"Steeped in South Carolina history and famous as the home of the wild turkey — from the antebellum homes around the town square to country properties on acreage, Tom Cely brings SC-licensed expertise to Edgefield."
Edgefield is one of South Carolina's most history-rich small towns — known for its storied antebellum past, its famous town square, and its title as the "Wild Turkey Capital" as home of the National Wild Turkey Federation. With its beautifully preserved historic district, pottery heritage, and country surroundings just north of North Augusta and Aiken, Edgefield draws history lovers, retirees, and buyers seeking small-town character within reach of the Augusta metro. AccuPro Inspection Services — owned and operated by Tom Cely, a South Carolina Licensed Residential Home Inspector (RBI 48737) and Certified Residential Mold Inspector — serves Edgefield and Edgefield County, with more than 3,000 inspections completed across the CSRA since 2014.
Because Tom holds a South Carolina residential inspector license, Edgefield buyers get an inspector properly licensed right where they're buying. Edgefield's housing leans heavily toward older and historic homes, often near the square, alongside country properties on acreage — and these homes deserve special attention. Decades or even a century of age can bring aging electrical and plumbing, dated HVAC, older roofing, foundation movement, and layered repairs of varying quality. An experienced inspector who understands historic homes is essential before you commit.
Edgefield homes also face the CSRA's demanding climate, and rural properties add their own considerations. Long, hot, humid summers drive moisture into crawlspaces and attics, where poor ventilation can fuel mold growth and wood rot — a particular concern in older homes — while expansive clay soils and wet-and-dry cycles can stress foundations and drainage. Country properties may also rely on septic systems and well water worth understanding as part of your due diligence. As a Certified Residential Mold Inspector with 15+ years in construction, Tom walks every Edgefield home thoroughly and explains every finding in plain language. Call Tom at 706-840-4907 to schedule your Edgefield home inspection.
Every inspection is a complete top-to-bottom evaluation performed personally by Tom Cely, following the ASHI Standards of Practice. Here's what's covered on every Edgefield home inspection:

Supply lines, drains, fixtures, water heaters, and visible piping — checked for leaks, age, and moisture concerns.
Heating and cooling systems evaluated for the CSRA's long, hot, humid summers and milder winters.
The spaces where CSRA homes hide their biggest issues — moisture, mold, ventilation, insulation, and pests.
