Alex Whitten joins Daniel Whitten Inspections as Home Inspector
July 11, 2023Alex Whitten has joined Daniel Whitten Inspections as a home inspector. Daniel Whitten Inspections offers full home and commercial inspections throughout the Upstate of South Carolina, plus additional inspection services including reinspections, first phase/pre-insulation inspections, limited-area inspections, builder’s letters, and CL-100 letters (wood infestation reports). Alex Whitten, who graduated from Anderson College with a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology and Exercise Science, worked for more than three years with a local landscape and construction company where he helped build decks, arbors, and retaining walls, installed patios, walkways, and driveways, installed and maintained sprinkler systems, and renovated exterior landscapes.
“It is a privilege to be able to provide mentorship and hands-on instruction and experience in the field for somebody entering the inspection industry,” said Daniel Whitten, founder and owner of Daniel Whitten Inspections. “I was very blessed to receive on-the-job training with the best inspectors in the business many years ago, and to be able to pass that apprenticeship opportunity on to my son is beyond anything I could have hoped for when I first entered the inspection industry more than twenty-five years ago. Alex already has so much experience in serving homeowners through his past work, but more importantly he has relational skills and a service orientation that I lacked at his age. He is already a tremendous asset to the business.”
“A great house is a starting point for families and individuals to build beautiful homes and beautiful lives,” said Alex Whitten. “I love to help people find and evaluate places to live and home inspecting is a great way to serve people and build relationships. For me, providing excellence in a service like home inspections is just a step in the process of building long-lasting loyal relationships.”
Whitten will participate in an apprenticeship process that includes co-inspections with his mentor of up to one hundred homes, then a progression to dual parallel inspections of houses and a comparison and evaluation on inspection reports. In the latter part of the apprenticeship process houses will undergo separate dual inspections with both inspectors.
Alex Whitten has served as a volunteer for more than a decade with the South Carolina Search and Rescue Dog Association, a non-profit that aids emergency management and law enforcement agencies in the search for missing persons using highly-trained search dogs. He also serves on the leadership team of the BackYard Bible Club (BYBC), which helps plan activities for children in challenging circumstances in Anderson, South Carolina.
Founded in 2022, Daniel Whitten Inspections provides full home and commercial inspections throughout the Upstate of South Carolina, along with occasional small to mid-sized contracting repair jobs on homes, specializing in at-sale house repairs on a deadline for buildings where the company has not performed inspections.
