In 1969 a young boy of barely 15 set out to learn all he could about the building industry, initially working for a company known today as ERCO Ceilings. That is where Sam Flamma began to learn the ins and outs of construction, moving quickly through the art of installing celings, drywall, spackling, metal stud work, etc.

He found himself in the Vietnam War from 1972 thru 1975. While in the U.S. Airforce he continued to learn and develop his skills at assessing structural problems and designs. Immediately following his discharge he received his degree in Fire Science Technology where a large portion of his education was in the construction and inspection(RCS) field. He continued his construction business and soon became one of the area's premiere custom remodelers and home builders [NJ LICENSE # 5249], while of course inspecting homes when inspections were not the large industry it is today.

Presently, Sam owns and operates Aardvark Home Inspections and performs all of the company's inspections himself. Sam limits his inspections to just one per day and allows as much time as necessary to properly complete the inspection. Sam does NOT accept any remodeling or repair work as a result of any of his inspections.

Sam currently teaches new inspectors and is a Certified Inspector[Gold Rating] with the American Society of Home Inspectors [# 205351], is currently licensed in New Jersey[24GI100015800] and is a licensed Radon Measurement Technician [MET 11030] for the State of New Jersey. Sam is approved by the New Jersey courts as an expert and has given expert testimony in many cases.

Sam's message is simple: "If you want personal attention and the benefit of more than 40 years' experience, put your trust in me. I am fully aware that when people buy a home, they are making the largest single investment they might make in their lives. I don't take that lightly, and when I am finished inspecting your home you will know all there is to know about that home BEFORE you buy it...you have my guarantee...you have my word."
