Fire Department Experience. Florida-Focused Inspections. Trusted Protection.
Meet Your Inspector
Diosbani "Dio" Rodriguez
Working in South Florida, I understand the unique challenges homes face, including hurricane exposure, high humidity, moisture intrusion, aging electrical systems, and increased fire risk from improper wiring, overloaded panels, and outdated safety components. My background in emergency response and fire prevention allows me to identify hazards and deficiencies that can affect both occupant safety and long-term property value.
I apply the same discipline, attention to detail, and accountability from the fire service to every home inspection. Whether I’m evaluating roofing systems, electrical panels, HVAC components, or fire-related safety concerns, my goal is to provide clear, honest, and thorough information so my clients can make confident decisions.
At Guardian Inspection SFL, I don’t just inspect homes—I help protect your investment and your peace of mind.

The Best Modern Report in the Industry
The Best Modern Report in the Industry
While Guardian Inspection SFL LLC encourages my clients to walk through the home with me, I understand that you may be too busy and may not have time to do so.
Regardless of whether or not you attend the inspection, I will compile a comprehensive Spectora report, which includes all of the information you need to determine the condition of the home.
I will deliver my report within 24 hours of the conclusion of your home inspection, so that you can quickly access a full overview of my findings – and discuss them with me and your agent.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a home inspection?
A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation. A home inspection is designed to protect the buyer by revealing problems they might not have noticed otherwise.
How much does a home inspection cost?
My home inspection starts at $375. The cost will vary based on the square footage of the home, the age of the home, and location of the home. Call, text, or email me for a quote today!
How long does a home inspection take?
A home inspection generally takes 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration of a home inspection depends on many factors such as the size of the home, the condition of the home, and the ability to access certain areas of the home (roof, crawl space, attic, etc.).
Should I attend the inspection?
Although it is not necessary, I do recommend that you attend the inspection so you can ask questions and learn more about the home. You will learn a lot from the inspection report, but I always encourage you to attend!
What if the inspection report reveals problems?
It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, I will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement. The information provided is to allow a potential buyer to make an informed decision about moving forward with the transaction. It is not pass or fail.
