Mitchell Shaw
Mitchell Shaw is double certified by the International Code Council and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors. He studied technical theatre at Georgia Southern University where he met his now-wife Kelsey. They lived in Savannah, Ga., for 5 years where he worked in the hospitality industry. They moved back to the Atlanta area after the birth of their first daughter, Michaela. Soon after Michaela’s birth, a second daughter Madelyn was welcomed to the family as well. He currently lives in Snellville, Ga., wherein his free time he enjoys all things geeky and nerdy. Mitchell has been building and using his hands all of his life. That, along with a passion for teaching and passing information onto others, led him to pursue becoming a home inspector. Not only does he love using his knowledge to ensure that any house he inspects will be a great home for the family looking to live there, but also distributing the technical details in a way that can be easily understood.
After viewing Sure Thing Inspections on YouTube and reading many reviews about their service, I decided to hire them for two inspections. The first was to get a framing inspection for a new build. I found Sure Thing and in particular Mitchell Shaw to be very thorough and accurate in his inspection. Because this was during the height of Covid-19, I was unable to attend but on the same evening of the inspection, Mitchell sent me the report. I was so pleased with his findings (which were numerous; (never trust the builder to perform his or her own inspection)) that I hired Sure Thing Inspections again to perform my final inspection. Again, during Covid-19, I elected not to be present during the inspection, but Mitchell came through. He was very thorough again, and the report came back the same evening. Mitchell also performed a Radon test which came back positive for Radon and I am now in the process of getting a Radon Mitigation System in place. Luckily, I have a good builder as well and he has fixed most of the findings Mitchell pointed out. Mitchell has saved me thousands from roof shingles that needed to be replaced to improper vents, to faulty electrical work. Thank you so much Mitchell and Sure Thing Inspections for your thoroughness and hard work.
