Since 2004, From The Ground Up has been more than just a home inspection company — we’ve been a trusted partner for families, homebuyers, sellers, and business owners throughout Southeast Texas. Founded and led by TREC Licensed Inspector #7259, InterNACHI Certified, and proud U.S. Navy Veteran [Your Name], we bring integrity, experience, and attention to detail to every inspection we perform.
Built on Service, Experience, and Family Values
My journey into home inspections began after serving six years in the U.S. Navy from 1992 to 1998. The discipline, dedication, and precision I learned during my service became the foundation of how I approach inspections today.
I’ve been married to my incredible wife since 1993, and together we’ve raised three amazing children — now ages 25, 23, and 22. Our youngest, my 22-year-old son, now works alongside me, making From The Ground Up a true family business. Born and raised in Southeast Texas, I know the homes, the climate, and the unique challenges our region presents — from storm resilience to pest control concerns.
