Welcome to Pillar To Post. As part of your community, we are pleased to provide our local customers, real estate professionals, home buyers, and home sellers a home inspection service that offers quality, precision, integrity, and professionalism.
We call what we do The Moment of Truth. It is the moment when the emotion of buying and selling a home meets the reality of the issues of that home. Our work is to communicate effectively, knowledgeably, efficiently, and openly about the condition of a home. We understand that our customers trust us to inform and educate them about what we see and what we find, and this is a trust we hold in the highest regard.
We’re number one for a reason. For six years, Pillar To Post has been named #1 in the Home Inspection category by Entrepreneur Magazine in its Annual Franchise 500 issue. We hold this position because we work to earn your trust and confidence with every home inspection we perform every day!
As a certified and licensed home inspector, Tommy Amonette brings experience, professionalism, integrity, and commitment to professional home inspections.

He and his team understand that buying or selling a home is critical and can easily become stressful. They enjoy being the go-to team for clients who need accurate information when it comes to buying a home. With the Amonette team, potential home buyers can be confident about their decision.
Real Estate Agents
For real estate professionals, we understand that your reputation is part of our responsibility. A relationship with us reinforces your clients' confidence in you. The Amonette team works closely with local real estate professionals in the community and is always available to answer questions and provide information to realtors and clients. They strive to further educate and provide information and answers to build trust with local realtors.
Home Buyer
Our work is an objective explanation of the property’s condition to the potential buyer. Often an emotional tie is already being formed to the property, so they must operate with sensitivity. The Amonette team is often called one of the best home inspection agencies in the industry for the Houston area. They are qualified to inspect homes of all types, sizes, and ages. From new construction to older homes with historical value, they have the experience and knowledge to assess the home's condition accurately. They can inspect small single-family homes, condominiums, townhomes, mobile homes, multi-unit dwellings, such as apartments, duplexes, triplexes, and other residential properties.
Home Sellers
For the home seller, our work is to honor the home they lived in and report on its condition observed at the time of the inspection. Tommy and his team take the utmost care in your home and execute the inspection as though they were never there. Pillar To Post considers the home a place of the heart for our customers, and we say this because it houses loved ones and the memories of their lifetimes. This is why we call Pillar To Post The Home of Home Inspection.

The Home Inspection Process
A home inspection takes approximately 2-3 hours but it will depend on the size of the house. It is a 1,600 point comprehensive inspection, focusing on the major components and systems of the house. These components include roofs, attic spaces, foundation structures, crawlspaces, electrical, plumbing, and heating and cooling systems. We inspect kitchens, bathrooms, and all living spaces: we will operate all fixtures in the bathroom and kitchen and operate all kitchen appliances. We also check and use outlets, plugs, lights, windows, and doors throughout the house.
In addition to a full home inspection, we offer these added services. These can be scheduled separately, or they can be arranged at the same time as the home inspection.
