"From mid-century ranches near Historic Bartlett Station to the area's newer subdivisions — Jim Prudhomme and Accu-Check bring more than 16,000 inspections and 35 years of experience to every home."
Bartlett is one of the largest and most established suburbs in the Memphis metro — a family-friendly community northeast of the city that has grown from its roots around Historic Bartlett Station into a thriving mix of neighborhoods, parks, and schools. Its housing runs from mid-century brick ranches and established traditionals to the newer subdivisions that have filled in across the area over recent decades. Accu-Check Home Inspection — owned and operated by Jim Prudhomme, a licensed real estate inspector in both Tennessee (#302) and Mississippi (#1045) with more than 16,000 inspections completed over 35 years — inspects homes throughout Bartlett and every surrounding community.
Jim has inspected Bartlett homes of every kind, from mid-century ranches on established streets to newer builds in the area's growing subdivisions. Every general inspection is a detailed evaluation of more than 400 separate structural and mechanical components, and Jim strongly encourages clients to follow along the entire way — so you leave understanding not just the findings, but how your home works. Because he handles every inspection personally and backs it with specialized mold, radon, and thermal-imaging testing, you get his full experience and a roughly 30-page, photo-rich report delivered within 24 hours.
Bartlett's mix of mid-century and newer homes comes with regional concerns an experienced local inspector knows to watch for. The Mid-South's expansive clay soils swell and shrink with the seasons, stressing foundations and crawlspaces, while hot, humid summers and heavy spring storms test roofs, gutters, grading, and drainage year after year. That heat and humidity also make moisture intrusion and mold a genuine concern — which is exactly why mold inspection is an Accu-Check specialty — while older homes may hide outdated wiring or aging HVAC and newer builds can carry the shortcuts an experienced eye knows to look for. When you're making one of the largest investments of your life, local expertise makes all the difference — call Jim at 901-491-5609 to schedule your Bartlett inspection.

"Being a first-time homebuyer is nerve-wracking, but any quick Google search of the best home inspections in Memphis will feature Jim's name — and there's a reason for that. Jim and his assistant were so personable and thorough. He said he likes to treat every inspection like his own family would move into the house, and I believe him. Supremely reasonable, and he accommodated us very quickly!"

"Mr. Jim was quick to fit us in. He took his time and was very detailed, and he answered every question we had about what he documented in the report. Could not recommend a better person. The extra time he took to make sure we understood everything gave me real peace of mind. He enjoys what he does and you can tell."

Answers to the most common questions Bartlett-area homeowners ask before scheduling a home inspection.
A general home inspection is a detailed evaluation of more than 400 separate structural and mechanical components — the roof, foundation, structure, electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling, attic, crawlspace, and interior and exterior. Every finding is documented with digital photos and explained in plain language, so you understand the true condition of the home.
For an average Bartlett-area home, plan on a few hours on-site. Larger or older homes and multi-family properties take longer. Jim never rushes — clients often note he's far more thorough than inspectors who hurry through in under an hour.
Yes — Jim strongly encourages it. He walks the home with you so you can see findings firsthand, ask questions in real time, and learn the basics of your own home, from finding the main water shut-off to understanding how the systems work.
Typically within 24 hours. You'll receive a roughly 30-page, computer-generated report embedded with digital photos and written in plain language — so you're never left waiting when you have decisions and deadlines.
