- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Starting in Construction when I was 16 Started out as a labor and worked up to framing and cornice work ( Ext trim ) Complete out side of new homes in the 80s Suffered recession 3 times . Started a entire home remodeling business with sister called Hayes Construction Corp. Built the business up to winning many best remodeling projects range from 200k- 800k Through NARI , NVBIA organizations. In 2006 decided to move forward on my own started Fairway Construction to for my wife and I ended up having to take care of my mother- in law whom today is 91. So decided to take on smaller projects ranging from cabinet building to all phases of home improvements of entire homes from exterior repairs to kitchens and bathrooms upgrades . After last long recession. Decided to get certified as a home inspector Did a 40hr class through ITA in Manassas then went to Richmond Virginia and to take theNational Exam for which wasn’t required at the time but is now. Decided after a few inspection for some friends and found this did not fit my strong work ethics. So now still working on many projects from custom mill works to opening up spaces to all home remodeling and repairs .
