Home Inspections in Amarillo, TX 

Howdy, Amarillo!

 If you’re reading this, chances are you’re about to buy (or sell) a house here in the Yellow City. First off—congratulations! Second—don’t let anyone fool you, because under every roof there could be surprises hiding bigger than the steaks at The Big Texan. That’s where I come in.


My name’s Larry James, and I own Howzitlook Inspections LLC. Before I ever picked up a home inspector’s flashlight, I wore a badge in law enforcement, then served in the U.S. Army working on helicopter weapon systems. Long before all that, I was out there learning trades the hard way—framing, roofing, plumbing, and later electrical from some of the sharpest pros around. I’ve also spent time as an industrial mechanic, which taught me to look at problems from the inside out. Bottom line? I know what defects look like, because I’ve fixed them with my own hands.

Professional Home Inspections in Amarillo, TX You Can Trust

There are plenty of folks who’ll walk through a house, snap a few pictures, and hand you a 40-page report full of confusing jargon. That’s not how I roll. My job is to give you the straight story—no fluff, no cover-ups, no “maybe if you squint this crack looks fine.”


When I inspect a home in Amarillo, I’m looking at it the way a mechanic listens to an engine or a roofer spots a sag from a mile away. Whether it’s a foundation issue near McCormick Road, roof wear that won’t stand up to a Panhandle windstorm, or plumbing that’s been patched together like a Friday Night Lights football play gone wrong—I catch it before you sign on the dotted line.

Trusted Amarillo Home Inspector With Hands-On Experience

Here’s the truth: big-box inspection companies don’t know Amarillo like I do. They don’t drive I-40 every day, swing by Palo Duro Canyon on weekends, or sit in Hodgetown watching the Sod Poodles hit it out of the park.

​

I know this city inside and out—whether it’s the beautiful older homes near Amarillo College, the neighborhoods around Wonderland Amusement Park, or older properties close to Cadillac Ranch where the soil plays tricks on foundations.  Living here, I’ve seen how the wind, sun, and clay soil shape Amarillo homes over time. And when you call me, you’re not dealing with a faceless company—you’re working with a neighbor who treats your house like it’s my own family moving in.
