My Story
I remember constructing and inspecting things since my childhood. You know the type, one of those boys who took things apart and then tried to put them back together. It didn’t always work! After graduating from the University of Arkansas, I taught highschool science for ten years and taught disabled adults for eight years.
But teaching was too much talk and not enough action for me. So I took my love of carpentry full-time. I remodeled many residential and commercial properties, and then started inspecting homes in 2002. The path to becoming a Certified Inspector hasn’t always been easy, but the challenge of providing inspection solutions makes it worthwhile.
When people ask me what I do for a living, I tell them, “I help residential and commercial property owners prioritize repairs and upgrades, including moisture intrusion and deferred maintenance issues.” That’s more fun that just saying I’m a property inspector! I love to help families learn the condition of their home. I love to teach investors how to maintain and upgrade their properties. I love to show sellers how to make their house more presentable. I love to help commercial owners discover the potential of their buildings. Call me, and we’ll do some property detective work!

I provide health and safety inspections for NeighborWorks® clients who are buying a home. NeighborWorks® is a non-profit organization whose mission is to revitalize neighborhoods and promote affordable housing.
Marketing materials from Westinspect are directed toward three segments of the real estate community: buyers, agents, and lenders. These marketing items are distributed to make people aware of the various services offered by Westinspect.
