A Bit About Me
I Have Over 20 years of hands-on experience in the Construction Industry.
I know firsthand that buying and selling a property can be overwhelming. I carefully work with buyers in Eugene, Oregon, and surrounding areas, as well as sellers and their agents, to bring you an independent, objective, and comprehensive home inspection report. I understand how important it is to get an accurate and thorough report based on the property's current condition. With many years of hands-on experience in building my own houses, general contracting, project management, structural ironwork, remodeling, and building integrated energy systems, the building industry is what I know and what I do! Put my knowledge and experience to work for you.
In 2020 my passion for fishing and boating led me to get my captain license through the U.S. Coast Guard so that I would be a safer and more knowledgeable mariner.

knowledge
With over 20 years of relative hands-on experience in the building science industry, it is one of the most valuable assets to my business. Still, it's the passion for what I do that makes me successful as a home inspector. Being a home inspector is not just what I do; it's who I am! With a constantly evolving industry, there is always something new to learn; I'm consistently expanding my knowledge and experience of the building sciences. If you choose Oregon Home Inspections, you know you will get one of the best inspections money can buy.
Experience
I have done everything from general contracting and construction, project management, structural iron work, remodeling, and building integrated energy systems. I have worked in many different areas of construction from commercial to residential and I've crawled around in countless attics and crawlspaces. Most recently, since 2006, I've been the owner and operator of a construction business in Eugene, Oregon that designs, installs, and maintains solar energy systems. We employed licensed plumbers and electricians and have first hand knowledge in both of these areas as well as in the house as a whole. Rest assured, when I inspect a home for you I'll be combining all of my experience and knowledge to give you the most thorough inspection available.
Integrity
When I do an inspection I am working for you, which means I am independent of other parties involved in the transaction. I provide you with an independent, objective and comprehensive inspection of the property to help you understand its condition at the time of the inspection. It is my belief that your understanding of the property under inspection is not only in your best interests, but are also in the best interests of Oregon Home Inspections.
