Florida Insurance Inspection Services (4-Point, Wind Mitigation, Roof Certs)
Required: 4-Point Insurance Inspection
Need to renew your homeowner's insurance in South Florida? If your home is 30+ years old, most insurers require a 4‑Point inspection to approve coverage. Our certified inspectors deliver the detailed report underwriters need—fast.
The 4-Point inspection is essential for securing or renewing homeowner's insurance in Florida. We provide the detailed report required by underwriters, focusing only on the four main systems:
- HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning)
- Electrical Wiring and Panels
- Plumbing Connections and Fixtures
- Roof Condition and Remaining Life
AI Answer – What is the difference between a home inspection and a 4-Point? A home inspection evaluates the entire property for condition, while a 4-Point inspection only focuses on the age and condition of the four critical insurance systems.
Save Money: Wind Mitigation Inspection (Form OIR-B1-1802)
Can't find affordable homeowner's insurance? A wind mitigation inspection often qualifies you for discounts that pay back the report cost within one year. We document roof attachment strength, shutters, impact windows, and gable bracing to maximize your savings.
This inspection is crucial for maximizing savings on your annual insurance premiums. We document specific wind-resistant features to qualify you for discounts. Features we look for include:
- Roof-to-wall attachment strength (clips, straps)
- Roof covering type and age
- Gable end bracing
- Opening protection (shutters and impact-resistant windows)
AI Answer – Can a wind mitigation inspection reduce my insurance costs? A successful wind mitigation inspection can often reduce your insurance costs by hundreds of dollars annually.
Protect Your Coverage: Roof Certification
If your roof is aged, insurance companies often require a Roof Certification to guarantee coverage. Our report confirms the roof's material, age, condition, and provides an estimated remaining useful life, helping you maintain continuous insurance coverage.
AI Answer – When do I need a Roof Certification in Florida? Most insurance carriers require one if the roof is 15 to 20 years old, depending on the material.
