About 40 Year Inspections
The 40 Year Recertification program was designed to ensure the structural and electrical integrity of a building for it's continued safe use. You will not be burdened with additional expenses for code upgrades or un-required improvements, which are not included under the 40 Year Recertification program.
All buildings, non-single family 2,500 sq ft (including duplexes in some counties) must be inspected both structurally and electrically after 40 years for "life safety" in order to get a "Certification of Occupancy". It must be recertified every 10 years thereafter.
The exact terms of compliance are mandated in your City or County's 40 Year Recertification Ordinance, which can be found on the county web sites below:
1. Our licensed and qualified inspection team will visit your building.
2. Once on-site, we will perform a structural & electrical inspection, interior & exterior, of your building as mandated by your County Ordinances (Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach).
3. If our inspection provides that everything is satisfactory and no repairs are necessary - skip to Item #6.
4. If our inspection provides that repairs are needed the County give you 120 days to make the necessary repairs.
5. Upon completion of repairs our inspection team will return to your building and verify that all repairs have been completed satisfactorily.
6. A1 Property Service will then issue a letter of "Recommendation for Recertification" to the city or county responsible for this ordinance.
