Frequently Asked Questions: Home Buyer’s Inspection
Are your inspectors licensed and insured in Florida?
Yes, 100%. All inspections are conducted by Florida DBPR licensed home inspectors who are certified through InterNACHI and possess Florida Licensed General Contractor expertise. We carry comprehensive Errors & Omissions (E&O) and General Liability insurance, protecting buyers, sellers, and agents.

What is the difference between a comprehensive home inspection and a 4-point inspection?
A comprehensive home inspection evaluates over 400 points across the entire property (including structure, appliances, doors, windows, and grading) for the buyer’s peace of mind. A 4-point inspection covers only 4 systems (Roof, Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC) specifically for insurance underwriting approval.
Are Thermal Imaging, Drone Roof Scans, and Pest Inspections included free?
Yes. Every comprehensive inspection includes infrared thermal imaging to detect hidden leaks, licensed drone aerial photography for high or steep roofs, and a preliminary visual pest inspection (checking for ants, roaches, termites; non-WDO), at no extra charge.
