Clayton
President
Clayton was born and raised in Ennis, Texas. He is a man of strong Christian beliefs. He has been married to his wife, Julie, since 1997 and they have 5 sons. Clayton has been a welder, fork lift operator, warehouse supervisor, telephone cable splicer, and construction superintendent. Clayton has a Bachelor's of Science degree in Telecommunication Management. When he couldn't persue a position in that field when he graduated college because of the economy, he fell back to his construction background. That eventually led him to becoming a Professional Home Inspector in February 2005. When he isn't busy running the company, he enjoys spending time with his family, hunting, and wood working. - TREC 8059, NAWT 12300ITC, TDA 0737687, FAA 107, Level 1 Thermagrapher

Piper
Directory of Security
Piper is an unknown species of dog that is loved by most. She joined the Houston and Blackland Home Inspections family in 2017. She loves and adores the family. She gets so excited when everyone comes home for the day and loves to snuggle with the kids and have her belly rubbed. She is wonderful about letting us know when someone, other than family, arrives on the property with loud barking. She is a wonderful guard dog.
