Beachfront condos, island homes, and lodging properties on the Gulf. Clay and his team inspect St. Pete Beach properties with care.
St. Pete Beach is a barrier island city on the Gulf of Mexico, home to wide white-sand beaches, the iconic Don CeSar hotel, and a mix of beachfront condos, island homes, waterfront properties on the bay side, and hotels and vacation rentals. Tampa Bay Inspections, led by Clay Schleitwiler, CMI®, a Florida Licensed Home Inspector (#HI4562), serves home buyers, sellers, and homeowners throughout St. Pete Beach.
St. Pete Beach was severely affected by storm surge during Hurricane Helene in 2024, and many properties have since been repaired, rebuilt, or remain in recovery. Buyers should look closely at signs of past water intrusion, moisture, and the quality of repairs. Condo buyers benefit from a unit-focused inspection, waterfront homes may have seawalls and docks worth evaluating, and lodging properties can schedule balcony inspections and the DBPR Form HR-7020 certificate.
Every island property faces hurricane winds, which makes a wind mitigation inspection one of the smartest ways to manage insurance costs. Thermal imaging can help find hidden moisture behind walls and floors. Clay and his team walk clients through their findings, explain everything in plain English, and deliver a detailed report with photos, typically the same day. Call 813-476-1561 to schedule your St. Pete Beach inspection.
