Commercial Building / Property Inspection
Before you purchase a new building for your business, contact our team! We will thoroughly inspect the property to ensure it’s a good purchase. Whether you need a heavy building (warehouse, industrial) or a light building (storefront, strip mall), we’re here to help.
New Construction Final Inspection
Make sure your newly constructed home is in tip-top shape with this inspection. We’ll carefully review everything in your home for common issues, including contractor shortcuts. When you discover issues before moving in, it makes it much easier for the contractor to fix them.

4-Point Inspection

Chinese Drywall Inspection
Starting at $200 ($400 for a Sample)
Chinese drywall can come with a whole host of problems. Not only does it smell awful, but it can also deteriorate some appliance connections and AC systems. Any home built between 2004-2008 can have drywall from China. Let us check for this potential issue before you invest in a home.
Re-Inspections
Starts at $275 – call for quote
Booking our Re-Inspection service is the best way to protect your investment. We’ll do one last inspection before you close on your home. Make certain the seller took care of your home repair request list.
Wind Mitigation
$175
(While doing a home inspection, add $25 if requested after completing the home inspection if we have the required pictures, and add a travel fee if done without a home inspection).
Living in Florida requires that you obtain a Wind Mitigation inspection for all homes with a building permit applied for prior to 3/1/02. As an added bonus, many insurers will give you a discount for newer homes by providing a Wind Mitigation inspection.
11-Month/Builder’s Warranty
Water Testing
$325
If the home you are buying is on a well for drinking water you want to make sure that the water is safe for human consumption. We recommend having a water treatment company to inspect the water treatment equipment. This is a service, we can provide for you as a minor addition to the cost of doing the home inspection. They will test to make sure the correct equipment is being used for the specific water coming out of the well.
They will test for:
• Hardness
• Hydrogen sulfides or sulfur
• Iron
• Total dissolved solids
• pH
• Tannins or color
In addition to the above, we offer more extensive testing as listed on our price list for Bacteria (E. Coli +Total Coliform), Chemical (Nitrates + Nitrites), and Lead.
Radon Testing
Starting at $215
Radon isn’t a substance that you want to be exposed to. In fact, it’s the second leading cause of all lung cancer deaths. Since you can’t see it, hear it, smell it, or taste it, we’ll check your future home for the presence of radon. According to the Florida Department of Health, 25-33% of homes in Southwest Florida have elevated levels of radon.
WDO/Termite Inspection
Starting at $95
Did you know that most people are unaware they’ve developed a termite infestation until the damage has already been done? Don’t let this happen to you. Instead, book a WDO/Termite Inspection to give yourself peace of mind. WDO/Termite inspections performed DL pest control.
Mold Testing
Starting at $250
Mold is a serious issue for homeowners. Not only can it cause several health issues, but it can also be very expensive to remedy. We’ll take air samples and let you know if mold is an issue in your future home.
