Meet the Team

Owners (Stan & Shanna Audette)

Although Stan originally started the home inspection company in 1994, he was soon thereafter joined full-time by his wife, Shanna, in 1995. Since then, they have together grown the company to serve all of the Treasure Valley with an ever-growing team of inspectors, transcriptionists, and other support staff. Shanna brought a wealth of management experience and common sense to the company when she joined it. She directs the booking systems, the financial and bookkeeping tasks, and all office staff operations. Whereas, Stan focuses more on the technical aspects of inspections, report generation, and inspector training.

Stan Audette

Stan is a native Idahoan. He grew up in a family that enjoyed camping, hunting, and fishing. He’s been an archer and bowhunter all his life because his father owned an archery shop. He began working with his grandfather at age 14 remodeling and building homes, which is where he gained his love for the building trades. During several years in his youth, he played sax professionally in a rock-n-roll band; yet he still keeps a sax, clarinet, flute, harmonicas, and guitar continually set up in his office for relaxation. He graduated from the University of Idaho with a BSEE degree after attending the first two years of college at BJC (BSU’s predecessor). Through college, he worked as an engineer’s aid, survey crew chief, and draftsman, designing, surveying, and inspecting roads, highways, public water and sewer systems, and subdivisions. After college, he became a certified nuclear reactor operator and control systems engineer. He also owned a cabinetmaking shop on the side (because his grandfather was a cabinetmaker). He then worked for Idaho Power Company for 13 years, computerizing their hydro plants, specifying and purchasing major power equipment, and designing both overhead and underground power distribution systems. But, since 1994, he and his wife, Shanna, have owned and managed AAD Inspection Corp, helping tens of thousands of homebuyers towards their dreams while simultaneously acting as a renovation loan consultant on more than 450 projects.
