This inspection is a limited inspection where the report is more of a checklist of the 5 major components; roof, exterior envelope, mechanical system, electrical panels, and plumbing system. It is designed to be more affordable and quicker than and not as technical as a full home inspection.
The inspection excludes window, doors, appliances and receptacles. This tends to be around a 20 page report, and typically takes about 3 hours. The Express Inspection does not include an infrared scan, but can be added for just $35.

Full Home Inspection
This is a technical, thorough, descriptive, and detail oriented inspection that is above and beyond industry standards. This inspection includes all the major components; electrical, mechanical, plumbing, exterior building envelope, and roofing.
To name a few of the many tasks that will be done, our inspectors will pull electrical panels to verify that wire and breaker sizes match, document AC and heat operation, inspect the exterior building envelope, the plumbing system, appliances, and even crawl through the attic. This tends to be a 30-50 page report that typically takes 4-5 hours.
In addition, you have the option to purchase an 18 month home protection warranty for the price of 12 months (that’s 6 months free)!
Condo/Townhome Inspection- With condo/townhouse inspections we perform everything that a full home inspection gets without the roof and exterior envelope which can be added for a nominal fee. The exterior envelope and roof can be added for additional fee. The condo/townhouse inspection typically is around 30 page report and takes about 3-4 hours.

New Construction Phase inspections Only
In phase inspections, we focus on three; pre-slab, pre-drywall and final-performance/aesthetics inspection at the end.
a) 1st phase/pre-slab is so we can inspect the presence of mechanical and electrical chases, plumbing lines, steel in footing, general size of footings, vapor barriers, etc. b) 2nd phase/pre-drywall is so we can see all the rough trades; electrical, mechanical, plumbing and framing. c) 3rd phase/final-performance/aesthetics is the inspection at the end. A complete and through evaluation of the home for the purposes of establishing a “Punch List” for the Builder.
Pricing based on square feet, age, and special features.

Nobody does what we do. What makes us vastly different than nearly every other home inspection person or company in the area is a much higher technical inspection, our systems and SOPs, our equipment and our personnel. You won’t find another home inspection company with our list of credentials that will spend the amount of time on your inspection that we do. Whereas the industry average for a “home inspection” is 1.5 hours, our average home inspection is 4.5 hours because the more you know, the longer it takes.
We offer THE most valuable home inspection in Central Florida.
We understand building science and besides the full technical home inspection we also include an interior and electrical panel infrared scan with one of our FLIR E95/E60/T420/B250 high resolution thermal imaging cameras done by a Certified Thermographer. We take the data plate information from your appliances including the AC and water heater and track them for recalls and free repairs forever.
We provide limited warranties free of charge.
Things break and it’s nobody’s fault, that’s why we include a 90 day warranty on major appliances. We include a mold source probability assessment with a Mold Safe warranty that covers up to a $2000 remediation for mold we might miss. We include a free Threshold Inspection for Chinese drywall, we include a sewer line warranty (extendable with a sewer scope), a 5 year roof leak repair warranty and your custom report will be computer generated right there on site. Our utility concierge will also set up all your utilities for you for free! We simply do what you need better and we encourage you to compare us with anyone else in the area.
This is a business that takes many years to learn to do it right, not one where someone takes a class and a test and opens up a full time home inspection company. Not only do we inspect full time (since 1998), we operate a DBPR approved home inspection school and have very expensive equipment. Some of our home inspection tools are very expensive and must be used every day to justify the price. We have the best equipment for the job that others simply won’t buy. We find issues others simply cannot or do not understand.
Pricing based on what YOU need.
Pricing is typically based on size, age and features of the home. Others may lead you down the "we're cheaper" road because that's all they can compete on. We offer 4 different inspection levels based on your needs and goals. Click here for package descriptions and pricing.
Tenant move in/move out inspections document the condition of the home via text, digital images and/or video. Files are printed and emailed to you as a
third party documentation service in order to avoid future or present disputes.
Moisture intrusion and mold inspections. We attempt to source your moisture intrusion or moisture migration, document any current and/or
potential adverse affects via visual, moisture meter and high resolution infrared thermal imaging. We are also able to take air or swab samples for the presence
or amplification of molds.
If your insurance company requires you to obtain a wind mitigation inspection (form 1802), we are certified to perform these. The inspection basically
confirms a list of construction methods that if in place can secure you discounts on the wind portion of your home owner’s insurance. Time frame is from ½ hour to 1.5
hours depending on how much information we can gather prior to the inspection. Cost is $150.
