Add-on Services
Four Point Inspection
Any homes that were built prior to 2005 typically benefit from a 4-point report of major infrastructures. The four points include Electrical, Plumbing, Roof/Structure, and HVAC. Insurance companies will then use these reports to qualify your home for different rates and coverages. Contact us today for a four-point inspection and our team can provide a thorough report in no time at all.
* Citizens forms are used for this inspection.
Wind Mitigation
Having your new home inspected for wind damage is very important for properties in the panhandle due to the higher risk of severe storms and hurricanes. At POMI Services, we will do a full wind mitigation inspection to determine if your home will be able to withstand high winds. Once we determine the stability of the home, we can provide affordable and efficient solutions to increase the safety of the home. Give our team a call today at 850-586-1934 for more information on our storm and wind mitigation inspections.
* Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Forms are used for this inspection.
Pool and Spa Inspections
If you move into a home that has a pool or spa and needs repairs or maintenance, this could cause unwanted headaches and potentially high expenses. However, if you have a pool inspection before purchasing the home (in conjunction with a traditional home inspection), you can avoid this added cost and prevent a future headache. We look thoroughly at everything that has to do with the pool including plumbing, filtration, maintenance equipment, and condition of the pool lining.
Roof Inspections
Insurance agencies usually call for these when entering a new insurance contract. These inspections deal exclusively with the roof decking, shape, age, and condition of the coverings (i.e. shingles). We look thoroughly for any damage and anything that may cause future damage. A good solid roof is arguably the most important part of a home and in high-wind prone areas it is of utmost importance that your roof is in good shape.
Citizens forms are used for this inspection.
Walk & Talk
The Walk and Talk inspection is a less expensive and shorter alternative to a full general home inspection. The inspector will walk the property with you for about 1.5 hours, examining all major components and addressing any questions you may have. While you won't receive a formal report, the inspector will offer recommendations to help you make an informed decision when buying or selling a home.
Wood Destroying Organisms (WDO) Inspections
PERFORMED ONLY WITH GENERAL HOME INSPECTION
A WDO inspection, aka Termite inspection, is crucial in the State of Florida since the conditions are ideal. A wood-destroying organism (WDO) means an arthropod or plant life which damages and can re-infest seasoned wood in a structure. We understand how important it is to perform these inspections on your home. Although, we do not provide treatments if evidence is found. Because of this strategy, you have peace of mind that we are not there to sell you a service or termite warranty. During a WDO inspection, we look for Subterranean Termites, Drywood Termites, Wood Decay Fungi, Powder Post Beetles, and Old House Borers.
* POMI Services is not a licensed pest control company. The WDO inspection is performed by a licensed WDO inspector at the same time as the home inspection thus eliminating third party scheduling conflicts. Same-day report delivery with a full photo journal to accompany every report.
