Areas of Expertise

Buyers Inspection-This is a full inspection where the report is given only to the buyer. The buyer must authorize me in writing to provide copies to third parties. Your real estate agent might be one, a family member or your repair contractor. You may elect not to allow anyone but you the client to receive a copy. This is your right under state law should you choose to keep the copy to yourself. Do not buy a home without a full inspection!

Sellers Inspection- Is a full inspection that can be made public. You may also elect to keep it confidential and that is your right as the client. You may pass the download link to anyone you like and your Real Estate professional can to should you give authorization for this. Home sellers want there homes to be shown and to show there are no major defects. Should the initial inspection find defects I will amend the report after I re-inspect and see that it was repaired correctly and no defect is present. It is going to be inspected, know before it gets a buyers inspection what will come up and deal with it on your terms.

Periodic Maintenance Inspections- This type of inspection is performed every two years to assure the health of your family and the safety of your real estate investment. Periodic Maintenance Inspections are necessary to assure the integrity of your structure in-between storms and droughts, to check the building's integrity that may compromised by cracked beams or foundations, to visually inspect for wood-destroying insects, and more. This inspections pays for itself by cost avoidance, finding small problems before they become big problems.

Vacation/Rental Home Inspection- Have a home you leave vacant for any period of time? Want it inspected prior to returning deposits for rentals? I will do a full inspection to baseline the condition of the home. The periodically inspect the home (typically bi-monthly) for any damage, maintenance needs and file a report to you via email. This service requires a full inspection first with appropriate fee and a monthly service charge for each month I am required to inspect. If there is a major storm I will check it at first possible opportunity and get your pictures and a report. Typical monthly service charge is $75-$100 your fee may vary call me to discuss.

11 Month Home Warranty Inspection- You have a home warranty and it's about to run out what do you do? Get a full home inspection and make use of the warranty if defects are found. New Homes usually have a 1 year home warranty as well as existing homes. The potential to loose valid warranty claims far outweighs the cost of an inspection.

Phase Construction Inspection- This inspection is done with 5 Inspection milestones being inspected. Each home is evaluated and a price proposal is sent to the client. Today's builders are not hands on, it's all about using sub-contractors. Many short cuts are taken and workmanship in some cases is not up to standard. This is by far the best money you will spend by having "your" man on the job to look out for you. If you spend more than 200K for new construction you should really consider hiring a professional inspector who works for you. My inspections have the following milestones, additional milestones may be added. Please call me to discuss Curt 843-441-3486.

Testimonials

Curt is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and thorough. He uses the latest technology and techniques, which allows him to check for moisture in the house. His findings were right on. We have been in the house for over 2 months, and have not found anything that he missed during the inspection. We have moved several times over the last 20 years. I wish we had an inspector as thorough as Curt on our previous purchases - it would've saved us a few headaches. There's no doubt that I would use Curt again. I plan to have him come inspect our current home periodically, to ensure we catch any issues before they become too cumbersome to fix.

Curt Goyette of Kingfish Home Inspections is wonderful to have on your side when closing on a home!!! I recently purchased a home and did not have a clue about home inspections, surveying etc. When Curt came to my home he made me feel very comfortable, and he was very knowledgeable on various things that he inspected. Curt answered all my questions that I had concerning certain aspects of my home. I feel that Curt added a personal touch when inspecting by getting me involved as to what he was looking and inspecting for. He offered great service after the sale by ensuring that the things that was noted in his inspection was properly replaced or repaired. I would recommend his service to everyone!!!
