The Difference 30 Years Makes
Most home inspectors learn to inspect homes. David Thacker spent over three decades building them — as a production worker, framer, quality assurance manager, and field operations director. He has personally set hundreds of homes, communicated with code enforcement officials at the state and local level, and managed final punch-list walk-throughs for homeowners across the Midwest.
That depth of construction knowledge doesn't just make David a thorough inspector — it makes him an inspector who can tell you what a finding actually means for the home, the repair, and your decision.
