 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Essential Home Inspections for a home inspection in Brooksville and had a great experience. Philip was professional, on time, and very detailed throughout the inspection. He explained what he was seeing and answered all of our questions without rushing. The report was delivered the same day with clear photos and explanations, which really helped us understand the condition of the home. I would definitely recommend Essential Home Inspections to anyone buying or selling!

FAQ

Home Inspection Process FAQs

How much does a Home Inspection cost?

The cost of a Home or Condominium Inspection will vary, based on square footage and other variables. Insurance underwriters may require additional forms and reports, which will affect pricing. We offer competitive rates, as well as discounts for on-site multiple reports. A more important question would be “how thorough will the inspector be?”. Be certain that your choice of Inspectors is an informed decision. Not all Inspectors have the same qualifications or certifications, and you may have specific requirements. Ask if your Inspector meets your need.

Can you Inspect for Insurance Wind Mitigation & 4 Point ?

We can perform wind mitigation verification and 4 point inspections as an ancillary service while providing a Home Inspection, or as a stand-alone Inspection. This verification may reduce the cost of Homeowner’s Insurance or ensure coverage.

How do I schedule an Inspection?

Call our office during regular hours (7:00 AM-8:00 PM EST) and our office staff will assist you in every step of the process, including billing, property access, and contact information.

Do you provide “Same-Day” Reports?

We do provide a report on the day of Inspection. We feel it is important for you to review our findings. We will provide a full written report on the day of the inspection. There are rare cases causing exceptions to a same day report due to extensive damage or more in depth research needing to be performed to provide 100% accurate information to our clients.

Do you provide reports to everyone involved in the Real Estate transaction?

We work only for our clients, whether it be the buyer, seller, or current owner of any particular property. Any report will be issued to that client alone, unless we are otherwise instructed to do so in writing.

Can you perform WDO (termite) inspections?

Unfortunately, no. Florida law allows only licensed WDO inspectors to perform a wood destroying organism inspection. We will inspect for and report on any evidence of pest/rodent infestation that is visible. We do work closely with inspectors who are WDO Licensed and can put you in contact with them.

Do all utilities have to be turned on for a Home Inspection?

It is not necessary for all utilities to be on at the time of inspection. This will result in an incomplete report. If the water service is not on, plumbing can’t be verified. If electricity is not on, we cannot verify proper operation of certain appliances or components. If gas service is not supplied, some gas furnaces or water heaters cannot be verified as operational. We can inspect without these services, but it is suggested that all utilities be on to avoid a re-inspect fee for returning to the property for additional inspection and verification.
