How long does a full home inspection take in South Florida?

Most homes take 2 to 4 hours on site depending on size and age. The written report is delivered within 24 hours.

Should I attend the inspection?

You're welcome to. Most clients join for the last hour so we can walk the findings together before the report is written.

Do you use drones on the roof?

No. Every accessible roof is laddered and walked by hand. Drones miss soft decking, cracked tile you can only find underfoot, and flashing detail.

Does a full home inspection satisfy my insurance company?

Not by itself. Florida insurers usually want a 4-point inspection and a wind mitigation report. We can bundle both with the full inspection in one visit.

Residential Inspection

Full Home Inspection — South Florida

A Primetime full home inspection covers every accessible system in the property — foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, structure, doors, windows, and appliances. We walk the roof by hand, get in the attic, and put eyes on every mechanical system so nothing is guessed at.

What we inspect

Roof: hand-walked, tiles/underlayment, flashing, penetrations
Structure: foundation, framing visible in attic and crawlspace
Electrical: main panel, sub-panels, GFCI/AFCI, grounding, sample outlets
Plumbing: supply materials, drain lines, water heater, sample fixtures
HVAC: air handler, condenser, ductwork, temperature split
Interior: doors, windows, walls, ceilings, floors, staircases
Exterior: siding, soffits, grading, drainage, driveway/walkway
Attic & insulation, ventilation, moisture indicators
Appliances (built-in) tested at normal controls

When to order it

Before closing on any residential purchase
End-of-warranty check on a new build (usually month 11)
Pre-listing inspection so sellers price with no surprises
After a major storm, remodel, or roof replacement

What to expect on inspection day

Before we arrive

You confirm access to the attic, electrical panels, water heater, and any locked rooms. Utilities should be on. We'll text an ETA the morning of.

On-site (2–4 hours)

We walk the roof by hand, enter the attic, test every accessible system, and photograph every finding. You're welcome to walk the last hour with us.

Report within 24 hours
