- About Owner & Inspector Steven Hampton
Steven Hampton embarked on his home inspection career in 2020, establishing his business with his wife after transitioning from BP and the corporate world. Driven by a long-standing interest in the field and inspired by past inspection experiences that fell short, Steven sought to create a service defined by thoroughness and genuine client care. He values the sense of accomplishment that comes from providing helpful information, a stark contrast to his previous corporate roles where he often felt disconnected from the impact of his work. Steven prioritizes a personal touch, treating clients like friends and delivering the timely, high-quality service he himself expects.
Outside of inspections, Steven’s greatest joy comes from spending quality time with his wife Shirley and their family. Together, they enjoy hiking, music, movies, and supporting his daughter’s sports and activities. He also actively contributes to his community through his involvement with Meals on Wheels and various causes supported by the Freemasons.
