PROBLEM:
Front doors without overhangs take a beating from sun, wind & rain.

costly future repairs. Insects (termites and carpenter ants) are
attracted to moisture in the wood resulting from water entry can cause
extensive hidden damage These problems turn up frequently on
Residential Inspection Repair Reports and must be repaired before a
house can be sold.
SOLUTION:
Caulking seasonally and making sure proper flashing has been installed
or building front porch overhangs will prevent water entry and insect
damage. When you notice a problem, take immediate action before it
becomes costly. Take advantage of our Seasonal Home Inspection for
added assurance.
