The Person Running Your Job

A tradesman first. An inspector second.

Most contractors hope the job goes right. Taylor Weaver inspects for a living — finding what went wrong is literally his trade. He built Inspector Builds so that same eye runs your project from first walkthrough to final sign-off.

The Story

Forced out of the trades. Not out of the work.

Taylor spent years in the trades — hands on the tools, on the crew, finishing jobs. A shoulder and neck injury ended that part of it. But twenty-some years of knowing how buildings are put together, and how they fall apart, don't stop because a body does.

So he got his Washington home inspector license (#26008827) and turned the eye he built on job sites into a profession. Every week he walks properties and writes down exactly what's wrong, what's fine, and what needs doing — the same honest accounting a good homeowner deserves and a bad contractor dreads.

Inspector Builds is the natural next step: if the person who scopes your job, prices your job, and manages your job is the same person whose license depends on telling the truth about condition and quality, the whole job runs differently.

Why this matters on your job

  • ✓The scope comes from an actual inspection — not a phone guess or a satellite photo
  • ✓Hidden problems get surfaced and priced before work starts, in writing
  • ✓Subs are vetted, and their work is re-inspected before you pay a dollar
  • ✓The person signing off on the work is the person whose license is on the line
Credentials

Licensed. Accountable. Insured.

Straight facts, no puffery — you can verify every one of these with the State of Washington.

WA Home Inspector #26008827

Licensed by the Washington State Department of Licensing under WAC 308-408C. Verifiable on the DOL licensing lookup.

Trades Background

Years of hands-on construction work before licensing — the practical half of knowing both how it should be built and how it actually gets built.

Insured

Professional liability coverage on the inspection side. General liability and bonding are part of the contractor registration in process.

Honesty note: the general contractor registration is filed and in process. Until it's issued, Inspector Builds takes smaller projects and project-oversight work — and we'll tell you plainly what we can and can't legally take on your job.

The Standard

What Taylor promises on every job

See it first

No estimate before an inspection. The price is built from what's actually there — condition, access, and hidden risk called out up front.

Write it down

Scope in writing. Change orders in writing. Sign-off in writing. If it isn't written down, it didn't happen — that protects you and the crew.

Pay after it passes

The final payment releases on a passing inspection — not on a promise, not on a calendar date. You hold the leverage the whole way.
