experienced home inspector Holiday

A Standard Home Inspection from Glisson Inspection Services is your comprehensive evaluation of a property's major systems and structural integrity. This service is essential for anyone purchasing an existing home, providing a detailed snapshot of its condition before you finalize your investment. Our inspection covers the roof, attic, exterior, foundation, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, interior, and insulation.

Our process begins with a scheduled, on-site examination that typically takes several hours, depending on the home's size and age. Using a combination of visual assessment, specialized tools, and decades of experience, we methodically inspect each component. We document our findings with notes and photographs, which are compiled into a clear, easy-to-understand digital report delivered to you promptly.

Choosing Glisson means you get more than just a report. You get a knowledgeable guide. We encourage you to be present at the inspection so we can walk you through our observations in real-time, explaining the significance of any issues we find. With our ASHI-backed standards and commitment to thoroughness, you gain the confidence to proceed with your real estate transaction, negotiate repairs, or plan for future maintenance, ensuring your new home is a sound and safe investment.

Hidden moisture is the primary cause of mold growth, which can impact your health and your home's structure. Our Mold Survey and Sampling service utilizes advanced Thermal Imaging Technology to detect temperature variations behind walls and under floors that indicate unseen moisture intrusion—a critical step before visible mold appears.

This service is vital for homeowners who suspect a moisture problem, have experienced past leaks, or are sensitive to air quality. It's also a prudent step during a standard home inspection in humid climates like Holiday. The process involves a non-invasive scan of the property with an infrared camera. When areas of concern are identified, we can take air or surface samples, which are sent to an accredited laboratory like ProLab for analysis to confirm the presence and type of mold spores.

By choosing Glisson, you benefit from a scientific, evidence-based approach. We don't guess; we use technology to pinpoint problems. Our detailed report includes thermal images and lab results (if sampling is performed), providing you with documented evidence to discuss with remediation professionals. This proactive service helps you safeguard your family's health and protect your property from long-term, costly damage caused by undetected mold.

Even brand-new homes can have issues. Our New Construction Inspection ensures your builder's work meets quality standards and adheres to building codes before your final walkthrough. Simultaneously, our 4-Point Inspection is often required by insurance companies for older homes to assess the condition of four key systems: Roof, Electrical, Plumbing, and HVAC.

The New Construction Inspection is for homebuyers having a house built or purchasing a newly constructed property. We conduct a series of inspections at critical phases (pre-drywall and final) to catch problems like improper framing, insulation, or wiring before they are hidden behind walls. The 4-Point Inspection is typically needed for homes over a certain age when obtaining or renewing homeowners insurance in Holiday. It provides insurers with a snapshot of the risk associated with these major, aging systems.

Our expertise in the construction industry gives us a keen eye for detail that others lack. We know how homes are built and where shortcuts are often taken. For new construction, we act as your independent advocate, ensuring you get the quality home you paid for. For 4-Point inspections, we provide a fair, accurate assessment that can help you secure insurance coverage. In both cases, our thorough, impartial reports give you the leverage and information needed for necessary corrections or informed decision-making.

A Wind Mitigation Inspection is a specialized evaluation of your home's features that reduce damage from high winds, potentially qualifying you for significant discounts on your homeowners insurance premium in Holiday. This service analyzes the construction of your roof, the type of roof-to-wall connections, the presence of storm shutters, and other reinforcing elements.

This inspection is specifically for homeowners looking to lower their insurance costs by documenting the hurricane-resistant features of their property. The process involves a detailed examination of your attic, roof covering, exterior openings, and foundation connection points. We complete the official insurance industry form (OIR-B1-1802 in Florida) with our findings, which you then submit to your insurance provider.

Choosing Glisson for your wind mitigation inspection means you get an inspector who understands the specific criteria insurance companies require. Our accurate and detailed report can help you maximize your potential savings. We take the time to explain which features of your home contribute to the discount, providing you with valuable knowledge about your property's resilience in addition to the documentation needed for financial benefit.
