Introduction: Your home inspection doesn't have to be stressful, unpleasant, or complicated. I'm easy to work with and professional, know what to look for, and more importantly--how to explain it, I've been involved in home construction for 25 years, am a licensed contractor but also have a master's degree in Journalism from UC Berkeley and experience as a newspaper reporter in Philadelphia and San Francisco, as well as a city editor. ​ So, I know how to put my findings in a clear and concise report, on deadline--usually within 24-hours--including photos, drone footage, and a promise to be available for as long as it takes to explain anything in my report.

Chris made a special effort on our part to basically make a needed assessment of the overall structural integrity on my house. He dug in, and made a fully documented review with clear pictures of the state of things. He had no qualms about going into the grubby, generally unpleasant crawlspace, and gave me a clear idea of what his findings were. If you're in need of a full home inspection, Chris is your pick. Very well done!

I recently had a home inspection done with Merrill Home Inspections. Chris did a fantastic job. He was punctual and professional. He did a very thorough inspection and sent me a detailed report with photos and recommendations for repairs. Also he’s a genuinely nice guy. I felt he really cares about the work he does. I highly recommend them for home inspections!

Chris is an extremely knowledgeable professional. He took his time inspecting the property and then provided a very detailed and thorough report to my client. He was available to answer any and all questions also. I would highly recommend Chris to my peers in the Real Estate industry to perform quality inspections for their clients.
