Protecting your home and securing affordable insurance coverage in Florida often requires specialized inspections. At the House Authority Inspection Service, we provide comprehensive 4-Point Inspections, Roof Certifications, and Wind Mitigation Verification services to help you meet insurance requirements and save on premiums.

4-Point Inspections

A 4-Point Inspection focuses on the four critical systems of your home:

  • Roof: Evaluates the condition, age, and remaining lifespan.
  • Plumbing: Checks for leaks, material types, and overall functionality.
  • Electrical: Assesses safety, wiring, and panel conditions.
  • HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning): Ensures proper operation and maintenance.

Insurance companies often require this inspection for homes over 20 years old to assess risk and eligibility.

Roof Certification

A Roof Certification Inspection verifies the integrity and durability of your roof. Our inspectors evaluate:

  • Compliance with Florida Building Codes.
  • Remaining lifespan and potential for leaks.
  • Structural soundness to withstand Florida’s weather conditions.

This certification is essential for insurance renewals and can provide peace of mind for homeowners.

Wind Mitigation Verification

Florida homeowners can save significantly on insurance premiums with a Wind Mitigation Inspection. This inspection identifies features that enhance your home’s resistance to wind damage, such as:

  • Roof-to-wall attachments.
  • Hurricane shutters or impact-resistant windows.
  • Roof geometry and secondary water barriers.

By submitting a Wind Mitigation Verification report to your insurer, you may qualify for substantial discounts.
