What customized pest & inspection does

Customized Pest & Inspection Services, Inc. (DBA: CPIS INCORPORATED) is a privately held, owner-operated residential property inspection firm headquartered in Longwood, Florida. The company is led by Joseph A. Higgins, Owner and Operator, who personally performs all inspections and holds 31 years of WDO inspection experience along with State of Florida certification and NACHI membership. Its core offering is comprehensive visual home inspection covering roofing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, foundation, interior systems, swimming pools and spas, and appliances, supplemented by specialized inspections including Wood Destroying Organism (termite), Wind Mitigation, and 4-Point Insurance reports.

The underlying technology is conventional visual inspection methodology, with no proprietary software, automation, or AI/ML tooling disclosed. The firm delivers its services via a direct-to-consumer model: customers engage by phone, email, or website contact form, and the owner personally conducts each assessment on-site. The firm holds a Florida State WDO Inspector License and NACHI credentials, and maintains verified excellent standing with the Orlando Better Business Bureau. No funding rounds, acquisitions, subsidiaries, or external investors are associated with the company.

The business is structured as a sole proprietorship / closely held corporation with a single full-time operator. Revenue is generated on a quote-based, per-inspection basis with no recurring contracts or subscription pricing, and customer acquisition is driven almost entirely by word-of-mouth referrals, real estate agent relationships, and the website acting as an informational hub. The firm serves home buyers, home sellers, and small real estate investors across Central Florida, with no stated intention to expand beyond that geographic footprint or to add headcount.
