MEET MATT
Matt is the owner and operator of Main Inspections LLC and a licensed general contractor with extensive experience in the construction industry. Over the years, he has performed thousands of home inspections, providing clients with detailed, honest, and insightful evaluations of their homes.
Having lived in Tacoma for over a decade, Matt proudly calls this city home. Before moving to Washington in 2012, he spent most of his life in a small rural community in Michigan. Growing up in a close-knit town shaped his values and the way he conducts business today. When he founded Main Inspections, he built the company on a foundation of integrity, hard work, and genuine client engagement—because your word matters, the work you do matters, and how you treat people matters.
Matt believes that a home inspection is more than just a checklist; it’s an opportunity to educate and empower homeowners. He actively encourages his clients to attend and participate in their inspections, ensuring they leave with the knowledge and confidence needed to make informed decisions about their homes.
My Name Is: Matthew Main
I Am: A small business owner trying to spend as much time outside as possible.
Born In: New Mexico! My mother served in the US Airforce, which is why we are proud to support our service members.
Proudest Moment: That’s a tough one…I have had a lot to be proud of and thankful for, but my proudest moments change regularly. Building a successful business that is able help others is currently the top of the list.
Why Do You Inspect Homes: I love helping people and I love figuring out problems. What better way to do that than inspecting homes?
My Superhero Power: Inspecting homes of course! It’s also somewhat of a curse. I can’t go anywhere without noticing things that are wrong. It doesn’t matter if it’s a home, business, or random building. It’s a struggle to stop inspecting, even when I am with friends and family in their homes.
My Perfect Day: Spending a day outside with the pup, preferably at the lake or somewhere in the mountains.
Favorite Place in Washington: I have a secret camping spot in the Cascades that we go to regularly with friends and family.
What Is Your Favorite Travel Destination: Having lived a short time in Hawaii, the islands will always be a special place, but I recently spent sometime in Sedona and the views absolutely blew me away.
Favorite Sports Team: I’ll cheer for any team from Michigan, but the Wolverines and Lions are easily my favorite two teams to cheer for.
Favorite Hobbies: Anything outdoors. Swimming, snowboarding, camping, bonfires, you name it…if it’s something outside, I’m there!
Do You Have Any Pets: Absolutely! I have two rescues, an adorable pup and my travel buddy/sidekick Lucky, and an ageless Viking cat Needler (I swear she has been 15 for at least three years now)
