Meet Your inspectors
“Our “real world” experience is what sets us apart from other home inspectors. This experience cannot be taught in a classroom or in any course – it has to be lived. I know what I am looking at and what the issues are because I have seen them over many years of experience.”

All of your inspectors are internachi certified with required continuous education annually.
At CR Inspection Services, our inspectors are dedicated professionals committed to protecting homebuyers, sellers, and homeowners throughout Southeastern Virginia. Every home inspector on our team is fully licensed in the state of Virginia and proudly certified through InterNACHI®, the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors. This means we follow strict Standards of Practice, complete ongoing continuing education, and stay up to date with the latest building practices, safety standards, and inspection technology.
Our inspectors bring more than just certifications — they bring integrity, attention to detail, and a genuine commitment to our clients. Buying or selling a home is one of the largest financial decisions most people will ever make. We understand that, and we approach every inspection with the seriousness and care it deserves. We don’t rush through appointments, and we don’t overlook small details that could turn into expensive problems later. From roof to foundation, crawl space to attic, we carefully evaluate each accessible component of the property.
As local inspectors serving Hampton Roads and Chesapeake, we understand the unique challenges homes in this region face — including high humidity, moisture intrusion, crawl space concerns, termite activity, and coastal weather impacts. Our regional knowledge allows us to spot issues that others might miss.
Transparency is one of our core values. After each inspection, clients receive a clear, detailed digital report outlining our findings, complete with photos and explanations. We take the time to answer questions and ensure our clients fully understand the condition of the home. Our job is not just to inspect — it is to educate and empower you to make confident decisions.
When you choose CR Inspection Services, you’re choosing licensed professionals, advanced training, local expertise, and inspectors who genuinely care about protecting your investment. You can move forward with confidence knowing your home inspection was performed with thoroughness, honesty, and professionalism.
