This summer carpentry work eventually led to home construction skills that he honed throughout high school and college. At a young age he saw a wide array of construction practices, materials, and designs; working on everything from colonial and Victorian homes in New England to \u201cblow-and-go\u201d tract housing in the Colorado suburbs. (<i>We all have to make a living somehow<\/i>)<\/p><p>He graduated from The Colorado College in Colorado Springs, Colorado where he designed his own interdisciplinary Environmental Studies major. After college, he worked for a number of different contractors in many phases of construction and building and then started a small painting and contracting company in Boulder, Colorado. After successfully selling this company he followed his wife to the Pacific Northwest in the late 1990s where Dylan took up all manner of construction jobs to broaden his knowledge and experience. Projects included: a remodel that was featured in Fine Homebuilding, working on several large custom timber frame homes, construction of a sculpture studio, exterior deck, and stair construction, bathroom remodels, attic and basement conversions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4b8cb4c6\" data-id=\"4b8cb4c6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e342931 wow fadeInRight elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6e342931\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 25-04-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/orcainspect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/9350_Dylan-Chalk-scaled-1-qdzi6fw6nl8jpeu3rbw6wevnm9y7geveqh0oaogutc.jpg\" title=\"9350_Dylan-Chalk-scaled\" alt=\"9350_Dylan-Chalk-scaled\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-33ee6ee8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"33ee6ee8\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1d177786\" data-id=\"1d177786\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4daefd21 wow fadeInUp elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4daefd21\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Dylan began inspecting homes under the tutelage of his mentor and fellow home inspector Raj Hayden of Cardinal Home Inspections.
