I hired Merwyn Bowdish via AngiesList. I had spoken with and gotten quotes by numerous other home…read moreinspectors prior to choosing Mr. Bowdish. Everyone was about 200+ higher than his quote was for my home. He had a VERY competitve price, which made me weary but his reviews online were flawless, so I chose to hire him and this was a very wise decision. Mr. Bowdish arrived about 10-15 minutes before our arranged time and was ready to go upon my arrival. He spent about six (6) hours in my newly purchased home scouring it with a fine-toothed comb to find any and everything that could be wrong to let me know. He was VERY informative, very professional, and wanted to have me included in the inspection process so I was aware of anything found and everything that was in good order. I leared an immense amount about the home I purchased through him and his experience and couldn't have been happier with my choice to utilize his services. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to him and will be sure to refer him to anyone that asks me if I know a home inspector. In my line of work, I work with profesional inspectors regularly on a business level and his level of professionalism, expertise and knowledge was spectacular. Thank you for the great service you provided me and my family in our first home purchase!

For example, a design feature of the house present in all houses in the neighborhood is presented as a structural issue that needed investigated and, therefore, a reason to hire a structural engineer.

Furthermore, his behavior on-site was unprofessional, directing inappropriate jokes at people present that made us deeply embarrassed.

Shame on any Realtor who recommends this unqualified, unethical inspector--it makes us wonder if those referrals were incentivized. This is exactly why home inspectors get such a bad reputation.
