What sets us apart?

Top Rated Inspection Company in the Philadelphia Area

Lots of companies declare themselves “the best,” and it really doesn’t mean much. But when the people who use their services send in rave reviews to consumer reporting services - well, that’s quite a different story!

Sherlock Homes Inspections is proud to be the ONLY Philadelphia area inspection company whose clients have been so happy that they took the initiative to share their experiences with other consumers – ranking us far above the competition.

As a result of their unsolicited reports to consumer-driven websites and services like Angie’s List, Delaware Valley Checkbook, and ServiceMagic, our clients have helped us achieve customer service ratings that no inspection company in the area can even come close to!

The rave reviews from our clients helped us achieve the Angie’s List Super Service Award in 2006 (the most recent award). No other inspection company in the area is able to say that.

We have more client reviews (over 60!) with ServiceMagic than any other inspectors, and our clients have rated us 4.7 stars out of 5! (Between us, we are still shooting for perfection!) In fact, Sherlock Homes Inspections is the ONLY area inspector listed in the “All Star Contractor” publication produced by ServiceMagic.

Sherlock Homes makes sure you know that YOU are the most important person at the inspection. That’s why we offer you CHOICES of inspection levels and prices, work to accommodate your schedule, take the time to answer all of your questions, and provide you with FREE continuing Client Care for as long as you are in your home. .

We take Client Care VERY seriously. That’s why we can confidently GUARANTEE your Happiness, or you don’t pay.

Easy Scheduling, Fast Response

When time is of the essence, we work to fit your needs, so you have one less thing to worry about. We work 7 days a week (including holidays! ), mornings or evenings to fit your schedule. Our 24/7 online or phone scheduling makes it easy, and RUSH Appointments are available on as little as 12 hours notice.

Thorough Inspections

Our inspections are more than just “elementary,” we exceed all industry standards of practice (ASHI, NACHI, NAHI). Unlike many inspectors, we will climb every accessible roof and enter every accessible crawlspace.

We physically inspect every accessible area and system of a home including:

Structure & Foundation Basements
Attics Plumbing
Electrical Porches & Decks
Property Gutters & Drainage
Heating & Cooling ALL Doors, Windows, Fixtures, Lights and Outlets
Roofing ( on the roof whenever possible)  

Online Reports and Digital Pictures

Sherlock Homes reports are available online and waiting in your inbox less than 24 hours after your inspection. Your informative report features digital pictures of every room, system, and point of interest in the home, as well as links to more information about your home and its maintenance.  Whenever necessary, professional standards or applicable building codes are cited (for reference) and cost estimates are given so you have a general idea of the potential cost to repair any items we note.  You also receive a CD-ROM and online access to your report, to share your experience with distant friends and family.

Always on the Case

Our service only begins with your inspection. Post-inspection care includes FREE follow up inspections and our FREE, 24 hour Homeowner Hotline to answer questions for as long as you own your home.
