Background
The Self-Confessed House Geek
Lee Verhagen, owner and operator of Vital Inspections Plus, deeply appreciates craftsmanship and construction techniques. He remembers fondly working on remodeling projects as a kid with his dad and watching “This Old House” on the weekends. From an early age, his appreciation for the craftsmanship of old homes grew. Most notably, his favorites are mid-1920s homes with built-in hutches and cabinets, tall baseboards, and wooden doors. “They don’t make houses like they used to… older houses are a thing of beauty,” he daydreams. Pursuing home inspections was a way for Lee to “geek out” and learn about the histories of different styles of homes and the unique communities they are located in. Like any true hobbyist, he enjoys sharing his knowledge with others.
