In Aspen, Colorado, comprehensive home inspections are a critical step in protecting your investment and ensuring your home’s safety and performance. Whether you’re purchasing a mountain chalet, a historic Victorian, or a modern alpine retreat, a detailed inspection covers the essentials—structural elements, roofing, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems—offering clear insight into the property’s overall condition.
HUD/FHA Mobile Home Foundation Certification Inspections
If you’re buying or refinancing a manufactured home near Aspen with HUD or FHA funding, you’ll likely need a Permanent Foundation Guide for Manufactured Housing (PFGMH) Inspection. I am certified to perform the on-site inspection required for this process. While I do not offer engineering services myself, I work directly with a licensed engineer who handles the formal evaluation and billing.
Engineer’s Foundation Evaluations
Aspen’s diverse terrain and seasonal climate shifts can make foundation evaluations especially important. I conduct the physical inspection needed for a licensed engineer to review and provide an official assessment or certification. To be clear, I am not an engineer—I facilitate the inspection process and coordinate with an engineering professional who completes and bills separately for their evaluation.
