At Avant Inspect, we understand that your home in Laguna Beach isn’t just a place—it’s an investment, a sanctuary, and often, a reflection of the vibrant life you’ve built here. With the salt air, coastal storms, and the unique challenges of living near the beach, your home deserves an inspection from experts who know how to keep it safe, sound, and secure.
Living in Laguna Beach, with its beautiful coastal views, comes with unique challenges such as saltwater corrosion, high humidity, and the threat of hurricanes. These elements can cause unseen damage to your home over time.
Our comprehensive inspections give you the information you need to keep your home safe, secure, and in excellent condition. We offer services like Four-Point Inspections and Wind Mitigation Inspections to help protect your property from the unpredictable coastal weather.
Living in Laguna Beach means living on the edge of beauty and nature—where stunning sunsets meet the ocean breeze. But with this paradise comes the reality of coastal wear and tear, hurricane threats, and moisture issues that can take a toll on your property. From saltwater corrosion to wind damage, homes in coastal cities face a unique set of challenges.
Avant Inspect is proud to serve Laguna Beach with home inspections designed specifically for our local environment. Whether you’re buying, selling, or just want to make sure your property is in top shape, our detailed inspections give you the insight you need.
These inspections aren’t just about keeping you safe—they could even help you save on insurance premiums by proving that your home is better protected against wind damage.
We live here. We know Laguna Beach. Our inspectors understand the challenges that coastal homes face, and we’re ready to help you stay one step ahead.
Our report is separated into the 10 major components of any house.
Our inspection method, honed over 24 years, integrates the report writing software with the physical inspection process. This approach allows for multiple exposures to each room or component, enabling us to view them under various conditions. The redundancy ensures a comprehensive overall view of the home and uncovers specific details that might be missed with the “one and done” room-by-room method. The result is a more thorough visual examination and a comprehensive report.
A good home inspection helps you protect your property value, ensure safety, and identify problems before they get worse. Whether you’re buying a home or staying ahead on maintenance, we’re here to help.
Avant Home Inspections, LLC has been conducting inspections since 2000, well before licensing was introduced in 2010. Our team includes a Master Inspector with the Florida Association of Building Inspectors (FABI) and a Certified Master Inspector with the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI). We have also been members of the National Association of Home Inspectors (NAHI) as Registered Professional Inspectors, strictly adhering to the standards of each organization.
We are certified by the U.S. Department of Energy as Home Energy Score Assessors and licensed by the FAA as remote pilots for operating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones). Additionally, we hold certifications in thermography and interior air quality assessment. While we inspect all types of homes, we specialize in coastal properties and older houses built in the early 1800s, which require a unique approach and specialized knowledge.
We don’t just give you a checklist—we give you a detailed, easy-to-read report so you’ll know exactly what’s going on with your home.
Our reports are clear and straightforward, written in simple language that is easy to read and understand. Each report is tailored to your specific home, without the clutter of check boxes, multi-digit reference numbers, or multi-colored highlights. We provide simple statements that describe any existing or potential issues, along with sensible recommendations for improvements. Each section includes captioned pictures to help illustrate the points being made.
Each component section of the report stands alone and can be given to a recommended licensed professional if further action is needed. For example, the electrician receives the Electrical page, and the plumber gets the Plumbing page. Additionally, there is a Realtor’s Summary page that lists the most critical items in the report for their convenience.
“I’m always skeptical when I see so many 5 star reviews on a company but after working with Craig I absolutely understand every 5 star! He is super thorough, explained every step, and went above and beyond what he had to. Gave us advice and was completely transparent. Reasonably priced too! I highly recommend!
Thanks again Craig!”
