As a past licensed general contractor in Washington State, we can claim a construction background many other inspectors cannot. This includes extensive experience with sub-structure and foundation repairs; pest damage repairs; crawl space water management; LP siding repair and replacement; remodels; additions; HUD 203K restorations; and roofing. We were also a Preferred Contractor for Owens Corning roofing products.
Cameo Home Inspection Services began business in 1999 after closing Cameo Construction Services. Since then Cameo has become the most respected and recognized name in home inspections in Thurston county. Our Inspector is a frequent contributor to the local paper and is dedicated to consumer protection and education. He authored an informational booklet, "The Agent's Guide to Home and Pest Inspections" and recently completed a new book entitled, "What if Houses Could Talk?" Approaching 5000 inspections to date, Cameo prides itself on being the most qualified home inspection service in Thurston County. Cameo is also an independent business. Unlike a large franchise that advertises qualifications their individual owners may not be able to live up to, we can back up our qualifications. We offer uncommon service and extreme excellence, not offers and temptations like discount coupons and prize giveaways.
