WHAT WE INSPECT
A decision-guided check of the systems that matter
Safe Harbor works through seven core systems of a Florida home — and rates every finding so you know exactly what needs attention now, what to keep an eye on, and what's fine. Documented with photos, explained in plain terms.
HOW WE RATE EVERY FINDING
No jargon — just what to do next
Serviceable at the time of inspection — nothing to act on right now.
A watch-list or maintenance item worth planning for before it grows.
Active damage, a credible near-term failure, or a safety / water-entry concern.
