State-certified (CCC1334700), fully insured.
Inspection Types
- Pre-purchase — for buyers and investors. Identifies condition, remaining useful life, and any near-term capital expense before closing.
- Lender due-diligence — for commercial real estate financing. Specific report formats accepted by major lenders.
- Post-storm — after hurricanes and named storms. Critical for insurance claim documentation within carrier deadlines.
- Insurance underwriting — for new policy or renewal underwriting requirements.
- Warranty inspection — manufacturer-required periodic inspection to maintain warranty coverage.
- Routine — annual or semi-annual capital-planning inspections.
