Scott and Rick

Scott Wilder, President

The top dog, the boss, troubleshooter, and trainer. 16th year in the business. Being available for clients to call him is high on his priorities - is his cell phone surgically attached?

Favorite thing about the home inspection business: The relationships we build with our clients and helping people save money, as well as teaching them about their home - such an important investment in their lives - is very rewarding.

Rick Vernon, Inspector

7 (almost 8!) years with us. Eats, drinks and sleeps inspections. ASHI member, FHA Inspector, continues to learn how to serve our clients better. Grew up in Grand Haven, lives in Zeeland. Married the girl next door in 1971. One daughter, two adorable grandchildren.

Favorite thing about inspecting: Helping people meet the dream of a new home, the ongoing learning process, and working with a professional team.

Dawn Wilder, Marketing Director

Marketing programs, web designer, owner of MomsCouponBook.com. Anita Baker fan.

Favorite job: Being Scott's wife for almost 29 years and being mom to three great kids. Two of them, who help out in the office, are pictured here, too!

Favorite thing about working with Ace Inspections: It is all about fun - how much fun can I share with our clients and brighten other people's days? Marketing allows me to use my imagination and help us show our clients how much we want to help them. How cool a jAob is that?

Photo forthcoming!

Kris Laplow, Office Manager

Main phone gal, dispatcher, multi-tasker extraordinaire. Kris is known for treating our clients with kindness and respect. And if she doesn't know the answer to a question, she will be sure to find out.

Kris will do what it takes to take care of our clients - we can't keep up with her!
