"Right next door to AccuPro's Evans home base — from the mature, tree-lined neighborhoods off Washington Road to homes along the river, Tom Cely has inspected Martinez homes across the CSRA since 2014."
Martinez sits right alongside Evans in Columbia County — an established, family-friendly community along the Washington Road corridor, just minutes from downtown Augusta and the Savannah River. Home to well-settled neighborhoods, mature tree canopy, and easy access to everything the metro offers, Martinez has long been one of the CSRA's most desirable places to put down roots. AccuPro Inspection Services — owned and operated by Tom Cely, a South Carolina Licensed Residential Home Inspector (RBI 48737) and Certified Residential Mold Inspector — is based next door in Evans and has completed more than 3,000 inspections across the CSRA since 2014.
Because Martinez is a more established community than some of its fast-growing neighbors, much of its housing has a few decades behind it — which is exactly why an experienced inspector matters. Mature homes can carry aging electrical and plumbing systems, older HVAC equipment, roofs nearing the end of their life, and the layered repairs that accumulate over the years. Tom takes the time to walk these homes thoroughly, document every finding with clear photos, and explain what it all means in plain language so buyers know exactly what they're taking on.
Martinez homes also face the CSRA's demanding climate. Long, hot, humid summers drive moisture into crawlspaces and attics, where poor ventilation can fuel mold growth and wood rot, while the region's expansive clay soils shift with wet-and-dry cycles and can stress foundations and drainage against the house. As a Certified Residential Mold Inspector with 15+ years in construction quality control, Tom pays particular attention to the moisture and ventilation concerns this climate produces. Call Tom at 706-840-4907 to schedule your Martinez 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 Martinez 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 — including the aging systems common in established Martinez 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.
