"From the established homes and acreage of south Richmond County to the new subdivisions near Fort Eisenhower's south gate — Tom Cely brings local, experienced home inspections to Hephzibah and the CSRA."
Hephzibah sits in south Richmond County, just beyond Augusta and within easy reach of Fort Eisenhower's south side — a community that blends small-town character with larger lots, established homes, and a growing number of newer subdivisions. For buyers looking for more space and value than the busier parts of the metro, Hephzibah has long been an appealing choice, drawing in military families, first-time buyers, and those who want a bit of room to breathe. AccuPro Inspection Services — owned and operated by Tom Cely, a South Carolina Licensed Residential Home Inspector (RBI 48737) and Certified Residential Mold Inspector — serves Hephzibah and Richmond County, with more than 3,000 inspections completed across the CSRA since 2014.
Hephzibah's housing mix means buyers see a real range — from homes that have stood for decades on generous lots to brand-new construction in its expanding subdivisions. Older homes can carry aging electrical and plumbing, dated HVAC, roofs nearing the end of their life, and layered repairs, while new builds move fast and a builder's walk-through often misses the details. Either way, an experienced, independent inspector who knows the area is the best way to understand exactly what you're buying before you commit.
Hephzibah homes also face the CSRA's demanding climate, and larger rural lots can add their own wrinkles. Long, hot, humid summers drive moisture into crawlspaces and attics, where poor ventilation can fuel mold growth and wood rot, while expansive clay soils and wet-and-dry cycles can stress foundations and create drainage problems. Properties on acreage 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 Hephzibah home thoroughly and explains every finding in plain language. Call Tom at 706-840-4907 to schedule your Hephzibah 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 Hephzibah home inspection:
AccuPro's most-requested service — a complete, impartial evaluation so you know a home's true condition before you buy.
Roof, flashing, foundation, and structural evaluation — accounting for the CSRA's storms, humidity, and shifting clay soils.
Panel, wiring, outlets, and grounding evaluated throughout — from new subdivisions to established south Richmond County homes.
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.

Answers to the most common questions Hephzibah and Richmond County homebuyers ask before scheduling their inspection.
Many Hephzibah properties sit on larger lots with septic systems and well water. Tom's inspection covers the home's visible and accessible systems and components; specialized septic and well evaluations are typically handled by dedicated specialists, and Tom will tell you plainly what's worth arranging as part of your due diligence so nothing falls through the cracks.
Older homes in south Richmond County can hide aging electrical wiring, original plumbing, dated HVAC systems, roofs nearing the end of their life, and layered repairs of varying quality. They're often a great value for the space — but they deserve an experienced inspector. Tom's 15+ years in construction and decade-plus inspecting CSRA homes means he knows where the issues hide.
Absolutely — with Hephzibah's subdivisions expanding, it's one of the most valuable inspections you can get. Tom regularly walks new-construction homes before closing and finds items the builder missed: flashing, drainage and grading, HVAC issues, and finish work. He also offers an 11-month builder's warranty inspection before your one-year warranty expires.
