Mark Phaneuf
Mark Phaneuf is a homeowner, publisher, and systems builder. He founded Ikan Media Inc. in 2009 and publishes Safe Home Experts to make the confusing parts of owning a home easier to act on: what to check first, when to stop, what to document, and how to vet the person you hire.
Editorial role
Mark sets the publication's homeowner-first standard and is accountable for the guides published under his name. The voice is practical, calm, skeptical of pressure, and specific about evidence. Forum discussions help identify real questions; technical answers are checked against government agencies, manufacturer documentation, state records, and other named authoritative sources.
What this byline does not mean
Mark is not a contractor, engineer, insurer, attorney, or financial adviser. Articles distinguish basic homeowner observations from electrical, structural, hazardous-material, insurance, lending, and other work that requires a qualified professional or individualized advice.
