When to call a professional

How HouseIt reaches this result

HouseIt combines the answers you enter with the decision mode for this tool—diagnose. It uses the combination of facts rather than treating one symptom, age threshold or rule of thumb as definitive.

What this tool cannot verify remotely

HouseIt cannot inspect concealed conditions, confirm code compliance, perform licensed calculations, measure electrical or combustion conditions, or replace an on-site professional diagnosis where one is required.

What this HouseIt tool considers

Identify the failed component before assuming full replacement. The decision flow uses inputs such as draft, insulated glass unit, seal failure, frame rot, water entry, glazing, vinyl, but only where they can change the result.

Content quality rule: this page is not intended to rank as a thin wrapper around a form. The interactive result, explanation, safety boundary, methodology and related homeowner questions are all part of the page's value.
