What’s Really Hiding Behind Those Walls?

Hey, I’m David Lelak with IHI Home Inspections, and if you're buying a home in Suwanee, GA, or nearby cities like Cumming, Alpharetta, Woodstock, or Canton—you need to know what’s going on behind the scenes of that picture-perfect home.

I recently inspected a home in Suwanee, GA 30024 (Forsyth County) and found some jaw-dropping issues. These weren’t things you’d notice during a walkthrough—but trust me, they can cost you thousands if you miss them.

Key Issues We Found During the Inspection

Here are just a few of the hidden problems we uncovered that every buyer in Forsyth and Cherokee County should know about:

1. 🔩 Exposed Nails on the Roof

Not only do these shorten your roof's lifespan, but they’re also an open door for water intrusion. These nails needed caulking immediately. It’s a simple fix—but not if you don’t catch it in time.

2. 🌧 Loose Gutters That Can Ruin Foundations

Loose gutters were directing water too close to the foundation. That’s a recipe for cracks, mold, and long-term damage. It’s an easy thing to overlook, but a costly problem if ignored.

3. 💧 Moisture Stains on the Ceiling

A seemingly small stain in the front room could point to a roof leak or plumbing failure. Left untreated, it could invite mold and rot—not the kind of surprise you want after closing.

4. 🧱 Damaged Sheetrock in the Back Bedroom

This wasn’t just cosmetic—it was a potential structural issue. Cracks and warps in sheetrock often signal shifting foundations or deeper damage.
