At Leeway we aren’t just a team, we’re a family.

From 1995 to today, we have been blessed in having an incredible team working both in our office and out in the field. We are proud of how hard our team works day in and day out to serve communities throughout the country. We asked our staff to share their favorite qualities of working with the Leeway Family, and this is what they had to say….

Dennis Lee

Founder

I started Leeway because I wanted to provide for my family by doing what I love: consistent & well-respected progress inspections. I love Leeway's family atmosphere where everyone is working together for the same goal.

Cat Hernandez

President

Leeway has not only given me a career purpose, as I work to grow my family business, but it has also introduced me to outstanding people around the world with that I genuinely want to flourish and I'm so lucky to call my Leeway Family. The work that we do together feels so much more than progress inspections, it feels like a calling to help others both internally, as our team, and externally, as our clients.
