  • Roof

Wind Mitigation

Wind Mitigation inspections allow homeowners to receive premium discounts on their insurance. These discounts are based on a home having certain wind-resistant features throughout the home. With Florida being prone to many Tropical Storms & Hurricanes, insurance companies & homeowners feel much more protected with homes that have these features. The areas inspected include:

  • Roof covering

One-Year Warranty Inspection

New construction homes typically come with a “1-Year Builder’s Warranty”. It’s crucial to take advantage of this to correct anything that may be wrong while your warranty still applies. Many of these issues are usually not visible to the naked or unprofessional eye. Common issues include:

  • Plumbing Leaks
  • Moisture Intrusion
  • Improper flashing
  • Ductwork Improperly Installed
  • Improper grading
  • And many more

We will come out & inspect all areas of the home for you and provide you with the necessary report to give to the builder in order to honor your warranty & process your repair requests.

Water Quality Tests

Homes with private water wells should be tested at least once every year. Private Wells are not regulated by the EPA, so it is the responsibility of the home owner to make sure their water is clean & safe. Some lenders may even require a water quality inspection as well in order to obtain financing.

Many private wells over time will contain very harmful bacterias’ that you don’t want being supplied to your home.

Lead-Based Paint Test

Lead paint tests should be considered for any home that was built before 1978, as many of these homes contained it.

Lead paint can be dangerous when it begins to deteriorate, crack, or peel. Lead is a toxic metal that can lead to a variety of health problems in humans, especially young children, and other at-risk groups.

WDO Inspection

The state of Florida ranks #1 for the highest risk of termite damage in the country. These organisms often go unnoticed, so it’s important to not overlook this and have us check all areas of your home to ensure the home won’t get damaged. A WDO Inspection checks for termites, wood destroying beetles, and wood decaying fungi.

NextGen Inspections has licensed WDO inspectors in the state of Florida. We offer WDO Inspections through our partnership with Termite Depot.

Mold/Indoor Air Quality Inspection

Mold can become a problem when there is too much of it, causes problems for your health, or when it is unsightly and causing damage to property. We offer both surface testing and indoor air quality testing. During our surfacing testing, we look for evidence of microbial growth and take swap samples to test at the lab. The indoor air quality test will involve us taking air samples to see how much, if any, of that microbial growth is actually airborne and flowing through your home.

Asbestos Tests

Asbestos was used extensively in home construction from the early 1940s through the 1970s. Prolonged exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to lung disease. It can be found in many areas including drywall, flooring, HVAC ducts, and many more. It wasn’t officially banned until 1989. If you have a home built before then it would be wise to have some areas checked.

Sewer Scopes

A sewer scope is a video inspection of the drain lines underneath the ground that aren’t readily visible. It checks to be sure that all of the drain lines are properly intact and not damaged in any way. These are highly recommended on older homes, new construction, and homes with a lot of nearby trees.

Pre-Slab Inspections

It is crucial to thoroughly inspect items during the pre-slab stage because many of the homes main components will be installed underground. Once that foundation is poured none of these items will be visible again and will be very difficult to fix if there are any issue. We will check all necessary components and make sure they are installed exactly according to the plans
