About Us

Sherlock Homes - Knowledge and Experience”     “On the Case in the Community

Sherlock Homes Inspections is committed to providing service that goes above and beyond what you will receive anywhere else - we guarantee it.

It starts with the two most important qualities a home inspector can possess - knowledge and experience. Our trained, insured and certified House Detectives have years of hands-on experience in residential construction and historic restoration. Unlike many inspectors, we are experts in construction methods and materials, and we know building codes.

We look for telltale clues of potential problems depending upon the age and location of your home. Our experience helps you learn more about your home, and catches potential problems that less knowledgeable inspectors may miss.

Our inspections exceed all industry standards. Where some inspectors will test only a few windows and receptacles, we check them all. Where many inspectors will not climb roofs, we almost insist on it.

All of this knowledge and experience is reflected in our report which not only identifies problems, but tells you exactly why it is a concern, and suggests possible fixes. We want your report to be something you refer to often, so we write it in plain English, fill it with detailed pictures, and stay on-site until all your questions are answered. We print it for you minutes after you inspection, and we offer it all online so you can share the experience with distant friends and family.

To top it all off, if you are not satisfied with our inspection, you don't pay.

Sherlock Homes Inspection Services is a locally-owned business, not a franchise, so we are deeply committed to the community we serve.

In fact, Sherlock Homes Inspections is the founder and corporate sponsor of the Pennsylvania Home Safety Coalition (PAHSC), a new charitable organization dedicated to improving safety in the home by offering free services to the disadvantaged.

Sherlock Homes offers free childproofing kits and information to expectant parents and conducts free childproofing inspections for single mothers or disadvantaged parents who want to know how to protect their newborn.

We also respect and care for those who built our country - for this reason, we offer discounted fire and safety inspections for Senior Citizens ($25 or less).

Together with PAHSC, Sherlock Homes is leading the effort to collect used cell phones and recycle them by giving them to the elderly and victims of domestic abuse for emergency use.

A home should be a safe haven for all, and Sherlock Homes Inspections goes the extra mile to ensure that.

Please call us at (215) 620-5308 to take advantage of any of these community services, or to donate a phone or make a tax-deductible contribution to the PAHSC.

With years of experience in remodeling and historic renovation, Sherlock Homes understands the proper methods and materials for any home – new or old.
