Our mission is to bring clarity and confidence to every inspection so our clients can make informed real estate decisions.

Whether you’re purchasing your first home, selling a property, or managing investments, we ensure you leave the inspection understanding — not just owning it.

Meet Your Inspector

Drew Kelley Home Inspector in Paducah Kentucky with Home-Ed Inspection Services

Hi, I’m Drew Kelley - Founder of Home-Ed Inspection Services LLC

At Home-Ed Inspection Services, my mission is simple — to educate and empower homeowners at every stage of ownership.

I grew up in the construction and remodeling industry, where I developed a deep respect for craftsmanship, structure, and the details that make a home stand the test of time. Over the years, my wife and I have been active in real estate investing — from buy-and-hold strategies to flips and multi-family properties — experiences that strengthened my understanding of property maintenance, building systems, and long-term value.

Before founding Home-Ed, I spent nearly a decade in the health and safety field, inspecting and auditing worksites. That background honed my attention to detail and risk prevention mindset, both of which now define my approach to home inspection.

Today, I bring that same safety-first focus and analytical eye to every inspection — providing not just a report, but real insight into the condition, safety, and performance of your home.

As an InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector (CPI), Certified Safety Professional (CSP), and FAA-Licensed Drone Pilot, I approach each inspection with a commitment to clarity, integrity, and education. My goal is to ensure every client walks away with confidence, understanding, and the tools to make informed decisions about their property.

Whether it’s your first home, forever home, or next investment, I’m here to guide you through it with honesty, transparency, and a dedication to your peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a home inspection and why do I need one?

A home inspection is a thorough, visual evaluation of the major systems and components of a home. It helps identify safety concerns, needed repairs, or future maintenance items so you can make an informed decision before buying, selling, or maintaining a property.

Are there things a home inspector does not inspect?

Yes. A standard home inspection is a visual, non-invasive assessment. We do not move furniture, open walls, or perform destructive testing. Specialized services like sewer scopes, radon testing, or environmental hazard testing are not included unless specifically added to your inspection.

Do I need to be present during the inspection?

It’s not required, but we strongly encourage it! Being there allows you to see the home through the eyes of an inspector, ask questions, and get maintenance tips. If you can’t attend, you’ll still receive a detailed written report with photos.

Will I get a written report, and how soon after the inspection?

Yes! You’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-read digital report with photos and explanations. Most reports are delivered the same day or within 24 hours of your inspection.

Can a home inspection “pass” or “fail” a house?

No. A home inspection is not a test that a home passes or fails. Instead, it provides objective information about the current condition of the property. The report helps you understand what’s normal maintenance, what needs repair, and what may be a safety concern.

What should I do if the inspection finds problems?

Almost every home has issues — even new ones. The inspection gives you knowledge to decide what’s acceptable and what needs negotiation or repair. You can use the report to request repairs, adjust your offer, or simply plan for future maintenance.
