Joshua Woodby
Certified NJ Home Inspector, InterNACHI Certified Home Inspector

The mission of Shakes & Shingles is to provide confidence in understanding how a home should operate, potential issues and the timeline  for potential maintenance needs of the desired property. Given the size and importance of one's investment put into a home, our goal is to provide a clear, easy to understand assessment of a property's strengths and potential risks. This business is built and maintained on its reputation of integrity, trust and providing the customer with peace of mind. 

Our founder, Joshua Woodby has been active in the real estate industry for over 15 years with property investment, renovations and re-sales. His previous work experience in operations (financial trade, hospitality and sales) were founded on determining how best a business or project is run, identifying potential issues and advising on how to address them. This is the same process used in evaluating the homes he's purchased and how he approaches every home inspection for our clients. First, review and observe the home's structure and how its systems run. Then compare this against his extensive knowledge on how systems should run and how structures should be built. Lastly, identify the risks of what may not work and the timeline for maintenance needed for critical systems. After living and working in the tri-state area for 10+ years, Josh's experience covers a range of home types - from the 6000+ square foot mansion to the hi-rise penthouse to the country farm house to charming townhome.
