About Florida Home Inspections
I started the company in 1998 as a hobby – and over the years, it has grown into a thriving mainstream business. Today, I and my staff service customers all over north Florida with insurance and new-home inspections, wind mitigation and termite inspections, as well as testing for mold and radon.
What sets me apart? Here are three things:
I always put the customer first – period. I treat all my customers with respect, whether they’ve got a $1000 job or a $100 job. I strive to fulfill their needs when they need help and as soon as they need help, with the fastest turnaround time possible. And I always take the time to educate my customers about their homes – not only when I find something wrong, but when there’s ordinary maintenance stuff an average homeowner wouldn’t know about.
I not only educate my clients, I constantly educate myself. For instance, there are not many log cabins in Florida, but I’ve got a certification for working on them! Yes, you can inspect a log cabin with a regular license, but there are special things about them that most inspectors don’t know about. I also have advanced certifications in HVAC, roofing, and termite inspection, among other specialties – all to better serve my customers.
Attention to detail – I inspect every home like I’m buying it myself. I used to be a firefighter, and we had to do meticulous searches of homes to find people who needed help – from this experience, I’ve developed a detailed search pattern, from the outside to the inside, from beginning to the end. This gives me an advantage – I’ve come behind other inspectors and found things they’ve missed.
Yes, all of this training and attention to customer service takes time, and a lot of people say time is money – but to me, time spent with my customers is priceless! See for yourself – I welcome your business.
