The Inspection Report:
The defining part of a home inspection is the quality of the report provided to the home buyer. The Quality Home Inspection report is a narrative style report that is specific to the home you are purchasing. Any issues found during the inspection are properly described, and the report is illustrated with pictures taken during the inspection. Your report can be emailed to you, picked up by you on line, or printed and mailed to you. We are proud to utilize the HomeGauge reporting system, the premier inspection report in the industry.
Additional Types of Inspections we offer:
Wind Mitigation Inspections; These inspections use a specific state approved form and are used to determine the construction of the home for insurance purposes, and may qualify the homeowner for a discounted insurance premium. The wind mitigation report with required photographs is sent out via email in PDF format the day of the inspection to you and/or your insurance agent. The wind mitigation report appears at the end of your whole house inspection report if you have a wind mitigation performed with your whole house inspection.
4 Point Inspections; These inspections are performed for insurance purposes to determine the age and condition of the roof, plumbing, electrical and heating/air conditioning systems. These are usually requested by insurance companies for homes 20 years and older. The report is sent to you and/or your agent the day of the inspection in PDF format, and includes the required pictures.
Roof Certification Forms; Commonly called a "Citizens roof condition certification form", these forms are used to provide an opinion to your insurer about the age, condition and the remaining life of the roof covering. These are generally required on homes over 15 years of age by Citizens insurance. These forms are emailed to you and/or your agent the day of the inspection in PDF format.
