Licensed Building & Roofing Contractor · Licensed Home Inspector

The inspector who has already built homes like yours — and re-roofed them.

Most home inspections are done by someone who only reads about roofs and structures. Your
Florida home inspection is done by a Florida contractor who builds and re-roofs them — and also
holds a Home Inspector license. You walk into your closing with your eyes open, not your fingers crossed.

Home Inspections

Know exactly what you’re buying — before you own it.

Every inspection is documented with photos and a clear, plain-English report. No jargon, no
scare tactics — just what’s sound, what needs attention, and what it will actually take to fix it, from
someone who’s done the fixing.

🏠

Full Home Inspection

Roof, structure, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and moisture — top to bottom, with a contractor’s eye for
what a defect really costs to correct.

📋

4-Point Inspection

Roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC — the report Florida insurers require to write or renew a policy on
an older home. On the insurer-ready form, without the back-and-forth.

🌀

Wind Mitigation

Documents the wind-resistant features of your home. When features qualify, this is the report that can
reduce your windstorm insurance premium — real savings, on the OIR-B1-1802 form.

🧰

Roof Certification & Condition

An honest roof age and condition assessment from a licensed roofing contractor — the difference between
a guess and a professional opinion insurers and buyers trust.

Why it’s different

Two ways to find out what’s wrong with a house.

The usual way

A general inspector notes what looks off, hands you a checklist, and
you’re left to guess what it means, who to call, and what it costs. The real bills arrive after
you own it.

Your way

A licensed building and roofing contractor who has assembled and
repaired these exact systems tells you what’s wrong, why it matters, and what correcting it truly
takes — before you sign.

Florida insurance

In Florida, the wrong roof or an undocumented home can mean non-renewal — or a premium you didn’t budget for.

A 4-Point and a wind-mitigation report are how you get ahead of it. Insurers price older homes on
documented condition and wind-resistant features — when yours qualify, the wind-mit form is what lets the
credit apply. And when something needs work, you hear it first — from someone who can tell you what the fix
actually involves.

Any premium change depends on your
insurer and your home’s actual features — this is documentation, not a guaranteed discount.

System by system

What your Florida home inspection covers.

A full Florida home inspection is a top-to-bottom visual review of the systems that decide
whether a house is safe, insurable, and worth the number on your contract. Here’s what gets looked at — and
why each one matters before you own it.

🏚️

Roof & attic

Covering age and condition, visible
leaks, decking, flashing, and ventilation. In Florida the roof drives both your insurance and your biggest
repair risk, so it’s read by a licensed roofing contractor’s eye — not a guess.

🧱

Structure & foundation

Framing, load paths, slab
and wall cracks, and signs of settlement or prior repair — assessed by someone who has actually built
these structures.

🔌

Electrical

Panel, breakers, grounding, GFCI
protection, and the outdated or recalled equipment Florida insurers routinely flag on a 4-point.

🚿

Plumbing

Supply lines, drains, the water heater, and
pipe materials — like polybutylene — that can decide whether a carrier will write your policy at all.

❄️

HVAC

Age, condition, and operation of the cooling and
heating system — the fourth pillar of the 4-point, and a major cost if it’s near the end of its life.

💧

Moisture & envelope

Windows, doors, water
intrusion, and the hidden moisture that quietly feeds Florida’s most expensive repair bills.

Buyers across Central Florida order a Florida home
inspection for a few clear reasons:

  • Before closing — to know the true condition of a home before the money moves.
  • For insurance — a 4-point and wind mitigation report to write or renew a policy.
  • For a roof decision — an honest read on how many years the roof has left.
  • For peace of mind — a documented baseline of the home you’re about to own.

Every part of a Florida home inspection is a visual assessment of
accessible systems — thorough, photo-documented, and honest about what can and can’t be seen on the day.

The process

How your Florida home inspection actually goes.

No mystery, no pressure — here’s the path from the first call to the report in your inbox.

Before & during

  1. Schedule — tell us the property and what you need: full home, 4-point, wind
    mitigation, or a roof certification.
  2. On site — a licensed contractor-inspector walks the home, photographs every
    finding, and tests accessible systems.
  3. Walk with us — you’re welcome to join, ask questions in real time, and see the
    issues with your own eyes.

Your report

A clear, plain-English Florida home inspection report — delivered on the exact form your Florida carrier
accepts, so nothing holds up your policy. Inside you’ll find:

  • Photos of every material finding, captioned so you know what you’re looking at.
  • Priority — the cosmetic sorted from the costly, ranked so you know what to tackle first.
  • A builder’s estimate of what each fix actually takes — scope, effort, and rough cost.

Ready when you are — see the full
Florida home inspection service, review the
Florida licenses behind every report, check the

The credential that changes everything

Not just licensed to inspect — licensed to build and re-roof.

Timothy Parks holds three Florida licenses most inspectors will never hold: Certified Building
Contractor, Certified Roofing Contractor, and Home Inspector. When he flags a defect, it’s the assessment
of the person who could also correct it — and that’s a very different report to hand your family or your
lender.

🛡️

Built for trust

Real licenses, real photos, plain
English. No fabricated reviews, no scare tactics, no “#1” claims.

Fast, insurer-ready

4-Point and Wind-Mit delivered on
the exact forms Florida carriers require, formatted to be accepted.

📸

Documented

Every finding backed by photos you can hand
to a lender, an insurer, or a seller — evidence, not opinion.

Questions

Straight answers.

How do I get on the schedule?

Call (407) 383-9118 or send the request form — give us the property address, the service you need, and a
couple of times that work, and we’ll confirm your slot. Booking early in your inspection period is the
safest move so nothing gets squeezed against your closing date.

Can I come along during the inspection?

Absolutely, and it’s encouraged. Following a licensed contractor-inspector through the property is the
fastest way to understand your report — you see each item where it lives and can ask about it on the spot,
instead of decoding a PDF alone later.

What sets a contractor-inspector apart from a regular inspector?

A generalist can tell you something looks off. A licensed building and roofing contractor can tell you
why it’s off, how urgent it is, and what the repair actually costs — because he has done that repair.
That turns a checklist into an assessment you can negotiate or budget from.

Which Central Florida areas do you cover?

The Orlando metro and the counties around it — Orange, Seminole, Osceola, Lake, Polk, and Volusia. Not sure
if your address is in range? Send it over and we’ll confirm coverage before you book.

Do you handle property preservation for servicers?

Yes — securing, maintenance, and full photo-documented work orders for vacant and REO properties, sealed
to a tamper-evident record for audit-ready proof of work. See our
property preservation service.

Schedule

Book your inspection — know the house before you’re committed.

Tell us the property and what you need, and we’ll lock a time. Full home, 4-Point, wind mitigation, or roof
certification. Servicers & investors: request a property-preservation quote at the same number.
