"From the charm of historic downtown Madison to the wave of new construction near Town Madison and Research Park — Bobby McCurry has been inspecting Madison-area homes since 2003, with the radon expertise even brand-new homes here genuinely need."
Madison is one of the most sought-after places to live in all of North Alabama — consistently ranked among the best small cities in the country for its schools, safety, and quality of life. Straddling the Madison and Limestone county line and sitting right at the doorstep of Cummings Research Park and the new Town Madison development, the city has exploded with growth as families relocate to the region for aerospace, defense, and tech careers. The result is one of the most new-construction-heavy markets in the state, alongside established neighborhoods and the charm of historic downtown Madison. Nspection360 LLC — owned and operated by Bobby McCurry, an Alabama licensed and certified home inspector (License #0827) since 2003 — has completed more than 5,000 inspections across Madison and the surrounding Tennessee Valley.
Madison's new-construction boom makes one issue especially important here: radon. Many buyers assume a brand-new home is automatically safe, but radon depends on the ground beneath the home, not its age — and Madison sits in the EPA's highest-risk radon zone thanks to North Alabama's limestone and karst geology. In fact, tighter, well-sealed new construction can trap radon more effectively than older homes. Radon is colorless, odorless, and the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S., and testing is the only way to know your level. It's Bobby's specialty — and in a market with this much new building, it's essential.
Whether you're buying new construction near Town Madison, an established home in a mature neighborhood, or a piece of Madison's historic downtown, every property deserves an experienced, independent eye. Fast-paced new builds frequently carry builder shortcuts, flashing and drainage problems, and HVAC imbalances a builder walk-through misses, while older homes bring their own age-related concerns. When you hire Nspection360, you get Bobby McCurry personally — over two decades of North Alabama experience, walking your home with you, explaining every finding in plain language, and pairing it with the radon testing Madison calls for. Call Bobby at 256-206-6430 to schedule your Madison inspection and radon test.
Every inspection is a complete top-to-bottom evaluation performed personally by Bobby McCurry — paired with the radon testing North Alabama calls for. Here's what's covered on every Madison home inspection:
Bobby's specialty — critical in Madison, where karst geology places the city in the EPA's highest-risk radon zone — even for new homes.
Roof, flashing, foundation, and structural evaluation — accounting for North Alabama's storms, humidity, and clay soils.
Panel, wiring, outlets, and grounding evaluated throughout — including the aging systems common in older Athens homes.
Supply lines, drains, fixtures, water heaters, and visible piping — checked for leaks, age, and intrusion concerns.
Heating and cooling systems evaluated for North Alabama's hot, humid summers and cool winters.
The spaces where North Alabama homes hide their biggest issues — moisture, ventilation, insulation, and pests.
Reviews from Madison homebuyers, sellers, and real estate professionals who have trusted Nspection360 LLC.
"We bought a brand-new home in Madison and almost skipped a radon test because it was new construction. Bobby explained why that doesn't matter — and sure enough, the level was elevated. So thankful he caught it."

Answers to the most common questions Madison homebuyers ask before scheduling their inspection.
North Alabama's limestone and karst geology is a classic source of radon gas, and the EPA places Madison in its highest-risk radon zone. Radon depends on the ground beneath the home, not its age — so the new construction Madison is famous for is just as much at risk, and tighter new homes can actually trap radon more effectively. Radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S., and testing is the only way to know your level.
Yes. Absolutely. With so much new construction in Madison, this is one of the most valuable inspections you can get. Fast-paced builds frequently have improperly installed flashing, drainage and grading issues, HVAC imbalances, and finish problems that a builder walk-through misses entirely. Bobby regularly catches these before closing — and also offers builder's warranty inspections in your 10th month, before your one-year warranty expires.
Established and historic-downtown Madison homes can hide aging electrical wiring, original or galvanized plumbing, dated HVAC systems, and decades of layered repairs of varying quality. These homes are worth the investment for the right buyer — but they deserve an experienced inspector who knows what to look for. Bobby's 20+ years in North Alabama means he's seen it all.
Both. Radon testing is Bobby's specialty, and you can add it to your home inspection or schedule it on its own. In a high-risk zone like Madison, pairing a radon test with your inspection gives you the complete picture of the home before you close — air quality included.
