About us

Shelton Home Inspections is a 2x Super Service Award winner with 18 years of home inspection experience & 40 years of termite inspection experience. We carry a separate license for the termite and home inspection services allowing you to hire 1 company for not only these two inspections but we can also complete the 4 Point and Wind Mitigation Insurance inspections which are needed for homeowners insurance quotes. In addition, we also provide thermal imaging (to locate roof and roofing leaks, home efficiency leaks, etc), roof certifications, and other unique inspections. A full detailed home inspection includes all of the "systems and components" of the home, a Wood-Destroying Organism (WDO) inspection report (also known as a termite inspection) including a detailed graph (see images on our profile) of all WDO/termite damage (including recommendations for the appropriate treatment if applicable), activity and evidence found in the home, and the 4 Point and Wind Mitigation Insurance Inspections for insurance underwriting. We also provide Pre-Sale inspections so you can prepare your home to be listed on the market. The pre-sale inspection typically includes plumbing, electric, roof and HVAC and is a phenomenal sales tool once the corrections have been made! Call today 727-954-0503!

Could not be happier with the services provided. Prompt communication through out the entire process. They were beyond thorough in the inspection. The report was received the next way and was excellent. Best home inspectors, I have ever worked with!

Zack arrived right on time, and immediately got started with the inspection. He was very professional, friendly, and thorough. The inspection report was e-mailed to me the following morning so I was able to meet the insurance company deadline. I will definitely use this company for any future needs.

Very well. Zack showed up exactly on time. Was very knowledgeable and was able to explain things to us in terms we could understand. A few days later when I was planning the repairs he identified, I had a question and called the office. Christina had Zack call me back within minutes and answered exactly what I needed to know. I still have one repair to be done and after that I will have them come back out for the reinspection for the insurance company. Very friendly and knowledgeable and professional!

Steve, the inspector, spent five plus hours looking at the home from top to bottom. No issue was too small. Everything was documented on paper with photos. At the end of the inspection he reviewed his finding with us. He noted all items that needed to be corrected for the 4 point inspection. One re-inspection was included in the price. We have bought/sold several homes in the past ten years and this was the most complete inspection we have ever seen.

Everything went well from beginning to end. Having the added bonus of a termite inspection in conjunction with the home inspection is peace of mind that other companies cannot offer - and certainly not for the competitive cost of Shelton Home Inspections. Communication was prompt and courteous, and the inspector was professional and very helpful. He went over the report with me in great detail and provided the report via email the next day, as promised. I appreciated the Angie's List discount, the efficiency with scheduling, and ability to pay by check the day of the service. Would highly recommend and definitely use again.

Spectacular! Steve was incredibly meticulous in reviewing all pertinent systems, electrical, plumbing, air conditioning, appliances, etc. He provided photos and detailed explanations of each and every item. We were totally pleased that we found Shelton Home Inspections on Angie's List. The cost was not only reasonable but offered high value as well.
Description of Work: This was a pre-sale condo inspection which required a through analysis of all things mechanical, etc. before moving forward with the realtor and seller.

Everything was covered on what appeared to be every inch of the house; in a very thorough and professional manner. We hired this company twice and also had them follow up with a 4 point inspection as well as a wind mitigation for the Insurance company and proof of eligibility for discounts for energy savings!! Steve and his team are well worth every penny spent and I would recommend him to every one!

Superb job. Shelton did extremely detailed inspection. He was prompt and very professional. He explained things when I asked questions during the inspection. He delivered the written report when he said he would. The 25 page report had more than ample explanatory texts and embedded photos of items. Items were prioritized into items needed action and items just needing attention. He was on site working for a couple hours. Very reasonable cost. Would use again without hesitation.

I did not feel that the inspection was very comprehensive. I wanted the evaluation in writing and he did not give it to me. He never sent me anything in writing. I think he came fairly quickly. I paid for a service that I did not really receive. He just gave me a verbal, quick reading.
Description of Work: I think I used him a year or two ago to look at a foundation crack.

Shelton did not perform the service for me, but did it for the homeowner. I am the insurance agent for the homeowner. Since this is the third inspection that Shelton has done for my clients, I can compare their service versus other inspectors. We receive hundreds of these inspections during the year. Shelton is consistently accurate and timely. It is important for us, as your insurance agent, to get this report to the insurance company with all the needed data and accompanying photos. Shelton does a superior job. My clients that have used them have all said they were professional and were on time for their appointment.
Description of Work: Shelton provided a Wind Mitigation Inspection and a 4 Point Inspection. The 4 Point is an inspection required by most Florida insurance companies on homes over 30 years old. The Wind Mitigation is optional, but gives the homeowner a chance to save money on their home insurance based on the wind-resistant features of the home.

Found many minor electrical and plumbing items to fix (about 10 each category) Also about 40 "handyman" type fixes. We did NOT buy that house when inspector pointed out no permit on record for the garage conversion to living space.. I went to county building office and found it was UNpermitted, so I decided NOT to buy that house, even though the work for the "new, bigger living room" looked good. Report was well done, professional, and many pictures. 45 pages total for biggest one.

I showed up to the inspection near the end upon being greeted by the inspector who was very nice. We waited for my wife to arrive then went through his findings of the house, first showing us detailed pictures from his iPad along with descriptions and recommendations. After that he walked us to each of the areas shown in the pictures and answered any questions we had. I felt he was honest and gave us an accurate inspection as if it was his house. A+ Inspection in my book!

I used Steve based on my realtor's recommendation. Excellent choice. Steve was punctual, professional, and extremely thorough. His report was comprehensive, and was accompanied with clear photos that illustrated the points made in the report. His office was great to work with, and we had an electronic copy of the report by early the next morning. Buying a house is a lot less scary when you have Steve's report in your back pocket.
