Most siding problems start small and hidden. Water slips behind a panel at a missing flashing, soaks into the sheathing for a few seasons, and by the time it shows outside, the damage runs deep. A siding inspection exists to catch it early.
A thorough inspection walks every elevation and checks fastening, panel locks, clearances to grade and roofs, kick-out flashing, window and door flashing, caulk joints, J-channel drainage, and penetrations like vents and hose bibs. The pro uses a moisture meter at suspect spots and, when conditions allow, a thermal camera to look for moisture patterns behind the siding.
You receive a written report with photos, problems ranked by urgency, and a straight answer on whether the siding needs repair, maintenance, or replacement. Keep in mind this is a siding contractor's assessment, not a licensed home inspection, and it focuses specifically on the exterior wall system.
Timing helps. Thermal imaging works best when there is a clear temperature difference between inside and outside, and moisture readings are most telling a day or two after rain.

How a Siding Pro Works Through an Inspection
A methodical inspector works the house in the same order every time, usually starting at the front door and moving around clockwise. On each side they first scan from a distance for waves, bulges, stains, and gaps, then get up close.
Up close, they check panel locks and fastening, test for brittleness, measure clearances at grade, patios, and roof lines, and look for kick-out flashing at every roof-to-wall joint. Windows and doors get extra scrutiny for head flashing, sill condition, and whether caulk is standing in for missing flashing.
Moisture readings are taken under windows, at inside corners, below roof intersections, and wherever siding looks stained or distorted. Gutters, downspouts, grading, sprinkler spray, and vegetation touching the wall are noted too, because they often explain what the meter finds. Everything is photographed and summarized in the written report.
The report ends with priorities. Urgent problems such as active leaks or missing flashing are listed first, then repairs for the coming year, then maintenance like resealing. That order makes budgeting simpler and helps during a sale negotiation.

What does a siding inspection include?
It covers fastening, panel condition, clearances, flashing, caulk, drainage, and moisture testing at suspect areas, plus a written report with photos.
How is a siding inspection different from a home inspection?
A home inspection reviews the entire house broadly. A siding contractor's inspection zeroes in on the exterior walls, usually with moisture testing. It does not replace a licensed home inspection.
How long does a siding inspection take?
Usually one to two hours, depending on size, height, and the number of suspect areas. The report usually arrives soon after.
Can a siding inspection find hidden water damage?
Meters and thermal cameras can spot hidden moisture without removing siding, though confirming it sometimes requires a small inspection opening.
How much does a siding inspection cost in Nice?
Pricing varies by house size, height, and scope. You will know the fee before the visit, and repairs are priced separately.
When should I get my siding inspected?
Good times include before a purchase or sale, after big storms, before a warranty ends, and anytime you notice interior stains or wavy panels.
