Mike with Windy Ridge Home Inspections is very professional and very prompt. He was able to come out with only a couple days notice and get the inspection report back to us on the same day. Great service, highly recommended.

Michael is professional, friendly and easy to communicate with. He is thorough in his job. He also takes great care in making sure I am comfortable with asking any questions I might have. I didn’t have much as he was very detailed and clear on any and all information. Even offered if he doesn’t know, he will get it. Which he certainly holds up to that as well. I highly recommend him!

Mike of Windy Ridge was very responsive from the start! Answered his phone, quickly scheduled the appointment, and was very courteous. He showed up at the home early and got right to work examining every detail of the property. He stayed until all of our questions were answered. The well designed report was rapidly emailed to us and was so user friendly that I had no questions for follow up! I would recommend WindyRidge Home Inspections all day long!

ABOUT US

My name is Michael Dillman. owner/inspector of Windy Ridge Home Inspections. Been married for the last 18+ years to an amazing woman with 3 girls. My faith in Christ, along with character and integrity is very important to me.

Relevant Home Inspection Experience and Education

  • IFSTA (International Fire Service Training Association) Building construction
  • Attended annual (2 day) Global Leadership Conference for 7 consecutive years (2013-2019)
  • SOPHI (School of Professional Home Inspection) Certified Home Inspector – Burien, WA
  • Field training through American Home Inspectors Training school (AHIT) – Renton, WA
  • InterNACHI (International Association of Certified Home Inspectors) Certified Home Inspector
  • Washington State Department of Agriculture (Licensed Structural Pest Inspector)
  • CompletedInterNACHI How to Inspect Manufactured and Mobile Homes Course

Over the years I have attended annual leadership conferences learning how to better myself a little bit more each year. I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, camping, reading books, wood working and personal development, always striving to better myself to help and encourage others.

So how does my background assist me in being a home inspector? With over 25 years in emergency services, the knowledge and hands-on skills I acquired during that time, my strong points are interpersonal skills and knowing how to communicate and interact with others. To better understand how fire traveled throughout a building, I needed to have basic knowledge and understanding of building construction which gave me a better idea how to deal with the situations we were faced with. I performed company fire safety inspections in businesses and created detailed professional reports of my findings for our customers.

Attending and completing my home inspection training gave me a more well rounded understanding and advanced knowledge inside and out.

My recent and past experience and education allowed me to build strong communication skills to share and explain what I’m doing so you feel more comfortable and confident in your choice in choosing me as your home inspector. I look forward to the opportunity to earn your confidence and serve you.

Where am I from?:

I was raised in Helena, Montana. Before becoming an inspector, I was a firefighter in the US Air Force with 5 years of honorable service. Later I worked as a 911 Dispatcher eventually transitioning into a fantastic career as a firefighter/EMT in Helena retiring with 25 years of service.

I took pride in giving the best customer service and patient care with professionalism and compassion helping many on their worst day. I now look forward to helping those on their best day.
