Home Inspections at The Jersey Shore

Finished a home inspection down the shore today in time to check out the beach.


As much as I love the Jersey Shore, it is a rough environment for homes. 

South Jersey's Cape May, Atlantic and Ocean Counties get hit year-round by brutal storms. Strong storm winds and high tides pelt homes with sand and salt water (as a result air conditioning units often have a substantially decreased lifespan). 

Sure, the summer sun may seem serene if you are relaxing on the beach, but it isn't any nicer to the homes in the are --the hot sun combined with the salt air can be equally harsh to decks and roofs.

Routine cleaning and maintenance is even more important for houses at the Jersey Shore.
