Get the Information Your Insurance Agent Needs
A four-point inspection gives your insurance company a focused look at four major systems. As a result, our service helps you document the property's condition and understand any visible concerns that may need attention.
We provide clear findings and supporting photographs so you can take the next step with your agent. First, share the carrier's requested form and instructions when scheduling so we can confirm the inspection requirements.
This is a limited insurance inspection. In contrast, a full home inspection provides a broader evaluation for buyers. You can schedule that service separately.
What We Inspect
The Four Systems That Define the Inspection
We document accessible components and visible conditions. However, safety, access, utilities, and the requested form determine what we can evaluate.
Roof
We document the roof covering, age when supported by available information, visible condition, and evidence of leakage or deterioration. In addition, we evaluate remaining useful life when the applicable inspection form requires it.
Electrical
We review accessible service and distribution panels, visible wiring, and observable electrical concerns. We also use photographs and equipment information to document the installation and any conditions needing further evaluation.
Plumbing
We review accessible supply and drain piping, fixtures, connections, and the water heater. In addition, we document visible leaks, deterioration, pipe materials, and available age or update information.
Heating & Air Conditioning
We document accessible HVAC equipment, available age information, operating condition, and visible concerns such as leakage or condensate drainage issues. We also check operation where safe and practical.
Our Process
From the Insurance Request to the Finished Report
Confirm the Request
First, send your property address, deadline, and any inspection form or instructions from your insurance agent.
Inspect the Four Systems
Next, we examine accessible roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC components. We also collect supporting photographs and equipment information.
Receive Your Report
Afterward, you receive the inspection documentation with our observations. It also identifies areas that need attention or further evaluation.
Submit & Follow Up
Finally, provide the report to your insurance agent. If the carrier requests repairs or additional documentation, we can then discuss the inspection follow-up.
Clear Findings & Next Steps
Know What Needs Attention Before You Move Forward
If we observe leaks, deterioration, electrical concerns, or equipment problems, we document them accurately and explain the recommended next step. For example, some conditions may need evaluation or repair by a qualified contractor.
Your insurance company determines whether a condition affects eligibility and what documentation it will accept. Therefore, an inspection report does not guarantee coverage, renewal, or a particular premium.
After a contractor completes the work, contact us to discuss any needed reinspection or report update. Before proceeding, we also confirm the follow-up scope and fees.
Frequently Asked Questions
4-Point Inspection Questions
Understanding the Inspection
What is a four-point inspection?
A four-point inspection is a focused evaluation of a home's roof, electrical, plumbing, and heating/cooling systems for insurance review. In other words, it documents observed conditions within a limited scope.
When do I need one?
Your insurance agent or carrier will tell you whether you need a four-point inspection for your application, policy change, or renewal. However, requirements vary. Therefore, confirm the requested form and deadline before booking.
Does a four-point replace a full home inspection?
No. It does not provide the broader evaluation of the home's structure, interiors, exterior, and other components included in a general home inspection. For that reason, buyers should consider a full inspection separately.
Insurance Decisions and Follow-Up
Does the report guarantee insurance coverage?
No. The insurance company makes the coverage decision under its underwriting guidelines. For example, it may request repairs, further documentation, or additional inspections after reviewing the report.
What happens if problems are found?
We document the observed conditions and explain recommended next steps. However, your carrier determines which items affect eligibility. If repairs require an appropriately qualified contractor, arrange that work first. Afterward, your carrier may request updated photographs, documentation, or a reinspection.
Additional Services and Preparation
Is wind mitigation included?
Wind mitigation is a separate inspection focused on wind-resistant construction features. However, let us know if your agent has requested both so we can discuss scheduling them together.
How should I prepare?
Provide safe access to the electrical panels, water heater, HVAC equipment, plumbing beneath sinks, and exterior. Also, share any available installation or repair records. Utilities should be on when safe. However, do not energize damaged equipment or remove electrical covers yourself.
Report Requirements and Commercial Properties
How long is a four-point report valid?
The acceptable report age depends on the insurance company's requirements. Therefore, ask your agent whether the carrier accepts an existing report or requires a new inspection.
Can you inspect a commercial building?
Commercial properties can require different forms and inspector qualifications. For that reason, send the carrier's written requirements before booking so we can confirm whether the requested inspection is within our scope.
