NOT INCLUDED: We also utilize satellite imagery to capture a view of your roof and property for the inspection. You are not expected to provide this for loss control assessment but it is included.
Unable to perform a self inspection through the LIGHTHOUSE INSPECTION application or via photos emailed to us? No worries. For an additional fee, we can arrange for a traditional home inspection. Rates average between $300-$500. Please contact your insurance agent immediately if this is a concern or email us at Support@simpleinspection.com
