Mr. Lambert brings fifteen plus years of prior construction experience to the property inspection profession. This experience includes complete window and door/jamb installation, roofing applications and renovations, hanging of drywall, plumbing installation/repair, tile setting, and cabinetry.

In an effort to provide clients all that is necessary in the property inspection industry, Mr. Lambert obtained training through the TWI Systems network of home inspectors and on-site experiences with many of his fellow inspectors including Peter Walker, Richard Morrissey, Sam Kline and others. Mr. Lambert adheres to strict inspection and reporting standards. The reporting system Mr. Lambert provides was designed by Peter Walker and is continually updated and refreshed by Mr. Lambert for Peter Walker, himself and their fellow inspector clients who have purchased their system.  The reporting system provides a state-of-the-art electronically produced inspection report that assures all inspections are complete, understandable, and includes digital photos. This system allows inspectors to provide computer generated, narrative style inspection reports on site. He meets the financial responsibility expected in the property inspection profession by being covered by Errors & Omissions insurance, General Liability insurance and Fidelity Bonded.

He is a past, certified inspector member of the California Real Estate Inspection Association (CREIA) and a current member of the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI).  He strictly adheres to their strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice.

Mr. Lambert also performs sewer camera inspections with state of the art sewer camera able to provide both digital video and digital photos of the building’s main sewer line.
