Your advocate in the decision
Meet Rosemary West.
“Not every recommendation is wrong. But every expensive recommendation should be clear.”
For more than 20 years, I crawled under homes, worked in attics, and helped homeowners understand termite, moisture, and crawlspace conditions. After an attic fall ended my field career, I created Before You Approve to keep using that experience for homeowners—not repair sales.
I hold a current Wood Destroying Insect license. I personally review every submission, and I will tell you when the evidence supports the work just as clearly as I will identify what still deserves an answer.
