Our Story

Our Previous Chapter

Tier-1 Pro Inspections is proudly veteran-owned and operated by myself, Sean Richards and my wife Sarah.

As a former U.S. Army Sergeant Major and Tier-1 Operator in a Special Missions Unit, the core of Tier-1 Pro Inspections can be summarized by what made me successful as an operator in our country’s most selective special operations unit: 

  • Commitment to Service
  • Integrity Beyond Reproach 
  • Unwavering Self-Discipline
  • Unparalleled Selfless Service

After 20yrs of service with the U.S. Army, my family and we settled in Central Florida to be closer to extended family, all of whom are life-long residents of Central Florida.
