GREG HINES took shifts with stepfather Butch Valko's water/fire restoration company as he was growing up, when he wasn't playing sports and surfing. After graduating from Sonoma State University, he opted to climb the ladder in the restaurant business, earning the position of General Manager in a busy SLO steakhouse. This pushed him to pursue a detail-oriented profession and to embrace the entrepreneurial spirit modeled by his parents. After one-on-one mentoring with Butch (a Home Inspector since 2002) and graduating from the Michael Casey & Associates program, Greg became certified with CRIEA to inspect homes.
