Cottage to Castle Home Inspection Services

Jeff LeBlanc become a Certified Home Inspector in 2014 after the passing of his close friend and home inspector, Dan Pluim. As a Realtor® Jeff used Dan’s services almost exclusively. Jeff would attend the inspection in order to learn valuable information to improve his knowledge of local homes. What started out as a business relationship grew into a true friendship. Jeff had recently left the real estate industry when Dan become sick. Jeff started taking his courses and was partially through his studies when Dan lost his battle with cancer on June 10, 2014. Jeff completed his studies and opened his company, Jeff LeBlanc Home Inspection Services in July 2014. The company logo was designed at that time with Dan at the center and Dan’s company, Cottage to Castle as the back ground images.

Jeff had a very successful first year performing over 300 inspections. The company expanded with Doug MacDonald joining as a partner in August 2015. Jeff & Doug have been continuing to assist buyers and sellers with their home inspection needs. With the busy summer season Jeff has added his brother Mike LeBlanc as a partner.They have now inspected over 700 homes combined.

With the permission of Dan’s widow, Kim. Jeff LeBlanc Home Inspection Services became Cottage to Castle Home Inspection Services on June 10, 2016. Thank you Dan and Kim, You are with me every day on my hat and chest!
