Bryan Ernst, OHI.2019005914

My name is Bryan Ernst, Certified Professional Home Inspector (Ohio License OHI.2019005914) here at EHI Inspection Services. We are a family-owned and operated business, and we are not your average home inspection company—we do things a little differently here.

My wife, Gwyn Ernst, and I have been married for 21 years, after meeting and dating in high school. Family has always been at the center of everything we do, and that perspective shapes how we approach every home inspection. Buying a home is personal to me, because I understand just how important it is to you, your family, and the legacy you are building.

We believe a great inspection is about more than just a report. We spend a great deal of time with you before, during, and after your home inspection. Before the inspection begins, we take the time to review the inspection agreement with you so you know exactly what to expect. During the inspection, we welcome your questions and explain how your home’s systems work, helping you truly understand your investment.

Our commitment doesn’t end when the report is delivered. We make ourselves available for months—and even years—after your inspection. To put it simply, we’re not just a home inspection company. My family and I are your neighbors and friends. We run our business the way we live our lives—assuming we’ll see you at the store every week, because we probably will.

EHI Inspection Services is truly a family operation. My mother-in-law, Deanna Lund, has been an essential part of our team for over 6 years, serving as our office manager and scheduler—and unofficial “gossip queen” (we say that with love). When you call our office, chances are you’ll be greeted by someone who genuinely cares about you, your schedule, and making the process smooth from start to finish.

Our family also has deep ties to the United States Air Force, which shapes our values of integrity, accountability, and service. Our oldest son, Austin Ernst, proudly serves as a Senior Airman in the United States Air Force and is currently stationed at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho. Our youngest son, Cayden, is finishing up his junior year of high school and is actively considering joining the U.S. Air Force after graduation, inspired to follow in the footsteps of his brother, Senior Airman Austin Ernst, as well as his uncle, Master Sergeant Jordan Trick, and his sister-in-law, Senior Master Sergeant Monik Trick.

Military service is more than a career in our family—it’s a legacy. That same sense of duty, honesty, and commitment carries over into every inspection we perform. When you choose EHI Inspection Services, you’re not just hiring an inspector—you’re working with a family that understands trust, responsibility, and looking out for one another.

My mottos are simple and guide every inspection I perform:
“I work for the buyer.”
“Being honest can hurt—but you, the buyer, pay the mortgage. You deserve to know exactly what I see.”

Integrity, transparency, and being able to sleep well at night are always at the forefront of my business—because that’s the only way I know how to do this job.
