Roland is a founding Partner and an Inspector with Pelorus Inspection & Environmental Resource Group. Roland has been providing residential and commercial inspections in the Atlanta-Metro area for more than 15 years and has conducted as many as 10,000 inspections. His experience and success is built on the belief that each property is unique and, whether within or outside the Atlanta-Metro area, Roland welcomes the opportunity to assist his clients in better understanding the property they are purchasing.
Roland's goal is to empower property buyers by sharing his knowledge and expertise in buildings, systems, and construction /environmental science. In addition to being a Certified Member of the American Society of Home Inspectors, Roland has extensive experience as a designer, custom home builder and renovator. He is also certified through Pro Lab as a mold inspector and is qualified to provide a range of environmental testing, including radon gas, lead, and asbestos.
Prior to co-founding Pelorus, Roland was integral in the growth, development and sale of another well-known, local inspection firm. His successful marketing and relationship development efforts, as well as his ability to recruit, train and mentor over a dozen new inspectors, contributed substantially to the firm’s growth during his 15-year tenure. In addition to his passion for training new inspectors for success in the industry, Roland also has a strong foundation in technology and automation. For his previous firm, he was the first to identify the need for online/website based scheduling, setting a new standard for the inspection industry in the region. In combination with his breadth of expertise and experience, Roland’s light hearted and non-alarmist approach provides clients with both a deep sense of comfort as well as the knowledge necessary to make well-informed decisions.
Originally from the Big Sky Country of Montana, Roland enjoys backpacking, fly fishing and the search for great local cuisine. However, when given the option, he will always choose a campfire with good friends and family.
