"Larry Brooks is the best home inspector I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I would highly recommend Larry for any of your inspection needs he's very detail-oriented thorough knowledgeable honest. After inspecting the property Larry went over all of my concerns in detail. Because of Larry's knowledge and experience I was able to obtain the home of my dreams without concern because with his inspection report I was able to negotiate all repairs with the seller."

"As part of our process to purchase a house, we asked Advanced Home Inspection Services to inspect the property and structure. We met the inspector, Mr. Regard, at the property and observed that he was very thorough and mindful of every system (e.g., electrical, plumbing, etc.) and the structure, all the way from ground level to the top of the roof. Mr. Regard offered great advice regarding the maintenance and operations of nearly everything in the house. He also patiently and confidently answered every one of our questions. We've purchased several homes over the years, and we've hired inspectors for every purchase, but none have been as kind, thorough, professional, and knowledgeable as Mr. Regard. Bottom line: We would hire Mr. Regard again and we are happy to recommend him to anybody in the area who is looking for a property inspector."

"I arrived at the condominium and found David at the back of the building checking out the basement and the garage area, and the power meter.  This was a  very good sign, as I had been told that only the condo would be inspected, since I am not actually buying the building.  He even checked the roof. <br /> David pointed things out without being probed, By the time it was all said and done, we had remodeled the kitchen.  <br /> Very professional and thorough.  This inspection was a very pleasant experience. <br />"

"They arrived on site ahead of schedule, and kept me up to date on what they found as they looked through the house. They were also happy to entertain any questions that I had throughout the inspection. They found dozens of issues with the home that had escaped my notice, and even volunteered opinions on some things not included in the inspection (e.g. concerns with dying trees and other landscaping issues outside of the house). Overall, I felt that the men from Westbrook Homes, LLC, were genuinely interested in insuring that I knew everything I could about the home. They were thorough and clearly dedicated to a high standard in their work. Additionally, their pricing seemed very fair compared to other inspectors. I couldn't be happier with their work."

"I emailed a request for an inspection early in the week. I received a response within an hour that Edward would be available that Saturday morning and was given an estimate. I confirmed the appointment. I arrived at the house about 15 minutes early, and Edward was already there inspecting the outside of the home. I appreciate not only the fact that he was early but also that he took the initiative to began work instead of sitting in his truck. He also quickly assured me that I could follow him around and ask questions. <br /> He was very through and did not take a and quot;quick lookand quot; at everything like other inspectors I have had in the past. As a matter of fact, we too several trips around the house making sure that nothing was overlooked. Edward was very conscious of explaining what he was looking for and why. When he did find an area of concern, he explained what he found, why it was or could be a problem, and how to fix it. It was clear Edward was very knowledgeable about all aspects of maintaining a house. Overall the inspection took approximately 3 hours from start to finish, though it may have been all the questions I asked. <br /> After the inspection was completed, Edward took the time to go over everything we had discussed, including what he felt was the most immediate problems. He had a very detailed report emailed to me within 24 hours. <br /> Overall, the experience was very positive. I would definitely recommend Griffith to everyone. Hopefully this will be the only time I need their services; however, if not, I will definitely call them again."

"His report was about 40-50 pages long, with detailed pictures and he was very thorough. He had the best price, out of 3 others quotes that we had received. I would like to note, that the house had been vacant for a long time and when Bill did the inspection, the gas was not turned on. We then had to contact the owner, who had to come out at another date to turn it on and then Bill was able to come back to finish the process at no additional cost."

FAQs for complete home inspection projects in Birmingham, AL

An electrical inspection usually takes one to two hours. During the inspection, your electrician will follow the National Electrical Code (NEC) to ensure your home is safe and up to legal safety standards. They'll check your electrical system, including wires, appliances, meter box, panel, circuit breakers, and more.

Afterward, you'll receive a detailed checklist of everything they examined, along with a report highlighting any urgent issues—often with photos. They might also offer tips on how to save energy and improve your system's efficiency.

Regular electrical inspections protect your home and family by ensuring that every part of your electrical system operates safely. Scheduling inspections reduces the risk of electrical fires and cuts high insurance premiums by detecting problems early. Inspections defend against hidden system failures and maintain your property’s overall value, making them an essential part of home maintenance.

Full home electrical inspections are essential when buying a new home because every wiring detail must be evaluated. If you are not purchasing a home and have no significant concerns, a basic safety inspection is sufficient. However, for older properties or homes that have not been inspected for a long time, a comprehensive inspection is required to detect hidden issues and ensure complete safety.
