What It Is

What Is a 4-Point Inspection?

A 4-point inspection is a focused assessment of the four most critical systems in your home: the roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. Florida insurance carriers require this inspection for homes that are 25 years or older before issuing or renewing a homeowners policy.

Unlike a full home inspection, which covers hundreds of items, a 4-point inspection is specifically designed to give insurers a snapshot of your home's major systems. Our reports are formatted to meet common insurance underwriting requirements.

The Four Systems

What We Inspect

Each system is evaluated for age, condition, and insurability. Our report documents findings with photos and clear descriptions.

Roof System

Age, type, condition, and visible damage. Florida's intense sun and storm activity make roof condition the top factor in insurance decisions.

Shingles, tiles, metal, flat roofs -- we document material, age, and any signs of leaks, missing sections, or deterioration.

Electrical System

Wiring, panels, circuit breakers, and safety compliance. Outdated or hazardous components are common in older Florida homes.

We flag aluminum wiring, Federal Pacific panels, double-tapped breakers, and any code violations that affect insurability.

Plumbing System

Supply lines, drains, water heaters, and visible leaks. Polybutylene and galvanized pipes are major red flags for Florida insurers.

We identify pipe material, water heater age, active leaks, and drainage issues that could lead to denied coverage.

HVAC System

Heating, cooling, and ventilation equipment age, condition, and operational efficiency -- critical in Florida's humid climate.

We document unit age, last service date, and any visible deficiencies that could affect your insurance application.

Who Needs It

Do You Need a 4-Point Inspection?

Most Florida insurance carriers require a 4-point inspection for any home that is 25 years or older. If your home was built before 2000, there is a very high chance your carrier will ask for one before issuing or renewing your policy.

Even if your carrier does not require it, getting a 4-point inspection before listing your home for sale or before a policy renewal can help you identify and fix issues before they become deal-breakers.
