Buying a home is probably the most expensive purchase you will ever make. This is not the time to shop for a cheap inspection. The cost of your inspection is very small relative to the value of the home being inspected. As a homebuyer, you have recently been crunching numbers, negotiating offers, adding up closing costs, shopping for mortgages, and trying to get the best deals. Don't stop now. Don't let your real estate agent, an inexperienced inspector, or anyone else talk you into skimping here. Our inspectors perform the best inspections by far and to be honest with our customers, we charge based on the size of the property, the age of the home, and the distance from our offices. Call us at (561) 570-6311 to schedule an appointment to have your home inspected by one of our Certified Master Inspectors.
In many cases, two homes with the same square footage could be drastically different. One home may have 5,000 SQF while the other one is just 1,000 SQF. Some homes are newer and up to date on code and maintenance while others are old and poorly maintained and it may take long to do a thorough inspection report. Some homes have swimming pool, or a seawall and dock which you might want to get it inspected since they are big ticket items. At the very least, we recommend getting the three most common insurance inspections. Your insurance company may require a Roof Certification Inspection and may require a Four Point Insurance Inspection if the home is more than 25 years old. And to lower your windstorm insurance rates, a Wind Mitigation Inspection could qualify you for significant discounts. These three inspections can provide significant insurance premium savings. Remember, when comparing inspection companies look at the overall package and not just the bottom line.
Home InspectionA General Home Inspection is a comprehensive visual inspection of rather accessible major systems of the house (Electrical, HVAC, Plumbing*, Roof, Site Drainage, Moisture Infiltration, Wood Rot, Attic Insulation, Windows, Doors, Interior Surfaces, Crawlspace (if applicable).
Pre-Listing or Seller's Inspection (Move-in Certified™)A Move-In Certified™ Seller Inspection is equivalent to a Full Home Inspection in scope. It is intended to prevent 11th-hour re-negotiations and closing delays. The Inspection can reveal problems ahead of time, which: a)gives the seller time to make repairs; b) permits the seller to attach repair estimates or paid invoices to the inspection report; and c) gives you the information you need to make an informed home-buying decision.
Eleven Month Warranty InspectionThe Scope is the same as a Full Home Inspection. An 11th Month Warranty Inspection is conducted specifically to benefit new homeowners that have lived in their residence for slightly less than one year. Builders and selected subcontractors typically extend a one year warranty to the first/new homeowner covering many aspects of a new home. As a new homeowner covered under a builders warranty, you will want to make sure you place a claim before the expiration of the warranty.
Absent Owner Maintenance InspectionAbsent owner Maintenance Inspection: This is a yearly maintenance inspection of the major mechanical components of the home for property owners that are either too busy or live out of town and would like to make sure their properties are being properly kept by either their tenants or someone else

WDO (Termite Inspection) 3rd PartyTermite Inspection: As defined by the state of Florida, a Wood Destroying Organism (WDO) Report is "a written report of an inspection on a home for visible and accessible evidence of an infestation or damage by wood destroying organisms". This will be performed by a Licensed Pest Professional.
Roofing (Citizen) Insurance CertificationRoof Certification Inspection: This is a report that requires photos and is required on new insurance policies to document for the insurance company on the condition of the roof, how old it is, and how much longer it can be expected to last.
Seawall and Dock InspectionSeawall or Dock Inspection: We will evaluate the condition of the seawall from the top of the wall down to the sediment line beneath the surface. Inspect and Test Davits or Boat lifts is extra. Underwater inspection is included.

Wind Mitigation InspectionWind Mitigation Inspection: This is an inspection of the home's structural condition / design and hurricane resistance features (hurricane shutters, type of roofing, hurricane tie-down straps, building code that the home was designed to, any additional attic bracing etc.) This provide huge insurance savings based on the features or installed components of the home.
Thermal Imaging InspectionInfrared or Thermal Imaging Inspection: We'll conduct a thermographic image scan of the property to capture any areas of air leak, water leaks, equipment malfunction that may be invisible to the human eye. Save time and money by isolating the problem. You will be provided with a set of pictures and an explanation for what those pictures capture.
Mold InspectionsMold Assessment or Mold Inspection: We will conduct a visual inspection of all areas of probable mold growth. Typically wet areas. We will take up to 3 mold air samples or mold swab samples and send it to a lab for analysis. We will provide you with a remediation protocol that tells what needs to be done to correct it.
Moisture Intrusion InspectionMoisture Inspection or Leak Detection: We'll conduct a moisture survey of the house using a combination of moisture detecting tools so we can determine the extent of the water intrusion. We will not include thermographic images.
