Why Choose Allied — Florida’s Milestone Inspection Leaders
For more than three decades, Allied Building Inspection Services has been one of Florida’s most trusted inspection and engineering firms. Since 1993, our team has completed over 350,000 inspections, giving us unmatched real-world experience across high-rise condominiums, coastal buildings, mid-rise communities, and aging structures throughout the state.
We have performed thousands of safety inspections for condominiums and cooperatives across Florida — including structural evaluations, building recertifications, Milestone Inspections, and reserve-study-related assessments — making Allied one of the most experienced and reliable inspection providers in the state.
When you choose Allied, you benefit from:
-
Engineer-led evaluations built on decades of field experience
-
Clear, comprehensive reports your board can understand and rely on
-
A dedicated Client Experience Team guiding your association from inspection through approval
-
Integrated support when pairing MSI with SIRS or SIRS+Plus for complete compliance
Our experience is your advantage — and your association benefits from a team that understands Florida buildings, compliance requirements, and the structural conditions that keep communities safe.
The Milestone Inspection focuses exclusively on the structural systems of your building. It is essentially the structural equivalent of the Building Safety Recertification (BSRI) required in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties but applies statewide under Florida Statute §553.899.
What We Deliver
Comprehensive Phase 1 structural report with photos and detailed notes
Deficiency log with prioritized repair recommendations
Signed and sealed report ready for submittal to the local building department
Phase 2 inspection (if needed) and finalized follow-up report verifying repairs
Allied Concierge Service
Allied goes beyond inspections — our Concierge Service ensures you’re never alone in the recertification process.
Our Client Experience Team assists with every step, from inspection through municipal closeout:
-
City Submittals: We prepare and submit your final MSI report to the appropriate municipality, ensuring all forms and documents meet jurisdictional requirements.
-
Safe-to-Occupy Letters: If your property needs a temporary occupancy letter while completing repairs, Allied drafts and coordinates submission with the city for approval.
-
Ongoing Guidance: We monitor your report’s review status and keep you informed of any city responses or additional documentation requests.
-
Personalized Support: A dedicated Client Experience Team member will communicate directly with your property manager, keeping your project on track from start to finish.
Regulatory Update: HB 913 (Effective July 1, 2025)
Florida’s House Bill 913 reinforces Milestone Structural Inspection requirements statewide. Associations must incorporate MSI findings into their Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS) and long-term maintenance plans.
HB 913 also:
-
Extends the initial SIRS deadline to December 31, 2025
-
Introduces new board transparency & financial reporting rules
-
Authorizes local jurisdictions to enforce earlier deadlines in coastal zones
Allied ensures every report aligns with HB 913 and Florida Building Code standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Milestone Inspection include electrical testing?
No. MSI covers only structural systems. Electrical inspections apply only to the BSRI program in Miami-Dade & Broward.
Who performs the MSI?
How do MSI and SIRS work together?
MSI identifies current physical conditions; SIRS evaluates reserve funding to maintain those systems. Performing both ensures sound safety and financial planning.
