Having a home inspection following winter is a wonderful way to get a good idea of how your home is coping with the winters and where you can improve on heating and home maintenance. How does Winter affect my home investment?

Believe it or not, winters tend to dry out your walls more than a hot summer day. The cold/dry days of winter will draw moisture out of your walls and make your home very dry.

If you are seeing moisture during the winter anywhere around your walls or ceiling it is probably a good time to call a home inspector and have them assess where the problem lies.

Lack of insulation, and down-right, no insulation are typically the culprit. Both of these issues can typically be remediated fairly cost-effectively.

Without taking care of the issue, you can end up paying in both your health and your pocketbook.

If you see something that doesn’t seem right, call a professional home inspector like White Dog Inspections, LLC to come to assess the issue at hand.
