What the report covers.
Every PE-sealed report Scapular issues — regardless of which service line or which Lexington property — covers the same six structural findings.
-
Foundation system
Pier spacing, footing size, and soil bearing, checked against HUD's permanent foundation guide. The finding underwriters look at first.
-
Anchoring & tie-downs
Over-the-roof straps or frame ties, ground anchors, and compliance with the home's installation manual wind zone rating.
-
HUD data plate
Manufacturer, model, serial number, HUD label number, wind zone, thermal zone, and roof load — all verified on-site and transcribed into the report.
-
HUD certification label
Red label affixed to the exterior of each transportable section. Location documented and cross-referenced with the data plate.
-
Utilities & skirting
Water, sewer, and electrical connection method. Skirting material and continuity. Both findings required for FHA permanent foundation status.
-
Towing hardware
Running gear, axles, and towing hitch status. FHA requires these to be removed or rendered non-functional for permanent foundation classification.
The final page of every report is the PE certification — signed, sealed, and carrying the engineer's license number and state of issuance. This is the page your underwriter detaches for the loan-doc file. For Lexington properties, the NE PE license is the one printed on that page.
Common questions for Nebraska.
Questions specific to Lexington inspection requests and Nebraska state requirements.
Does Nebraska require a PE for manufactured home inspections?
Yes. FHA and conventional lenders require a state-licensed engineer for manufactured home structural certifications. Our P.E. holds an active Nebraska license.
What office records manufactured home affixation documents in Nebraska?
Nebraska affidavits of affixation are filed with the register of deeds in the county where the property is located. Title cancellation is handled by the Nebraska DMV. We supply the PE-sealed engineering documentation; your title company handles the state filing.
What areas of Nebraska do you serve?
We cover all of Nebraska under our PE license: Omaha, Lincoln, Grand Island, Bellevue, and rural counties statewide. Scheduling depends on the property address, and your quote confirms the field-visit window.
Do you do home inspections in Lexington?
No. Scapular is a structural engineering firm, not a general home inspection company. A home inspector reviews the whole house for a buyer. We provide the signed and sealed engineering report a lender, insurer, or permit office asks for, and a structural opinion when a home inspector flags something. If your inspector recommended a structural engineer, send us that page of the report.
Dawson County recording note: In Nebraska, affidavits of affixation are recorded at the county register of deeds. Nebraska title cancellation for manufactured homes is handled by the Department of Motor Vehicles.
