are priced at $1,470 for Commercial Buildings and buildings that are 3,000+ Square Feet and buildings with 3 units or more). The inspection usually takes approximately 45-60 minutes for residential buildings and 60-120 minutes for commercial buildings as well as larger and more complex structures.
Please note that Eco Smart 360 Roof & Exterior Inspections with moisture mapping cannot be performed on rainy days for safety reasons.
