John Griffith, Owner and U.S. Navy Veteran

CPI NACHI25031326, TN License #3069

I grew up in East Tennessee and graduated from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I am a born-again Christian and have been married to my wonderful wife, Cindy, since 2008. Our marriage has been blessed with 5 children - a verifiable handful!


My qualifications include certification as an InterNACHI Professional Certified Home Inspector and a licensed home inspector with the State of Tennessee. I am also fully insured with E&O and General Liability Insurance. InterNACHI is the world's largest residential and commercial inspection association and the only home inspector school accredited by a national accrediting agency of the U.S. Department of Education.


My inspections are not technically exhaustive, but are non-invasive, visual inspections of properties and the systems and components within a home. Properties are inspected in accordance with the Tennessee Standards of Practice for licensed home inspectors. A description of functionality of systems and defects that I observe, along with recommendations for repair, monitoring, or further evaluation, will be provided in a detailed, professional report that is populated following the inspection and delivered to you in a timely manner- usually within 24 hours! From start to finish, my best inspection will ensure that your investment is covered!

Client Testimonials

Our clients' satisfaction is our top priority. Here are some testimonials from satisfied customers who have experienced our inspection services firsthand!

Group 4

"Thank you for your inspection service. I am in the Property Management business for 40 years and have reviewed hundreds of home inspection reports. Your report on my home was one of the most thorough I have ever seen. No aspect of the home was overlooked or glossed over. You took the time to review and understand how the home was constructed, methods used, and my expectations of the home builder, then incorporated it into your report. Your service was extremely prompt, thorough and thoughtful. I could recommend your service to any of my family, friends or professional contacts, without exception. Thank you again."

Afterward, he discussed the inspection findings with us and then provided recommendations for maintaining a healthy home. We are thankful for Higher Rock Inspections!"
