Regulations
Good to know before you ask
Stucco homes, especially those built in the 1990s and 2000s in some regions, can trap water behind the finish when flashings or drainage details fail. Damage is often invisible from outside.
Invasive testing drills small holes at high-risk spots, measures moisture and seals the holes. We do not perform inspections ourselves and do not show prices.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is invasive stucco testing?
The inspector drills small holes at spots where water typically enters, measures the moisture and condition of the sheathing, then seals the holes.
Is it worth it for a purchase?
For many stucco homes, yes: remediation can be very expensive, and damage is not visible.
Will the holes show?
They are sealed and patched; they may be slightly visible on close inspection.
