My Journey as an inspector and handyman:

While growing up I watched others repair, build, maintain a home. I quickly learned that I had the knack.

In 1995, I was furtunate enough to fullfill the American Dream and purchase a brand new home in central FL. At the time houses were being built everywhere. I decided to keep track of the progress of my home as it was being built. But I have to admit I knew very little about inspecting. When the home was completed and the keys were handed over to me it didn't take long to figure out that the home I bought was poorly constructed.

The AC unit was not working, doors were not hung properly, the house sat in a mote after the first rain, and poor craftsmanship was evident. My biggest mistake was listening to the contractor/builder say "I inspected everything and all is in perfect condition - sign here please".

After much fighting with the builder and replacement of eight dead oak trees and two new lawns later, a french drain was installed and the other items fixed but it took a good fight and the involvement of the town's mayor (it was election time).
