Dade City homes started construction in 1800 with frame and masonry homes built on a pier and beam foundation. Your inspection team will need to have the knowledge to properly inspect homes of this age. Our experience with older homes, understanding what has and hasn’t been updated matters. Often, many repairs or projects have been done by an unlicensed individual and need a good trained and experienced investigative eye. This community was also constructed at a time when sewer lines could be compromised. Our inspection company offers a wide range of services so we can competently inspect the Dade City community regardless of age.

1. Every home starts with a solid foundation
Before the concrete is poured, we inspect readily visible foundation preparation, including excavation, footings, rebar placement, accessible components and underground utilities. Catching concerns early is important because many foundation elements cannot be inspected once the slab is poured.
2. Before the exterior walls are completed
we inspect visible masonry components, including block installation, lintels, reinforcement placement, and verify window, door, and garage-door opening sizes.
This inspection helps verify that construction is progressing according to the building plans before additional work covers these components.
3. This is the MILESTONE INSPECTION
This is often the most valuable phase of the construction process. Before insulation and drywall conceal the home’s systems, we inspect the readily accessible framing, plumbing rough-in, electrical rough-in, HVAC components, and visible structural connections.
Once drywall is installed, many of these areas are no longer visible, making this an important opportunity to document conditions before they are covered.
4. A full home Inspection with Blue tape
Before closing, we’ll perform a comprehensive Home Inspection of the completed home.
We evaluate the home’s readily accessible systems and components while also identifying cosmetic items commonly addressed during the builder’s final punch list. Items may include flooring, paint, trim, doors, cabinets, fixtures, windows, and other visible finishes.
