Mobile Home and Manufactured Housing Inspections in Amarillo, TX
What is a Mobile Home Inspection?
Buying or selling a mobile home in Amarillo, Canyon, or anywhere across the Texas Panhandle is a big decision — and it’s not just about picking the right shade of siding. A mobile home inspection is a detailed examination of the home’s structure, systems, and overall condition. We check everything from the roof to the skirting, the plumbing to the HVAC, ensuring you know exactly what you’re getting into before making a move. Think of it as giving your home a thorough check-up, like Bob Ross inspecting every corner of a painting—happy little trees, and hopefully zero happy little leaks.
Reasons to get a mobile home inspection
Mobile homes have unique quirks compared to site-built homes, and ignoring them can lead to costly surprises. A mobile home inspection helps you:
-
Identify hidden problems – From corrosion under the frame to water intrusion behind walls, we uncover what’s often invisible.
-
Negotiate with confidence – A detailed inspection report can help buyers request repairs or adjust pricing.
-
Ensure safety and compliance – Electrical, propane, and structural issues can be dangerous if missed.
-
Plan for long-term maintenance – Knowing what’s coming down the road means fewer emergency calls and stress.
Buying a mobile home without an inspection is like trying to assemble IKEA furniture blindfolded — it might work, but the odds aren’t great.
What Does a Mobile Home Inspection Cover?
Our inspections follow Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) standards, tailored to the unique characteristics of mobile and manufactured homes. We evaluate:
-
Foundation and Frame – Skirting, piers, anchors, and frame condition to ensure stability.
-
Roof and Exterior – Panels, seams, flashing, and siding checked for leaks, hail damage, and wind resistance.
-
Interior – Walls, ceilings, doors, and windows evaluated for safety and function.
-
Electrical System – Panels, breakers, outlets, and grounding are tested to ensure safety.
-
Plumbing System – Supply lines, drains, fixtures, and water heaters checked for leaks and performance.
-
HVAC System – Heating and cooling units, ductwork, and vents inspected for efficiency.
-
Appliances – Permanently installed appliances like ranges, ovens, and water heaters are tested.
-
Attic, Insulation, and Ventilation – Proper insulation, ventilation, and moisture issues are documented.
Mobile homes face unique challenges like transportation stress and weather extremes (think Texas wind storms and hail), so these inspections are extra important.
