Foggy windows usually mean the seals have failed, allowing moisture to get trapped between the glass. This reduces energy efficiency and indicates it might be time for a replacement.

Look for visible cracks, warping, or peeling paint, which are common signs that your door is aging and losing its protective qualities. These issues can affect both the door's appearance and its ability to protect your home from the elements.

What if my entry door looks outdated?

An outdated door can detract from your home's curb appeal and make it look older than it is. A new door can refresh your home's exterior, adding style and increasing its value.

What should I do if my door is letting in water during rain?

Water infiltration usually means the door or its seals are damaged, which can lead to mold, rot, and structural issues over time. A new door with proper sealing will protect your home from moisture and the problems it brings.

Doors that stick, are hard to open, or don't close properly could be misaligned due to warping or frame issues. This not only makes your door less functional but can also impact security and energy efficiency.

Can I be present during the inspection?

Absolutely! It is important and valuable for you to be present during the inspection so we can walk you through any issues and explain what we find in real-time. It is much more difficult to get the details across over email, let's say, than being able to look at the pictures and explain the details in person. It is your home afterall and we want you to be as informed as possible concerning any issues and potential solutions.

Can you give me an estimate right after the inspection?

In most cases, we can provide an on-the-spot estimate after the inspection. For more complex issues, we’ll follow up with a detailed estimate within 24-48 hours.

Our inspections and review of findings with you are quite thorough and detailed, so depending on the size and complexity of your roof or exterior, we generally ask that you set aside 1.5-2.5 hours of availability for the appointment. After our initial hello and brief review with you we will be at work inspecting for a while. Afterward, discuss our findings and answer any questions you may have.

How quickly can I schedule an appointment with Nest Exteriors?

We aim to offer flexible scheduling and can often book your inspection within 1-3 business days. Our team works around your availability to ensure a convenient and timely appointment.

How soon can work begin after the inspection?

Once the inspection is complete and you approve the project plan, we can typically schedule the work within a week, depending on the scope and your availability. We’ll work with you to get started as quickly as possible.

How soon will I get the inspection report?

We provide the results of the inspection immediately, either during the appointment or within 24 hours. You’ll receive a detailed report, including photos and recommendations for any necessary repairs or improvements.

What if I need an inspection for insurance purposes?

We’re experienced with insurance-related inspections and will provide the documentation and photos needed for your claim. We can also work directly with your adjuster to ensure all damage is properly assessed.

What if bad weather delays the inspection?

If bad weather is expected, we may have to reach out and reschedule your appointment for the next available day. We’ll always prioritize your safety and ensure the inspection happens under safe conditions.

What kind of information do I need to provide when scheduling?

When scheduling, we’ll ask for basic details like your address, contact information, and a brief description of the issue or service you’re interested in. This helps us prepare for your specific needs before the inspection.

What kind of roofing issues can you detect during an inspection?

We look for common issues such as missing shingles, leaks, water damage, and improper ventilation. Our detailed inspection helps identify both visible and hidden problems that may affect your roof’s performance.

What should I expect during the initial service appointment?

During the inspection appointment, our experienced team will assess the condition of your roof or exterior, identify any damage or potential issues, and provide you with a detailed report and clear, no-pressure recommendations for repairs or replacement. You can count on us for transparency and honest advice about what’s best for your home.

What types of roofing materials do you inspect and work with?

We inspect all types of roofing materials, including asphalt shingles, metal roofs, slate, and low slope membranes. Our team is experienced with a wide range of roofing systems, ensuring thorough evaluations and expert recommendations.

Will Nest Exteriors inspect my siding and gutters during the appointment?

Yes, if requested, we can inspect your entire exterior—including siding, gutters, and windows—during the appointment. This helps provide a comprehensive assessment of your home’s exterior needs.

Will you explain the inspection results in detail?

Absolutely! We believe in educating our clients, so after the inspection, we’ll walk you through our findings, explain any potential issues, and discuss the best course of action to keep your home protected.
