Services
General Inspection
Our comprehensive general inspection evaluates all major home systems including foundation, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. Inspectors identify potential issues with roofing, insulation, and moisture intrusion while providing detailed repair recommendations. This service helps buyers and sellers understand property condition before transactions.
Radon Testing
Professional radon testing measures radioactive gas levels in residential and commercial properties. Using certified equipment, we conduct long-term assessments to ensure accurate readings. Results help property owners mitigate health risks through recommended remediation solutions for improved indoor air quality.
Crawl Space Inspection
Specialized crawl space evaluations identify structural issues, moisture problems, and insulation deficiencies. Our inspectors check for pest infestations, ventilation concerns, and foundation stability. Detailed reports include actionable steps to maintain structural integrity and prevent costly repairs.
New Construction Inspection
Pre-delivery inspections for newly constructed properties ensure compliance with building codes and quality standards. We examine electrical systems, plumbing installations, and structural components. Our reports help identify punch list items before final walkthroughs with contractors.
Roof Inspection
Thorough roof assessments check for shingle damage, flashing issues, and structural concerns. Inspectors evaluate drainage systems and identify potential leak sources. We provide maintenance recommendations to extend roof lifespan and prevent water damage to properties.

Report
I rarely write reviews, but HHI went above and beyond for my home inspection. I was looking to purchase an older home that had some serious damage to the foundation, so I called Nathan at HHI. He immediately responded to me and with my very tight deadline was able to come out the following day to do an inspection. His partner MJ conducted the visual inspection and talked me through everything he was seeing. After putting together their report, they actually came back to the home to help me further evaluate the structural damage to the homes foundation and Nathan continuously answered all my

Report
Inspector Michael (MJ) was very thorough and professional. He found an issue with the electrical panel of a house I was considering for purchase. If not corrected the problem could have had dangerous consequences. The seller was unaware of the problem and quickly had a licensed electrician rectify the issue. Without the inspection I'd have been clueless. I highly recommend the services of Huntsville Home Inspection.

MJ was the inspector that came out to do our home inspection. We were moving to Huntsville from out of state and HHI made it so easy in our absence. Excellent communication! We loved the detailed report and pictures. Very respectful and professional!
