Thinking about buying a brand-new home?

Don’t assume new means defect-free.

https://www.jgregoryinspections.com/new-construction-inspections

New construction homes are built by multiple contractors and subcontractors, and mistakes can happen at any stage of the process. Even if the home has passed required municipal inspections, an independent home inspection can still uncover issues involving:

• Roofing and flashing
• Electrical systems
• Plumbing
• HVAC installation
• Insulation
• Windows and doors
• Drainage and grading
• Framing and structural connections
• Incomplete or damaged components

At J. Gregory Home Inspections, we offer both pre-drywall inspections and final new construction inspections throughout Northwest Florida.

A pre-drywall inspection gives you a chance to evaluate components before they are covered by insulation and drywall, while a final inspection evaluates the completed home before closing.

Buying a new home is a major investment. Having it independently inspected can help you better understand the condition of the property before you take ownership.

🏡 **Does Your Florida Home Need a 4-Point Inspection?**

If you own an older home in Florida—or you're purchasing one—your homeowners insurance company may require a **4-point inspection** before issuing or renewing coverage.

But what exactly does a 4-point inspection look at?

It focuses on four major systems:

🔹 **Roofing**
🔹 **Electrical**
🔹 **Plumbing**
🔹 **Heating & Cooling (HVAC)**

A 4-point inspection is **not the same as a full home inspection**, and it isn't necessarily a simple “pass or fail.” The inspector documents the visible condition, age, materials, and characteristics of these systems, and the **insurance company ultimately determines whether the home meets its underwriting requirements**.

Our latest article explains:

✅ When a 4-point inspection may be required
✅ What inspectors look for in each system
✅ Common problems that can create insurance concerns
✅ Why roof age matters
✅ What happens when deficiencies are found
✅ The difference between a 4-point and wind mitigation inspection

🏠 How Long Do Roofs Really Last in Florida?

https://www.jgregoryinspections.com/articles/how-long-do-roofs-really-last-in-florida-a-home-inspector-explains

A roof may be advertised as a “30-year roof,” but Florida’s intense sun, heat, humidity, heavy rain, high winds, and hurricanes can have a major impact on its actual service life.

In our latest article, we break down the typical Florida life expectancy of:

🔹 Architectural and 3-tab shingles
🔹 Metal roofing
🔹 Tile roof systems
🔹 Flat and low-slope roofing

We also explain why tile roof life expectancy isn’t based on the tile alone. While concrete and clay tiles can last for many decades, the waterproofing underlayment beneath them typically has a much shorter service life and is an important factor when evaluating the overall roof system.

If you’re buying a home in Northwest Florida, understanding the roof’s age, condition, and remaining useful life can help you avoid unexpected expenses after closing.

👉 Read the full article to learn what Florida homebuyers should know about roof life expectancy.
