Be Prepared –  Hurricane Preparedness

Pro Home Inspection Services offers 360 Degree Photographs with each home inspection!

These photos provide home buyers and homeowners with the peace of mind that their property will be fully documented on the interior and exterior. Our reporting software allows you to inspect each room with your mouse. You can see all of the walls, floors, ceilings, light fixtures, personal property, furniture, special finishes, custom kitchens, etc.     

 We offer this service as our insurance inspections have revealed that most homeowners do not have adequate documentation to challenge the insurance company’s adjusters and their offer to settle. We take the guess work out of the adjuster’s game plan and we provide fully documented photos of each room. Most home buyers or owners do not have time to fully document the condition, finish, trim and furnishings in each room.

Being Prepared is Important!
