Why his background matters

He spent 25 years fixing what inspectors look for.

Before he became a home inspector, Jay worked as a Supervisor of Operations and then Vice President in the insurance restoration industry.

He oversaw thousands of restoration and remodeling projects on homes hit by fires, floods, hurricanes, sinkholes and mold. That's the experience he brings to your inspection. He helps you understand the condition of the home, how to get any needed repairs done, and how to take care of what's probably the biggest purchase you'll make.

Jay knows buying a home is stressful, and the inspection shouldn't add to it. His approach is professional but relaxed. You're welcome to walk along, ask anything, and leave knowing what you're buying.

What restoration taught him

He's restored homes after all five.

Restoration work shows you what Florida does to a house. Here's what that experience means Jay pays attention to on your inspection.

Floods & water

Stains, soft spots, grading and drainage, and past repairs that hint at where water has been.

Hurricanes

Roof coverings, roof-to-wall connections and opening protection, the things that hold a house together in a storm.

Fire

Electrical panels, wiring and signs of past repair work that deserve a closer look.

Sinkholes

Cracking patterns in block walls, slabs and driveways that are worth a closer look by a specialist.

Mold

Moisture, ventilation and humidity conditions where mold problems usually start.

A home inspection is a visual, non-invasive inspection of the home's accessible areas. When something needs a specialist, Jay will tell you, and he can refer companies he trusts.

How Jay reports

No checkbox reports. Ever.

Checkbox reports are too vague to act on. Jay writes a complete narrative report that explains each item of concern, with pictures, and goes over it with you in person the same day. Flip the switch to compare.
