4-Point Inspection Tampa
Insurance companies sometimes require a 4-point report to get an overview of the condition of the roof, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing systems. They want to make sure all four systems are in good working order or have been updated before providing insurance on the property.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pass a 4-point inspection?
A 4-point inspection is not a pass or fail. It simply reports the condition and age of the four main systems: roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. However, the insurance company may require certain repairs before issuing coverage.
How long is a 4-point inspection good for?
A 4-point inspection is typically valid for the length of the insurance policy or until the insurance company requests a new one. A new inspection is often required when the home is sold.
How long does a 4-point inspection take?
Most 4-point inspections take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size, age, and condition of the home.
Will the inspector need to return after repairs?
If repairs are required by the insurance company, the inspector may need to return to verify the work and issue an updated report. A trip charge may apply.
Is a 4-point inspection enough when buying a house?
No. A 4-point inspection is limited and intended for insurance purposes only. A full home inspection is strongly recommended for buyers.
