Fall is a beautiful season in Southeast Florida. Unlike some parts of the country, fall here remains warm. Homeowners don’t need to prepare for harsh winter weather. Yet, the change in seasons still marks a good time for homeowners to tackle home maintenance tasks.

When it comes to your home’s roof, choosing the right material will impact its longevity, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Asphalt shingles are popular for roofs because they are cost-effective, versatile and durable. As a home inspection company, we want you to understand your home, especially when you are in the process of deciding whether to buy a property.

Buying a home is both stressful and exciting. In the overwhelming home buying process, remember to schedule a home inspection. While it's tempting to skip the inspection and hope for the best, it's not wise. A home inspection gives buyers an in-depth view of the home's current condition. Understanding the issues in the house you plan to purchase, allows you to make an informed decision.

The new year is almost here. The end of the year brings an opportunity to prepare for a fresh start. As you pack away the holiday decorations, take time to prioritize home improvement projects for the new year.

Coming up with gift ideas is challenging. If you want a unique gift this holiday season, consider giving home services. While not everyone on your list would enjoy HVAC maintenance for Christmas, new homeowners and older parents would be especially delighted. Grown children and aging parents may find keeping up with the expense and hassle of home maintenance taxing. Instead of another pair of socks, give the gift of home help.

Home maintenance is important! Staying on top of cleaning, system maintenance and regular repairs save you money in the long run. Plus, you’ll have peace of mind and confidence that your home looks and works its best.

The roof is an important part of a home’s structure. Homebuyers should pay close attention to the quality of the roof during the home buying process. Especially when purchasing an older home, the roof may show signs of aging or deterioration. Yet, even newer homes can have roof damage from extreme weather or poor installation.

Hurricanes are a part of life for Southeastern Florida. These high-powered storms can lead to costly wind damage for homes and businesses. Wind mitigation strategies help your home withstand wind damage.

One of the questions we frequently receive is how to know if a home needs a new roof. A roof replacement is one of the most expensive home maintenance jobs. When purchasing a new home, it’s important to determine the state of the existing roof. However, you may also choose to schedule a roof inspection at any point before you decide to invest in a new roof.
