 Hi! I am Dave Boyd with Powder Valley Home Inspections. If you are searching for an inspector, I understand that you have many choices. That is why I would like to explain to you why I am the best choice for your home inspector.

My report is computer generated with digital pictures, and arrows pointing to any problems. The report is clear and easy to understand. I will make every effort to discover and report any defects or areas of concern to you. After you review your report, you will feel confident that I was thorough and had your best interest in mind.
