Before you close on a house, an inspection tells you the condition of the roof, structure, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, which are the systems that cost the most to fix once the house is yours.

329 licensed inspectors are listed in Pinellas County. Featured is one of 6 spots above all of them — never more — and it also puts your card at the top of up to three city pages you choose.
Featured spots are paid placements. Every listing here is verified against the Florida DBPR record, paid or not.
Pinellas is the most densely built county in Florida, and most of it went up in one burst: the population grew by more than 135 percent during the 1950s, and the 1950s and 1960s together account for over 140,000 of the homes standing today. The median house here was built in 1977. That is four-point territory almost everywhere inland, where the roof, the panel and the original plumbing decide whether a policy gets written, and it is the reason the inspectors here see more older concrete-block homes than anyone else in the state.
Along the water the question changed in September 2024. Helene’s surge set a record of 7.2 feet at East Bay and cut the barrier islands off entirely. Any house that flooded then is subject to FEMA’s 50 percent rule: if repairs cost half or more of the structure’s value, the whole building has to be brought up to current flood code, which usually means raising it. The county has until the end of 2026 to finish its substantial-damage determinations, so if you are looking at a home that took water, ask whether that determination has been made and what it said. It is not something a standard inspection reports.
More inspectors in Pinellas have claimed their listings and attached their Google ratings than in any other county on the site, so you have something to compare beyond a license number.
For homebuyers
Buying a house?
A full inspection covers the whole structure — roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and more — so you know the real condition of the house before you close. It is different from a 4-point or wind mitigation, which are for your insurer, not for you.
A carrier will usually ask for a 4-point inspection on an older home before it writes a policy, and a wind mitigation is what earns the storm-resistance discounts. Both are done by the same licensed inspectors listed above, and both come round again each time you change carrier.
Own a home inspection business in Pinellas County?
Your license is already listed here, straight from the DBPR record. Claiming it is free: it puts your business name, phone number, website and services on the listing, and moves you above every unclaimed inspector in the county. A featured spot above every listing is $50 a month at the founding rate, which the first inspectors to take one keep for as long as they stay.
How do homeowners contact me?
Straight from your listing: your phone number dials and your website opens. There is no request form and nobody in the middle — we never see the call, we never send one homeowner to several inspectors, and we never charge per lead.
