OUR STORY

My father and I have always had an interest in home remodeling, construction and residential building trades so it just made sense that we venture into the home inspection business. We both bought “fixer- uppers” as our first homes and enjoyed the experience and satisfaction of resurrecting “houses” and making them “homes”.  We’ve had extensive experience in the construction industry and successfully completed all the certification requirements of the West Virginia State Fire Marshall’s Office, including 80 hours of instruction and passing the National Association of Home Inspector’s exam. We take great pride in the work we produce which may be the most important factor of all in determining success.

But that’s just the beginning of our story. As you’ll see from our Bio section, our passion for home remodeling and construction led us to expand our knowledge of all residential housing components.
