Pacific West Home Inspections

This company has got to be the worst home inspection firm in the Salmon Arm region. Several statements made by this company in writing on a submitted report on the condition of our home were proven to be inaccurate or absolutely false. This was proven by professional electricians and plumbing and heating specialist called in to review the house as a result of these false statements.

SAVE YOUR MONEY! DO NOT USE this home inspection company. As home seller, I would have to say that this is the worst home inspection I have ever witnessed. As a home buyer, I wonder why an inspector would take such pride in crushing the hopes of buying a dream home. Complaints he brought up that killed the sale were inspected the next day by actual professionals and the house passed with flying colours, . DO NOT USE!!!

Caught All Hidden Issues And More

With several home inspectors to now choose from, I went with one that had the most experiance and has been in business for over 12 years. This inspector took nearly 6 hours to complete the inspection on site. Dave was very detailed and throurgh. It took another 2 hours back at his office to complete the report and then he emailed it to me. What a detailed report, easy to understand, lots of photos with diagrams and at the start of the report, a report summery outling the major and minor issues of the home. He is so good, he did not even need one of those thermoimaging machines that some inspectors boast to have, all he used was visual common sense and a moisture meter. His fee was $450.00 but was worth every penny, I paid a higher price for an inspector here, but got someone with experiance, knowledge and has performed thousands of inspections. Ya, I could have got the inspector that charges $350. - $400. like most newbies I found out, but, if I did, I would have got exactly what I paid for, a cheap inspection. Anyway, I highly recommend Dave and will not hesitate to use him again or recommend his professional sevices to anyone.
