Bio
I started my business, New Direction Home Inspections LLC, in 2017 after a 35 year career in manufacturing where I work as a Journeyman Tool & Die maker, Supervisor, and Process Enginner. This business has allowed me to meet so many great people and enjoy the outdoors again. The business has grown much faster than I could have imagined and is completely by referrals. My inspections are produced using a tablet with many pictures imbedded within the report in the proper categories for easy viewing. All reports are completed and sent to my clients the same day as the inspection. My clients are encouraged to follow me through the home and ask questions, very interactive inspections. Give me a call and lets discuss your inspection needs. 440-320-7174
