Patriot Home Inspections hits 511 five-star reviews and expands into Charlotte County

Patriot Home Inspections says it has reached 511 Google reviews with a 5.0 rating while adding locally based inspectors in Charlotte County, including Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, North Port and Englewood. The Naples company is also leaning on its certified radon lab and multi-license coverage as it pushes deeper into Southwest Florida’s luxury and waterfront market.

Why it matters: - Patriot Home Inspections is using review volume, licensing and in-house testing capacity to compete for buyers in Naples and across Southwest Florida. - The Charlotte County expansion gives the company a local option for homebuyers in Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, North Port and Englewood with no travel fee. - The company's waterfront coverage targets buyers facing seawalls, docks, boat lifts and flood-zone issues that are common in the region.

What happened: - Patriot Home Inspections announced that it has surpassed 500 Google reviews and now has 511 reviews with a perfect 5.0 rating. - The Naples-based company added multiple locally based inspectors to serve Charlotte County. - The company said the new coverage includes Punta Gorda, Punta Gorda Isles, Burnt Store, Babcock Ranch, Port Charlotte, North Port and Englewood. - Patriot Home Inspections said the Charlotte County work carries the same price as inspections in Naples.
