Services
Residential Home Inspections
Our residential inspections thoroughly evaluate homes for structural integrity, systems functionality, and potential issues. We examine electrical panels, plumbing, HVAC, roofs, and foundations, delivering detailed reports with photographic evidence. Clients receive same-day results to support timely purchase decisions.
Wind Mitigation Inspections
This specialized inspection assesses properties for hurricane preparedness, focusing on roof construction, window protections, and structural reinforcements. Results help homeowners qualify for insurance discounts by demonstrating compliance with safety standards.
4-Point Inspections
Targeted assessments of roofing, plumbing, electrical systems, and HVAC identify risks for insurance purposes. These inspections help policyholders maintain coverage eligibility and understand maintenance needs in older properties.
New Construction Inspections
We inspect newly built homes at pre-closing and 11th-month walkthrough stages to identify defects in workmanship or materials. Our reports help buyers ensure compliance with building codes before finalizing purchases.
REO Foreclosure Inspections
Comprehensive evaluations of bank-owned properties identify maintenance issues and safety hazards. Our reports assist investors in understanding repair costs and market value for distressed properties.
