About Point Pleasant, NJ

Point Pleasant is a well-established Jersey Shore community known for its mix of classic coastal homes, year-round residences, and seasonal properties. Many homes in the area were built prior to the 1980s, often featuring older construction methods, original systems, and multiple renovations over time.

📍 Little Known Fact:
Point Pleasant’s early development was closely tied to railroad expansion in the late 1800s, which led to tightly spaced lots and unique foundation and framing designs still seen in many older homes today.

Local Homes & Construction

Homes in Point Pleasant are frequently built on smaller lots with limited setbacks and varying elevations. Proximity to the coast means properties are exposed to salt air, high winds, and moisture, all of which can accelerate wear on exterior materials and mechanical systems.

We carefully evaluate how coastal conditions impact roofing, siding, fasteners, decks, and drainage systems, especially in homes that have been renovated or elevated over time.

Inspection Focus Areas

🔧 Structural & Foundation

We inspect foundations, framing, and supports for signs of settlement, moisture intrusion, or modifications related to flood mitigation or past renovations.

🏠 Roof & Exterior

Roof coverings, flashing, siding, decks, railings, and exterior drainage are evaluated for storm exposure, corrosion, and weather-related deterioration.

⚡ Electrical Systems

Electrical panels, wiring, outlets, and grounding are reviewed for safety concerns, outdated components, and coastal corrosion risks.

🚿 Plumbing Systems

Supply and drain piping, fixtures, and water heaters are checked for leaks, corrosion, and proper operation, particularly in homes with older plumbing materials.

🌡️ Heating & Cooling

Heating and cooling equipment, ventilation, and combustion safety features are tested for efficiency and reliability in a high-moisture environment.
