Starting as a young man, he obtained his Journeyman's Licensed in Carpentry the hard way - through a four year apprenticeship to an older more experienced carpenter.  That experience is the basis of his knowledge and that knowledge intensified through the years of commercial construction, owning and operating a home remodeling business in The Woodlands for 20 years, then achieving licensure and other certifications in specific areas of building as those listed below:

Wendy Mat son Martinez, Co-owner of Preferred Home Inspections, Inc., has 20 years of home inspections.  The basis for her knowledge is the years she spent working side-by-side with her husband, Fernando, operating their remodeling business.  Also:

  • Wendy is a TREC licensed home inspector

We don't have to advertise much - that's because our customers do it for us, by referring us to their friends and family. Why? Because they think they have found a good thing and they want to share us. They like how DETAIL ORIENTED we are. If there is a problem to be found, we will find it, discuss the implications of the problem with our client, and  then list it on our report in an easy to understand non-technical manner.

We love our clients to PARTICIPATE and be present  so that they can learn about their house. We take special care with first time home buyers.
