Alabama Home Inspections

Bobby did an amazing job for my home inspection. I called him, and he was able to accommodate within two days of contacting him. He didn't mind us tagging along and asking him questions. Every time he documented something, he explained what it was and how we would be able to go about fixing it, even the minor issues. Definitely worth the price. I would recommend him for sure!

Prompt to respond, competent, arrived on time, and did a thorough job (at least from what I can tell!). Found issues I would have never noticed. Processed everything quickly and had the report within a matter of hours.

I hired Bobby Michael because he was on a long list of inspectors my realtor suggested. When cross referencing that list to the Google reviews Bobby was the top guy with all 5 star reviews. I am writing this review today to deter others from making the same mistake. Bobby is a very pleasant person and answered all of the questions I had. He was easy to schedule and on time to our appointment. That being said I do not think he did a very thorough inspection which is why I am giving him a poor review. Unlike some of the other reviewers, I am not happy with the job Bobby did. I specifically asked him about a few systems in the house (jetted tub in the master, gas fireplaces, etc) and he mentioned he doesn't even try those systems due to liability reasons. The explanation didn't make much sense to me on the surface, but I went with it since he was the expert and I am not. Bobby suggested hiring other experts to check out the systems in question to get them inspected. After talking to my realtor, and seeing the report of the inspector the buyers of my house used, it is clear that other home inspectors in fact do check these systems. This also aligned with my previous experience with an inspector (albeit 14 years ago). It is my opinion that an inspector should be able to inspect all of the vital systems in a home, and they should be an expert on finding and reporting the issues that are associated with these systems. At this point I feel like the money I spent on Bobby Michael was wasted, and hope this review warns others of making the same mistake I did based on all the 5 star reviews.

Bobby is a great guy that knows what he is doing and does his job professionally without making you feel bad about tagging along with him and asking a ton of questions. His report was ready the same day, which saved us precious time in our house buying process! We will certainly call him again if we ever need an inspection and will recommend him to all our friends.

Bobby had done an inspection for my son. Bobby was able to do an inspection for me within 2 days of my contacting him. Called him in the evening and he answered my call. He did the inspection and went over all the items with me and answered all my questions. He was cordially and very knowledgeable.
