DO NOT HIRE EGBERT You will regret it unless your pockets are deep - Quotes from his meeting are as follows.
1. "My only guarantee is that I missed something"
2. " I don't nit pick about things, therefore I will be leaving that out of the report"
3. " Yes you did hire me, however I don't want to piss off anyone in this small industry therefore I will be omitting that from the report"
As a fellow contractor, I was extremely disappointed in the services provided by Egbert. Several major items were missed and I had to bring them to his attention. So far he missed improper wiring for underground application ( That failed after an electrical inspector came out to look at it {5K to repair}- also Egbert looked at it and said nothing) He also missed a leak in the roof that has cost around 15k in damages - so far) He ignored a leaking duct in the closed off ceiling which caused the drywall to pick up moisture and bow down ( cost is unknown but quotes are around 5K - 8K)
Once again if you hire someone to do a job for you, they should not omit any information, they should be looking out for you, they should be aware of local codes and diligent.
Egbert - you could have saved me 25K+ in repairs that would have been avoided if you did your job. Very disappointed.
Your better off putting the 500 toward repairs on your house then to hire this guy.
