Founded with the goal of providing the best quality, the best price and the highest
standard of professionalism in the South Florida real estate inspection industry, HIS Home Inspection
Service, has quickly become a leading Commercial & Residential Inspection Company in
Miami.
Mario D. Tarasiuk has decades of experience in the home building process. During the
late 80's, he managed a company in Silver Springs, Maryland, where he successfully directed the
building of many residential home projects and was directly responsible for managing and assuring
quality performance of all workers and developments. Since then he has managed several construction
projects for various companies and worked in all phases of construction and remodeling in both
residential and commercial properties.
As a Licensed Inspector with many years of
experience in the business, Mario founded HIS Home Inspection Service in 2011 and is proud of having
completed and filed many reports promptly. Mr. Tarasiuk is an instructor, approved in 2012 by DBPR to
teach the 120-hour pre-licensing course for Home Inspection at Florida Training Schools.
Don’t buy a house, building or warehouse without a proper inspection from a
certified Florida property inspector. Save yourself from major headaches by hiring a professional
to make sure that the residential or commercial property you want to buy is in the right condition
for buying. A small investment in a property inspection could lead to thousands of dollars saved in
the long run.
Ask any college graduate or a newlywed couple, what are some of their goals? In
the top five, more often than not, is buying a home! Buying a home is one of the most important purchases of
our lifetime; that’s why home inspectors exist.
Unlike what many would have you believe, home
inspectors are not in place to kill deals but rather to make sure that all parties are aware of the facts.
Our job is to execute a comprehensive examination of the condition of a home. Studies show that a home
inspection is a low-cost way to discover the current condition of a home.
For Home Buyers
HIS Home Inspection
Service can be used as a contingency to your purchase offer. This type of contingency clause
provides a safety net and a way to get out of contractual obligations if defects are revealed. A home
inspection by HIS Home Inspection Service may also discover open permits, code violations and construction
or remodeling job done without a permit. If anyone of these is found, they can not only be expensive to fix
but push the lender into withdrawing their commitment. For more information and to see if we can work for
you give us call today at 786-537-0890.
For a Seller
Inspectors vary in experience,
ability, and thoroughness, and it is not unusual for sellers to get a second opinion to confirm the buyer’s
inspector’s findings. We can provide you with a report that can ease any concerns a buyer may have.
For a Realtor
Realtors and Real Estate
agents are commission based professionals who get paid at closing. If a property does not close, the Realtor
does not get paid. So it is in the best interest of real estate agent to rely on experienced home inspection
companies such as HIS Home Inspection Service. We are capable of detecting open permits and other zoning
oriented flaws which can keep a property from closing. When shopping for an experienced home inspection
company “Don’t shop for price, shop for experience”. If you are a Realtor looking for a qualified licensed
home inspector in Miami, capable of working with you, give us a call for a list of referrals.
Our code of ethics is intended to serve as a guide to the service we provide to
our clients every day in a professional way. We have implemented these ethical codes in order to help our
clients understand the rights and wrong, what’s acceptable and what is not.

Scope of Inspection
The home inspection
is intended to assist you in evaluating the overall quality and general condition of the building and its
components.
Exterior Scope of Inspection
Any area that
is not exposed to view is concealed or is inaccessible because of soil, walls, floors, floor coverings,
ceilings, furniture, equipment or stored items. The inspection does not include any destructive testing or
dismantling. Client agrees to assume all risk for all conditions, which are concealed from view at the time
of inspection. If a defect is hidden under to behind furnishings or inside walls or is buried, it is
impossible for the inspector to locate the defect. This is not a home warranty, guarantee, insurance policy
or substitute for real estate transfer disclosures which may be required.
Codes: The inspector
does not inspect for compliance with building codes for two reasons. First, this is the jurisdiction of the
municipality where the property is located. The municipality is responsible for ensuring that buildings are
constructed according to standards for health and safety. Second, building codes constantly change, and
codes in force when the house was built may not be current. It is impossible for an inspector to know all
codes for all municipalities. The property may not meet the present code but may have been acceptable under
the codes effect when the structure was built. The method allowing the old codes is referred to as
grandfathering.
Limitations of Liability
The inspection
findings will be limited in scope and based upon the visible and apparent condition of the systems and
components of the building at the time of the inspection. Liability for error and omissions to HIS Home
Inspect Services or inspector for this inspection and report is limited to a refund of the fee paid for this
inspection and report. Client assumes all risk of all losses greater than the fee paid for this inspection
and report.
Please Read Carefully
This inspection
report is NOT A GUARANTEE/WARRANTY but a report of the existing conditions found during our visual
inspection of the property. A sincere effort was made to identify as many defects as possible during our
inspection. This report is made on the basis of what was visible and accessible at the time of inspection.
We do not accept liability for any hidden defects that was enclosed, inaccessible or concealed by soil,
walls, ceilings, floor coverings, furniture, equipment, stored articles, or problems that may occur in the
future. Maximum liability to HIS Home Inspect Services is limited to the coast of this
inspection.
Only items covered in this report are applicable. We strongly recommend that a
certified, licensed and insured contractor complete all repairs and/or further evaluations commented in this
report. We do not test and/or take soil, air, and a water sample. Some homes may contain asbestos, lead
paint, mold, Corrosive drywall or other hazardous materials, which we do not perform, so this report will
not comment on these items, other than to point out a visible potential problem and recommend further
investigation. You may wish to contact an expert in these fields if these items concern you.
Definitions
The following definitions of
comment descriptions represent this inspection report. All comments by the inspector should be considered
before purchasing this home. Any recommendations by the inspector to repair or replace suggests a second
opinion or further inspection by a qualified contractor. All costs associated with further inspection fees
and repair or replacement of item, component or unit should be considered before you purchase the
property.
Estimates for Repair
The Florida Home
Inspector Law states that: “A home inspector is not required to provide estimates related to the cost of
repair of an inspected property”. Estimates for repair costs are made on courtesy basis if requested and are
to be used only as a guide and are based on approximate current rates of professional licensed contractors.
The customer should determine the actual cost of repairs before closing. We strongly recommend that you
obtain written estimates from at least 2 to 3 different licensed contractors and do not rely exclusively on
these estimates. One should consider worst case scenarios since many of these estimates are based on fact
finding. This means they can be upgraded upwards in the event other issues are found during the work.
Mechanical Appliances
Mechanical
appliances, water heaters, heating and cooling systems are highly used and highly maintained items with a
life expectancy of 10 to 15 years. These highly used items can be working in good, satisfactory condition
and may break down without warning. Comments of Satisfactory, Marginal or Poor in this report on these items
are made at the time of inspection and are NOT A GUARANTEE/WARRANTY. We are not responsible for changes in
the condition and performance of these items after the inspection date.
Pictures

problems found during the home inspection. They are intended for the client to get a visual and
understanding on certain items or items that are usually not visible like rooftop, attic, and crawl space.
