- Well Water Quality — A significant portion of Lexington County properties rely on private wells. Water quality testing is essential to identify contaminants before closing.
- Crawl Space Moisture & Mold — Lexington's humidity and clay soils make crawl space moisture a frequent finding — especially in older established neighborhoods.
