Radon Testing

What It Is

Radon is a colorless, odorless radioactive gas that seeps up from the soil and can build to dangerous levels inside homes. The EPA classifies it as the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Carolina Quality performs professional EPA-protocol continuous radon monitor (CRM) testing across Greenville and the Upstate.

Why You Need It

Upstate South Carolina is rated Radon Zone 2 — moderate radon potential by the EPA. Many Upstate homes test well above the 4.0 pCi/L action level, with no warning signs. The only way to know your home's radon level is to test it. Recommended on every home purchase, before listing, and as a regular checkup for current homeowners.

What's Included

  • EPA-protocol continuous radon monitor
  • Standard 48-hour test period
  • Hourly tamper-detection logging
  • Average pCi/L reading vs. EPA action level
  • Plain-English report within 24 hours
  • Mitigation guidance if needed

Air Quality Testing

What It Is

Indoor air quality testing evaluates what you and your family are breathing inside the home — measuring mold spore levels, allergens, and indoor air pollutants. Carolina Quality collects calibrated air samples and surface tape-lift samples, with all analysis performed by an independent accredited laboratory.

Why You Need It

The Upstate's humid subtropical climate, older mill village and historic-district homes, and properties with crawlspaces or retrofitted HVAC systems all create conditions where elevated mold spore counts and air quality issues can develop quietly. Common triggers: visible mold, musty smells, persistent allergy symptoms, or recently flooded basements.

What's Included

  • Indoor air spore samples
  • Outdoor control sample for comparison
  • Surface tape-lift samples (if indicated)
  • Independent accredited lab analysis
  • Plain-English lab summary
  • Visual inspection of concern areas

Specialty Service • Well & Home Water

Water Testing

What It Is

Professional water sample collection and independent laboratory analysis to identify bacteria, nitrates, lead, hardness, pH, iron, manganese, and other contaminants. Critical for any home on a private well, and valuable for any household wanting documented water quality information.

Why You Need It

Many Upstate homes — particularly in northern Greenville County around Travelers Rest, rural Pickens County, Anderson County around Lake Hartwell, and rural Spartanburg County — rely on private wells. SC well owners are responsible for their own testing. Bacteria, nitrates, and lead all have no taste, no color, no smell. Many lenders also require current water tests for FHA, VA, and USDA closings.

What's Included

  • Total Coliform & E. coli bacteria
  • Nitrates & nitrites
  • Lead
  • Hardness, pH & total dissolved solids
  • Iron & manganese
  • Independent accredited lab analysis

Specialty Service • For Buyers

Pre-Purchase Inspections

What It Is

A comprehensive top-to-bottom evaluation of a home's major systems — roof, structure, foundation, exterior, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, attic, crawlspace, and interior — performed before you sign a purchase agreement. The single most important inspection most buyers will ever pay for.

Why You Need It

A home is the largest financial decision most people will ever make. A 30-minute walkthrough with your Realtor cannot reveal what's behind the walls, under the floors, or in the crawlspace. An inspection doesn't change what the home is — only what you know about it. Discover issues before signing (when you have leverage) instead of after closing (when you own them).

What's Included

  • Roof, structure & foundation
  • Exterior & site drainage
  • Electrical, plumbing & HVAC
  • Attic, crawlspace & interior
  • On-site walkthrough with you
  • Detailed report within 24 hours

Specialty Service • For Sellers

Pre-Listing Inspections

What It Is

The same comprehensive inspection we deliver to buyers — but performed for sellers before the home goes on the market. You get the inspection report first, so you can address issues on your timeline, disclose with confidence, and eliminate surprises when the buyer's inspector arrives later in the transaction.

Why You Need It

At some point during your transaction, the buyer is going to bring in an inspector. A lot of deals fall apart, get renegotiated for thousands less, or limp to closing under stress when sellers haven't prepared. A pre-listing inspection flips that dynamic — sellers price more accurately, disclose more confidently, and lose fewer deals to renegotiation.

What's Included

  • Same comprehensive scope as buyer's inspection
  • Photographic documentation
  • Prioritized findings summary
  • Plain-English repair guidance
  • 24-hour report turnaround
  • No pressure on what to fix

Specialty Service • First-Time Buyers

First-Time Buyer Inspections

What It Is

The same comprehensive inspection we perform for any Upstate buyer — but with extra time devoted to walking first-time buyers through every finding patiently, in plain English, with zero jargon and zero pressure. We treat your first inspection the way we'd treat our own kids' first home.

Why You Need It

Most first-time buyers have never owned a roof, a furnace, a water heater, or an electrical panel. You don't yet know HVAC service-life expectations, what Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels are, or why crawlspace moisture is the most underestimated issue in Upstate homes. We make sure you understand all of it — and we don't pressure you toward any conclusion. Your decision is yours.

What's Included

  • Same comprehensive scope as any inspection
  • Extra time on-site
  • Plain-English explanations
  • Priority coaching (deal-breaker vs. budget item)
  • Zero pressure on the decision
  • Free follow-up questions afterward

Maintenance Inspections

What It Is

A comprehensive inspection performed for current homeowners — not transactions. Ideal for annual checkups on aging homes, before-warranty-expires inspections on new construction (the 11-month inspection), and pre-repair planning before hiring contractors. Your home doesn't stop changing the day you close.

Why You Need It

Most homeowners only have one inspection ever — the one before they bought the home. That captures a single moment in time and can't tell you what's happening years later. Builder warranty inspections are particularly high-ROI: schedule at the 10-11 month mark to document defects while the builder is still obligated to address them.

What's Included

  • Same comprehensive scope as any inspection
  • Aging-system assessment
  • Photographic documentation
  • Builder warranty findings (when applicable)
  • Prioritized action roadmap
  • Plain-English report within 24 hours
