Common Santa Barbara Property Findings
Hillside Foundation & Drainage
In Mission Canyon and the Riviera, we evaluate retaining walls and drainage systems critical for foundation stability.
The Mesa: Coastal Corrosion
We check for salt-air corrosion on HVAC components and moisture intrusion common in Santa Barbara's coastal neighborhoods.
Sewer Lateral Aging
Because of our mature trees and old clay lines, we recommend a $199 sewer scope for homes built before the 1980s.
Historic Electrical Systems
We identify outdated Zinsco or Federal Pacific panels common in historic estates that may impact insurability.
