Know before you budget

What the finish doesn’t tell you

A stucco or EIFS facade can look clean and even from the parking lot while the sheathing behind a row of windows is soft. A visual walk-through notes cracks and stains; an envelope inspection measures what is inside the wall at the places water is most likely to enter.

On a Newnan office, retail or multifamily property, we start with the details that fail first: window and storefront perimeters, parapets and copings, roof-to-wall transitions, balcony and breezeway connections, and the base of the wall where it meets paving or grade. We probe through the finish at those points, take readings of the sheathing, and seal every hole when we finish. Where readings are high, a targeted water test on the window, joint or flashing above confirms the leak path.

The report maps each reading by elevation, includes photos of what we found and explains what the readings mean in practical terms: which conditions need repair now, which can be monitored, and what scope the building likely needs. Owners, buyers, lenders and boards get a clear picture to negotiate, budget or plan from.

Envelope inspections in Newnan

Every survey follows the same idea: test where water gets in, record what we find, and explain it in plain language.

Moisture probe surveys

Probe readings at high-risk locations across each elevation, recorded by location; each hole is sealed afterward.

Readings, not guesses

Water testing

Controlled water applied to a window, storefront, joint or flashing confirms whether that detail is the leak path before anything is opened.

Leak source confirmed

Due diligence surveys

Condition of the stucco or EIFS envelope documented for buyers and lenders before an acquisition or refinance closes.

Before you commit

Reserve study support

Condition findings by elevation that help condo and HOA boards and their reserve specialists plan envelope work over time.

Real numbers for boards

System identification

We confirm whether the wall is hard coat stucco, barrier EIFS or drainable EIFS, because that decides how it is repaired.

Pre-repair baselines

A documented baseline before a repair, recoat or sealant program is scoped, so the scope is built from evidence.

Which survey?

Choosing the right level of testing

Not every building needs the same depth. A visual survey can spot failed sealant, open parapet caps, missing flashing and cladding run below grade, but it can’t tell you whether the sheathing is wet. Probing answers that. Water testing goes one step further and proves which detail is letting water in.

For an acquisition, a refinance or a reserve study, a probe survey across representative areas of every elevation is usually the right level. If a tenant has reported a leak in one location, a focused survey of that area may be enough. We recommend the level that fits your decision and quote it in writing before we start.

Our process

How an envelope survey works

We coordinate access, tenant notice and any lift or ladder work with you before the survey day.

Walk & identify

We walk every elevation, identify the stucco or EIFS system, and note sealant, flashing, parapets, penetrations and clearance at the base.

  • System identified
  • Risk areas marked
  • Visible defects photographed

Probe & test

Probe holes go in at the marked locations and readings are recorded. Where needed, we water test a detail to confirm the leak path.

  • Readings by location
  • Holes sealed afterward
  • Water tests where needed

Report & review

You get a written report with readings, photos and findings by elevation, and we review it with you, your board or your lender’s consultant.

  • Photos of each issue
  • Urgent vs. planned items
  • Repair options if needed

Working against a due diligence deadline?

Inspection periods are short. Call early so access can be arranged and the report is in hand before your deadline.

Why Newnan properties get inspected

As Newnan’s commercial and multifamily market grows, more buildings change hands, get refinanced or reach the end of their first decade.

Retail and office buildings along the I-85 corridor and Bullsboro Drive, and the apartment and condominium communities around them, are reaching ages where original sealants and flashings start to fail. That is when an envelope survey gives the most value: early enough that damage is limited, and specific enough to price.

Tell us your closing date or board meeting when you call. We will tell you honestly whether the schedule works from Canton.

Acquisitions & refinancing

Moisture findings and repair scope for buyers, sellers and lenders who need to know what the facade will cost.

Reserve planning

Condominium and HOA boards use survey results to set reserve priorities and explain them to owners.

Newer buildings

A survey on a recently completed building documents conditions while any builder obligations may still apply.

Questions & answers

Envelope inspection FAQ for Newnan

Questions Newnan buyers, owners and boards ask before ordering a stucco or EIFS inspection.

Do you inspect commercial properties anywhere in Coweta County?
Yes. We inspect office, retail and multifamily buildings in Newnan and the surrounding Coweta County communities. Because it is a longer drive from our Canton base, let us know your deadline early so we can plan the visit.
Is your inspection the same as a Newnan or Coweta County building inspection?
No. Building inspections for permitted work are done by the City of Newnan or Coweta County, depending on the address. Our inspection is a condition survey for owners, buyers, lenders and boards, focused on moisture and envelope details.
Will the probe holes damage the facade?
No. Probe holes are small, placed at the details most likely to show moisture, and sealed when we finish so they do not become a new water path.
What does the written report include?
Moisture readings mapped by elevation, photos of the conditions we found, an explanation of what the readings mean and the repair scope the building likely needs, with urgent items separated from monitoring items.
Can you inspect only part of a property?
Yes. Boards and owners sometimes start with the buildings or elevations with the most complaints. We will explain how far the findings can be applied to the rest of the property.
