A full home inspection is for buying or selling a home. It is a detailed look at the readily accessible parts of the house. It is not an insurance form.
Clients often mix this up with a four-point or wind mitigation inspection. Those are insurance forms for a Florida homeowners policy. A full home inspection is the one you get before you buy, or before you list.
Every full home inspection includes a four-point inspection and a wind mitigation inspection for homeowners insurance, at no extra charge.
What we look at
We report on the readily accessible systems and components, including:
- Structure and foundation
- Electrical
- Plumbing
- HVAC
- Roof and attic
- Walls, floors, and ceilings
- Basement and crawl spaces
- Porches and decks
- Grading and drainage
- Exterior
- Windows and doors
- Appliances
- Lights and receptacles
- Safety features
- Pools
- Irrigation
You get a photo-heavy report of what the inspector noted.

Why should I get one?
A full home inspection can reveal hidden damage that would be costly to repair after you buy. It can also find hazards in the home that could put your family at risk.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging is included with every full home inspection. The camera shows temperature changes that are not obvious to the eye, such as a plumbing leak inside a wall or missing insulation.
Who this is for
Buyers and sellers. If your insurance company only asked for a four-point, wind mitigation, or roof certification, that is a different inspection. See those pages.
