Our Charleston, SC Home Inspection Services
Buyer’s Home Inspections
This is our typical home inspection that catches common defects so you understand the investment you’re making.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging is a technology that allows the InterNACHI INSPECTOR to show you things about your home that no one can show you using other inspection methods. Thermal imaging produces images of invisible heat energy emitted from objects and systems in the home and allows us to measure it.
Pre-Listing (Seller) Inspections
If you are ready to sell your home, a pre-listing inspection can help speed up the process. This inspection allows the seller time to make improvements on the home before it hits the market. It also allow the potential buyers to understand the condition of the home before making an offer
New Construction Inspections
Phase I (Pre-Drywall Inspections)
This inspection is performed while your home is being built, right before the drywall is installed. It is to ensure that the electrical, plumbing, framing, roof and HVAC systems have been installed correctly.
Phase II (Finished/ New Home Inspection)
After a new home has been built, it should be inspected before closing. We perform a full home inspection reporting on the general condition and mechanical systems of the home.
11 Month Warranty Inspection
We’ll come out during the 11th month and perform a full home inspection before the builder’s warranty expires on your new home. Our non-invasive inspection is based on observations of the visible and apparent condition of the interior and exterior.
We will:
- Evaluate the physical condition of the structure, construction and mechanical systems
- Identify items that should be repaired or replaced
- Recommend qualified professionals to inspect or repair
Pool/Spa Inspection
People’s Choice offers optional pool and spa inspection services to evaluate the current condition of all accessible pool components. Inspection includes the pool and deck surface condition and the coping surrounding the pool area. Drains are also inspected for the presence of anti-vortex covers for safety concerns. We inspect pool/spa lights, the presence of GFCI devices, junction box condition & location, pumps, filters, piping, timers, disconnects, heaters, controls, accessories, skimmers and the examination of electrical bonding.
Annual Home Maintenance Inspection
A home requires care and regular maintenance. As time goes on, parts of your house will wear out, break down, deteriorate, leak, or simply stop working. An Annual Home Maintenance Inspection will help you keep your home in good working condition and prevent it from suffering serious, long-term and expensive damage from minor issues that should be addressed now.
