15 Years of Home Repair and Remodeling Experience
Before becoming a licensed home inspector, Jeff worked for 15 years in the home repair, remodeling, and building industry. Specifically, he worked for most of his career estimating repairs on fire, water, and storm-damaged homes. Inspections became a regular part of his job as he helped clients assess damages and estimate the cost of repairs. Jeff previously owned a home repair business that did roof repairs, home additions, flooring, electrical work, and more. Additionally, he has been a home builder in South Carolina since 2001. He understands homes from the inside out and is eager to share his knowledge with home buyers as they learn how to operate and maintain homes of their own.

In His Free Time
