Home Inspection Services
Buyer’s Inspection
A buyer’s home inspection is a thorough examination of a property’s condition, conducted to identify any potential issues before purchase. We provide prospective buyers with a detailed report on the home’s condition, helping them make informed decisions and negotiate repairs or adjustments with the seller if necessary. We follow the South Carolina state standards of practice.
We inspect these areas of the home:
- Foundation: Check for cracks, settling, and overall stability.
- Roof: Inspect shingles, flashing, gutters, and downspouts.
- Exterior: Examine siding, windows, doors, and trim for damage or wear.
- Plumbing: Assess pipes, fixtures, water pressure, and drainage systems.
- Electrical Systems: Evaluate wiring, outlets, panels, and circuit breakers.
- HVAC: Inspect heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.
- Attic and Insulation: Check for proper insulation, ventilation, and signs of moisture or pests.
- Interior: Review walls, ceilings, floors, and doors for structural issues or defects.
- Basement and Crawl Spaces: Examine for signs of moisture, mold, and structural integrity.
- Appliances: Test major appliances like ovens, dishwashers, and dryers for proper operation.
If needed, we will use thermal imaging, a moisture meter, and an aerial drone during the inspection at no extra charge.

Beyond Home Inspections: Comprehensive Drone Services
Carl Brygger, an FAA-certified drone pilot, enhances his home inspection services with advanced drone technology, offering both aerial inspections and captivating drone photography and videography.
Utilizing drones for real estate marketing provides stunning, high-resolution images and videos that showcase properties from unique perspectives, attracting more potential buyers.
In home inspections, drone footage allows for a comprehensive view of hard-to-reach areas, such as roofs and chimneys, uncovering issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. They also provide a birds-eye view of the entire property so the buyer is aware of all landscape features within the boundaries.
