Our fees are based on a simple premise: provide each client with a reasonably priced service. To do
so, we structured our fee schedule to coincide with the various types of homes that are prevalent in
today's market. A fee, say, for a one or two bedroom condominium, should not be the same as an
individual house. The fees for smaller homes with only a couple of bedrooms should not be the same
as larger homes with many more.
Accordingly, we have based our fee structure to coincide with the specific residence we're going to
inspect. Our inspection rates are as follows:
SERVICES FOR COMMUNITY RESIDENTS
If you recently purchased a new home, especially in one of the numerous "communities" within
Brunswick, New Hanover or Horry Counties - we offer two very helpful services that you should strongly
consider. If you purchased within the last year or two, and your warranty period is expiring soon -
contract with us to do an End-of-Warranty (EOW) inspection. We know what to check, what to look
for, and what to do. We can test with non-invasive water leak equipment to discover minor leaks
behind walls, and laser scan walls and ceilings for insulation deficiencies. We will also check:
Remember, once your warranty expires, replacements and repairs are at your sole expense. Using
CCHIG to perform an EOW inspection will provide you with the best opportunity to uncover potential
issues.
On the other hand, if you have not yet closed on your new home, your builder is going to require that
you participate in a pre-closing walk through. At that time you will be required to "sign-off" and accept
the workmanship on almost every aspect of your new home. Considering the event of buying and
closing on your new home is an emotional event, you should consider having a professional and
experienced home inspector attend the walk through with you.
Carolina Coast Home Inspections Group offers a Pre-Closing Walk Through inspection service that
will greatly assist you in uncovering potential issues that an untrained eye may miss. Considering this
is the one chance you have prior to closing and accepting existing house conditions, it is a service you
should contract for.
Keep in mind though, that our Pre-Closing Walk Through inspection service is NOT as thorough, or
report detailed, as our standard home inspection service. The Walk Through inspection usually
takes up to 1 1/2 hours and requires that the buyer, or the buyer's agent, be present - taking
appropriate notes of findings and recommendations. If you desire a full fledged, standard home
inspection, refer to the fee schedule below

issues related to leaking roofs, leaking windows, or internal plumbing problems.
