Testimonials

“I sat in your seminar on the importance of keeping the inspection contract, the inspection, and the inspection report linked and felt naked.  I’ve been a home inspector for twenty-one years and I realized that I’ve been taking the wrong approach all that time.  I’m just plain lucky that I haven’t wound up in court.  Your seminar completely changed my approach to my work.”

“Your seminar on central, split system, air conditioning systems and heat pump systems made simple and understandable what others had always made complicated. Now I ‘get’ it.” -  ASHI Heartland Chapter Seminar Participant

“Electrical systems have always been my weakest area.  I learned more in your seminar on electrical system grounding and bonding than I’ve learned in all the other seminars and classes on electrical systems I’ve attended.  Thanks for your humor and patience.”
