Qualifications
18+ years of building inspection experience!
Joe Funderburk is the owner of Alpha &
Omega Home Inspections, LLC. There are no employees or sub-contractors--you
hire me and you get me. I'm a
Nationally Certified Master Home Inspector,
International Code Council Certified Commercial Building and Residential
Building Inspector, NC Licensed Home Inspector, SC Licensed Home Inspector,
Certified Thermographer, Certified Mold Inspector, Certified Indoor Air
Consultant, and a member of the National Association of Certified Home
Inspectors. I've totaled
thousands of home and commercial building inspections and completed countless hours of training since
my inspection
business began in 2005, including NC required annual training. I wired and
plumbed my own 2800 SF house. I
inspected hundreds of homes and commercial buildings as a code inspector for the
Town of Clover and the City of Rock Hill. Currently in addition to my private inspection business, I am a Building Inspector for
Mecklenburg County, NC.
Experience
As mentioned above,
I am currently a Building Inspector III for
Mecklenburg County, NC. Prior to that, I was a
Commercial and Residential Building Inspector
for the City of Rock Hill, SC. I was also previously the
Building Official / Building Inspector for
another SC municipality from 2010 to 2013. Previous
careers include four years as an
Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA)
Compliance Officer inspecting the
construction industry in SC. OSHA ingrained in me a detective-like mindset, along with
thoroughness, documentation and report writing skills that are the main assets I bring to the inspection industry. While with OSHA, I inspected a major hydro-electric project being built by Duke
Power Company, and they hired me. I spent the following eleven years
in the electric utility industry with Duke Energy in managerial and scientific
positions, including Safety Supervisor at nuclear, fossil, and hydro plants,
where I was responsible for safety inspections at large-scale construction and
maintenance projects in NC & SC. I began my own building inspection company
in 2005.
Education
My
formal educational background includes two university
Bachelor degrees from Clemson University
and Winthrop University.

Our Promise
Choosing the right home inspector can be
difficult. Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until
after you hire me. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying
qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods, and yes, different
pricing. One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of
work. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual
inspector's own effort. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new
home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort. This I promise you.
Why Hire Me?

years of experience as a home inspector!

states, professional athletes,
diplomats, and corporate executives.

• Experienced and licensed code
enforcement inspector. Three years of government inspections of new and
remodel construction (residential and commercial) inspections

as a Home Inspector in NC and SC
(Important if you live in SC since there are no stringent licensing

in SC and no annual training requirements at all in SC).
• Highly Educated (2

• Certified

I spend lots of time on each home. I never do more than 2 inspections a day.
Often times, I spend 4 hours or more on an average home.
Many inspectors work on volume and do 4 homes a day at a low price per home,
which means they may spend no more than 1.5 hours on your home!
• If you hire MY company, you get
ME -- not an inexperienced employee or greenhorn franchise owner.
Most inspectors are no more than employees, working on
commission, with no "skin in the game".

than the following Monday morning.)
