Our Home Inspection Services
Valuecast, Inc. offers a wide range of home inspection services to meet your home and property needs.
Our Orlando home inspections usually identify areas of concern, or the need for maintenance, before these conditions create more costly repairs or replacements. More importantly, our home inspections focus on safety issues and can identify low-cost additions or upgrades that will make your home safer for your family and visitors. The home inspection will also educate you on the operation of your home, its primary systems and current methods or alternatives to costly maintenance. The benefits and peace of mind you gain from these home inspection services will far exceed the actual cost of the inspection itself.
Full Home Inspection
The full home inspection will provide a broad range of information about the major components and systems of the building. These are the roof, heating and air conditioning system, plumbing and electrical systems, foundation and structural components, garage or carport, interior walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors. It is a non-invasive assessment of the readily accessible areas and components in order to help you understand the true condition of the house.
Wind Mitigation Inspection
A Wind Mitigation inspection is designed to determine the structural ability of the home to withstand the forces of a wind storm. A standard form is filled out detailing several aspects, including roofing, roof structure and attachment, exterior opening protection (windows, doors), and whether the structure was built to newer or older standards. This is usually done for the insurance company to determine if the property is suitable for insurance discounts. This does not take the place of a Standard Home inspection.
Four Point Inspection
A Four Point Inspection focuses on four critical systems of a property: the roof, plumbing, electrical, and heating/air conditioning. This inspection is typically required by insurance companies to provide a quick overview of these systems’ conditions to assess the risk they are insuring. It is a general inspection and not as detailed as a standard Home Inspection, so it should not be considered a substitute for one. A Four Point Inspection helps insurance providers understand the basic functionality of these key systems.
Swimming Pool Inspections
Swimming pools are intricate systems with multiple components that must work together for safe and efficient operation. Ensuring safety features are in place is essential for proper function. Our inspection will cover the main accessible and visible components of the pool, including their functionality and safety features. This inspection helps identify potential issues, ensuring your pool is operating correctly and safely. A thorough review of the pool’s systems is crucial for maintaining a safe environment for users.
Seller’s Home Inspection
A Pre-Listing Home Inspection or Seller’s Inspection is an often overlooked but valuable tool for property sellers. This standard home inspection is done before listing to help sellers identify any issues or repairs that may need attention. Addressing these concerns before putting the home on the market can increase its value, improve its appeal, and help the sale process go more smoothly. By resolving potential problems early, sellers reduce the likelihood of surprises during negotiations and enhance their credibility with buyers.
Maintenance Inspection
This is an inspection done to help a homeowner evaluate what needs attention to provide proper maintenance and prevent future problems. It will also evaluate possible safety concerns, and is a great aid in having a happy, healthy and safe home. This is done as a Standard inspection, with an eye toward crucial maintenance areas. It is recommended to do this annually to prevent small items from becoming large problems. When you have your initial home inspection done prior to purchasing, ask us about booking an annual Maintenance Inspection and we’ll be sure to give you a discounted price.
Manufactured Home (Mobile Home) Inspection
Manufactured and mobile homes are constructed to different standards than site-built homes, though their basic functionality is similar. Understanding these differences is essential for accurately assessing their condition. Specialized training in this type of home ensures a thorough evaluation. The inspection covers the same scope as a Standard Home Inspection but is adapted to the unique aspects of manufactured and mobile homes. This process provides a comprehensive review of the property’s condition, identifying any issues specific to these structures.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Our Sewer Scope Inspection uses a specialized video camera to evaluate the condition of your property’s sewer line. Accessing the sewer through a clean-out opening, the inspection can detect potential issues like blockages, cracks, leaks, or damage. Following the inspection, you’ll receive a comprehensive report and video, offering a clear view of the sewer system’s health. This inspection is valuable for homeowners looking to maintain their property or buyers assessing a potential purchase, helping to prevent costly repairs and ensuring peace of mind.
Wood Destroying Organism (Termite) Inspection
Our Wood Destroying Organisms (WDO) Inspection, commonly referred to as a Termite Inspection, is designed to identify signs of termites and other wood-destroying pests that can threaten your property. This inspection provides a thorough evaluation to detect potential infestations and damage. After the inspection, you will receive a detailed report outlining the findings along with recommended treatments or preventive measures to protect your property. This proactive approach helps safeguard your home from costly structural damage caused by wood-destroying organisms.
Commercial Inspection
A commercial property is typically purchased for business purposes, making the inspection process more focused on functionality and risk rather than personal or emotional factors. A Commercial Inspection provides a thorough evaluation of essential systems like roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and the overall structure. The goal is to identify any issues that could impact the property’s value or operations. After the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report, helping investors and business owners make informed decisions regarding maintenance, repairs, or purchases.
