I am a fifth generation general contractor from Shelby NC. I started working in construction as soon as I was old enough to handle a shovel with the handle cut in half. I attended NC State University ,enlisted in the US Army and was honorably discharged as a tank commander. I graduated from Appalachian State University in 1990 and came to work for the family business. In 1995 I formed JW Ramsey & Son Home Inspections and continue to perform Home Inspections, bank construction draw inspections, construction consulting for the piedmont and western NC area as well as perform construction administration duties for my family general contracting business.
As a natural offshoot of inspections I began offering radon testing in 1996 and Radon mitigation in 2002. I have worked with UNCC and the NCDENR radon section to investigate significant radon levels particular to certain geographic areas of NC. I am a certified mitigator with the state of NC, a member of The National Environmental Health Association and a past member of The National Radon Safety Board. I have mitigated radon levels from 4.0 Pi/L- 30.0 Pi/L successfully in both crawlspace, basement and combination homes from the lower NC piedmont region to the foothills of NC.
