  Okay, so this is going to sound like sour grapes, but everyone needs to know about this inspection service. He just inspected our house for a potential buyer. One of the key "problems" he found was a poorly designed patio area that he claimed would cause flooding into the family room. He claimed the entire area would need to excavated and re-graded to solve the problem. His inspection didn't uncover a deficiency in design but a deficiency in his knowledge. This patio was designed with input from a civil engineer/architect which included a retaining wall that served a number of purposes, one of which was to divert water run off in the event of an extraordinary event. He somehow failed to notice this very obvious retaining wall. In addition, he did not ask if, we the owners, had ever had a water or flood issue. The answer would have been, if he had asked, that in over 30 years of living in the house, there was never an incident of water coming into the house. That includes our experiences with Hurricane Irene and Sandy.
