Home Inpection

We at Gaines Engineering are proud to now offer home inspection services licensed by the State of South Carolina. We follow the ASHI standard of practice, pride ourselves on being a true third party representatives, and utilize our structural inspection techiques to bring a higher level inspection than commonly offered.

We find at Gaines Engineering that the majority of Home inspectors do not have the requisite training and skills that are needed to understand the entricacies of home construction. This often results in incongruity between home construction standards and the report delivered. Our inspectors are certified, licensed, and have all the technical knowledge to provide you a detailed and fact based report.

Additional Information

For Home Inspections, we desire for clients to be present whenever possible for communication and description of potential problem areas

Due to liability reasons, we do not operate with a Supra Key. We require that the client's real estate agent or another able party provide our inspectors entry to the building being inspected.

We would like to remind our clients that all inspections are "limited visual inspections" under ASHI standards. Meaning that all problems may not be seen due to blockage by household items, being within wall cavities, etc. For addtional see www.ASHI.org
