Expert 4-Point Inspections in Miami-Dade County, FL
A 4-point inspection reviews four home systems that Florida insurance carriers scrutinize most: roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. In Miami-Dade County, many homes were built decades before today's stricter building codes. Insurance companies often require this inspection before issuing or renewing a policy on older properties. Our licensed inspectors document the age, condition, and visible deficiencies of each system. We photograph the electrical panel, check pipe materials under sinks and at the water heater, assess the HVAC air handler and condenser, and evaluate the roof covering for damage or wear. You receive a signed, photo-documented report ready to submit directly to your insurance carrier or agent. If your carrier flags a system, knowing what was found gives you time to address it before coverage is denied or limited. Miami-Dade homeowners buying, selling, or switching carriers rely on this report to keep their insurance process moving. Call Affordable Home Inspections to schedule your 4-point inspection today.
