Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a home inspection cost in Sanford, FL?
A standard home inspection in Sanford starts at $375 for most single-family homes, with final pricing based on the size and age of the property—larger and older homes may require more time and cost more. Additional services such as mold testing, sewer scopes, and 4-point inspections are available for an additional fee. We offer quick, free quotes by phone or text and can provide an exact price right away at (407) 644-6194.
How long does a home inspection take?
A full home inspection typically takes 3 to 4 hours for most homes. Larger properties or homes with additional features such as pools, guest houses, or older systems may take longer. When possible, we may assign multiple inspectors to help keep the process efficient and reduce wait times. New construction phase inspections, including pre-slab and pre-drywall, usually take 1 to 3 hours per visit. Clients are welcome to attend the inspection, and many buyers find it helpful to be present for at least part of the process. Most people choose to arrive toward the end for the walkthrough of findings.

Do I need a home inspection for a new construction home in Sanford?
Yes, and it matters more than most buyers realize. New homes can still have defects. We regularly find issues such as missed insulation, improper plumbing installations, electrical concerns, and framing problems, even in brand-new builds. That’s why we recommend a three-phase new construction inspection process: Pre-slab inspection (before the foundation is poured) Pre-drywall inspection (while the framing and systems are still visible) Final inspection (before closing) Once drywall is installed, many issues become hidden and much harder to identify or correct. Catching them early helps ensure your home is built the way it was intended.
What is a four point inspection and when do I need one?
A four point inspection evaluates the four main systems of a home: roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC (heating and air conditioning). In Florida, insurance companies often require this inspection before issuing or renewing a homeowners insurance policy, typically for homes that are 25 years or older. The goal is to confirm that these key systems are in acceptable condition and not an immediate risk. It’s important to note that a four point inspection is not as detailed as a full home inspection. It does not evaluate cosmetic items or provide a full property overview. Instead, it focuses specifically on the systems insurance companies care about most when determining coverage. If you’re buying or insuring an older home in the Orlando area, there’s a strong chance you’ll need one and sometimes quickly during the insurance underwriting process. We can complete the inspection and provide the required documentation for your insurance provider.
What is a wind mitigation inspection and can it lower my insurance?
A wind mitigation inspection documents how your home is built to resist wind damage. This includes key features such as roof shape, roof covering, roof deck attachment, and opening protections like hurricane shutters or impact-rated glass. In Florida, insurance companies are required to offer discounts based on these wind-resistant features. If your home qualifies, the savings can be significant, often enough that the inspection pays for itself very quickly. We complete wind mitigation inspections for both homebuyers during the purchasing process and current homeowners looking to reduce insurance costs. The inspection typically takes about 45 minutes, and we do need access to the attic as part of the evaluation. We perform these inspections throughout Central Florida and provide the documentation needed for your insurance provider to apply any eligible discounts.
How soon will I get my inspection report?
Most reports are delivered within 24 hours, guaranteed. You’ll receive a secure web link along with a downloadable PDF version of your full inspection report, making it easy to review or forward to your agent, lender, or insurance company. Your report is provided through our Spectora software and includes color photos, clear descriptions, and easy-to-follow summaries. It’s designed to be simple to navigate on any device phone, tablet, or computer.
Can I attend the home inspection?
Yes, and we encourage it when possible. Many clients choose to join toward the end of the inspection so we can walk through the home together and review any findings without interrupting the inspection process. If you’re attending, you can simply arrive near the estimated completion time, we can also give you a call when we’re getting close so timing is easy. If you’re unable to attend, we still make sure you’re fully informed. We always call you to review our findings before the written report is delivered. If you’re working with a real estate agent, we also coordinate with them to ensure everyone is on the same page.
What is the HomeTech Buyer Protection Program?
Buying a home doesn’t always go as planned. If you’re under contract, schedule an inspection with us, and the deal falls through, we’ll give you $50 off your next inspection when you find your next home. No paperwork, no hassle—we take care of it automatically. It’s just a simple way to make things a little easier if your first deal doesn’t go through.
Do you offer a paid-at-closing option for home inspections?
Yes, we do offer a paid-at-closing option for some buyers who prefer to defer payment during the home buying process. It’s not available in every situation, but we understand that timing can be tight during a purchase. Reach out to us and we’ll talk through your options and see what works best for you.
