Built From Real Experience
My Navy background drives thorough inspections, protecting clients through experience.

From Engine Rooms To Basements
My name is James Mack, a property inspector. In the Navy I earned the name “Pit Snipe,” working below deck to keep critical systems running safely. That role demanded discipline, checklists, and constant awareness that small issues could become big problems fast. Today I bring that same mindset into every inspection. I study the full system of your property, not just single items, so you gain a clear picture of how everything works together to protect your safety and investment.
The Home That Sparked Change
When my fiancée and I bought our home, it looked fine during walk-throughs. Within months we faced a leaking basement, noisy floors, electrical trouble, and half-finished repairs that should have been flagged. Insurance claims piled up, stress grew, and rates climbed. I kept asking how this could have been caught earlier. That frustration turned into a mission. I built Pit Snipe to help buyers avoid those surprises and move forward with eyes wide open.

Standing With You
I do not view an inspection as a one-time visit. Every inspection includes a warranty, and I offer free reinspections until agreed repairs are completed correctly. That means you are not alone when contractors finish work or negotiations wrap up. I come back, verify the fixes, and explain what changed, so you close with confidence. If you want that level of support, reach out and let me protect your next purchase.
