Trusted Home & New Construction Inspector | Fernandina Beach FL

Home Inspector in Fernandina Beach and Yulee

I was born and raised in South Africa, where I bought my first property while studying for my Physics Degree at the University of Cape Town. I lived and worked in England and Europe for a number of years before moving to the USA.

Since I was an IT contractor in the UK, I continued in the USA and worked for the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville for a number of years.

I then took a break from having a real job, got my Tennis Professional teacher certification and taught tennis and mental toughness. I designed websites on the side, as well as helping develop and manage a Sports Psychology training course for professional and amateur athletes.

For the past 8 years I have worked in the construction and insurance property restoration industry. I have done countless mold and water damage inspections and repairs from small houses to multistory buildings. I’ve seen the damage that water can do to a property and have worked on every stage of the mitigation and repair process.

Since I have all these skills and I was really just helping my wife get her water damage company up and running, I moved on to the obvious next step – home inspections.

I love being a home inspector! Every home is different and I love going to a property I’ve never seen before and seeing what I can discover about the home and its history. I love educating buyers on their new home and showing them things they might not have known about the home.

I also love fishing and playing tennis. If I’m not inspecting a home, you’ll probably find me on the tennis court, or on the intracoastal trying to catch redfish and trout!
