About Mario Tagaras

Mario Tagaras is a state-licensed home inspector based in Clearwater, in Pinellas County. DBPR lists license HI16567 as current and active. Mario Tagaras's Florida home inspector license was first issued in September 2023, about 3 years ago.

Florida home inspectors can sign the state's Uniform Mitigation Verification form (OIR-B1-1802) once they have completed the hurricane mitigation training the law requires, and most also perform the 4-point inspections insurers ask for on older homes. Ask Mario which reports are offered and whether both can be done in one visit.

Clearwater mixes 1960s–80s ranch homes and condos with newer construction, and its beach and bayfront areas see some of the highest wind exposure in the county. 50 other licensed inspectors are also based in Clearwater.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mario Tagaras a licensed home inspector in Florida?

Yes. As of our October 2026 DBPR data, license HI16567 is current and active and expires July 31, 2028; it was originally issued September 1, 2023. Search the number on the DBPR license lookup to confirm before you book.

Can Mario sign a wind mitigation form (OIR-B1-1802) for my Clearwater home?

Florida allows licensed home inspectors to sign the Uniform Mitigation Verification form if they have completed the required hurricane mitigation training. Ask Mario to confirm, and ask for photos of each item (roof deck nails, roof-to-wall connections, opening protection) so your insurer can verify the credits.

How much does a wind mitigation or 4-point inspection cost in Clearwater?

Published Tampa Bay prices we checked in October 2026 were $115–$130 for a wind mitigation report, $120–$140 for a 4-point and $175–$220 for both in one visit. Larger homes, two-story roofs and travel can cost more, so ask Mario for a written price. See our wind mitigation cost guide.

How do I contact Mario Tagaras?

This is a free listing, so we don't show a phone number, email or street address. Use the request form on this page and we'll pass your request along, or compare the 51 licensed inspectors based in Clearwater.

Do I need a 4-point inspection, a wind mitigation inspection, or both?

It depends on your insurer and the age of your home. Insurers typically require a 4-point on older homes and use a wind mitigation report to apply discounts on any home. Booking both in one visit usually costs less than two separate trips. See the 4-point guide.

About these listings. Inspectors are listed from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) home inspector licensee file, downloaded October 2026. We include only licenses shown as current and active. A DBPR license does not by itself confirm that an inspector has completed the hurricane mitigation training required to sign form OIR-B1-1802, so confirm that, and verify the license on myfloridalicense.com, before you book.

Privacy. Many home inspectors use their home address on their license, so free listings show only the city and county: no street address, ZIP code, phone number or email. Inspectors can claim their listingto add business contact details, or ask us to correct or remove it. FL Storm Pros is not affiliated with DBPR or any insurer.
