Testimonials

Best Money Ever Spent!!

Tom Sinclair is very thorough and professional. My buyers get a realistic look at the house they are buying and are well aware of any hidden or upcoming issues they may need to budget for. He is not an alarmist but simply explains the problems and the possible corrections. I recommend him to ANYONE needing an inspection - not just new purchases but also for mold or stucco issues that may be of concern to an existing homeowner.

How Greatful I Am!

"Mr. Sinclair recently performed a pre-purchase home inspection for me in Fairhope and I wanted to tell you how grateful I am that I did this prior to closing. The number of things that he pointed out more than covered his reasonable fee. The homeowner corrected all these items prior to our occupying the home which made the move much easier. I can only image discovering a leaking faucet, broken window seal, or malfunctioning sprinkler, etc. to add to the stress of all that moving entails. Additionally, he has been wonderful to return calls immediately when I have inquired about follow-up details."

Always get a home inspection

"Unless you are a building professional yourself, it really pays to hire a home inspector. Tom Sinclair of About the House Home Inspectors did a great job for us. He found defects that I may have overlooked. I'm really glad our realtor recommended Tom for the job."

Home Inspection

"Mr. Sinclair was prompt with the home inspection for the property I was purchasing. His inspection was very in-depth, and explained findings in detail. I liked how the inspection was divided into areas of inspection, such as electrical, plumbing, etc.. and each addressed individually. This made it very easy to study, and discuss with my realtor. I would recommend Mr. Sinclair to any one purchasing a home, and in fact have already done so."

Staying Balanced

All work and no fun... well, you know that saying.

I enjoy fishing with my sons (or working on the boats, whichever comes first).
