Sherlock Home Inspections goes above and beyond industry standards.
There are several aspects and components of a home that inspectors are neither required to nor restricted from inspecting. WE INSPECT THOSE AREAS

• Appliances

• Pool, Pool Deck, Pool Enclosure, Pool Equipment
• Seawall, Dock, Boat Lift
• Well Equipment
• Cosmetic or Aesthetic Concerns
There are also several procedures of a home inspection and tools for inspecting that inspectors are neither required to nor restricted from completing / using. WE CONDUCT THOSE PROCEDURES & USE THOSE TOOLS
Examples:
• Inspect the Roof from the Rooftop
• Climb Ladders
• Enter Attics and Crawl Spaces
• Move Obstructions
• Operate Electrical GFI’s & Breakers
• Manipulate Plumbing Shut Off Valves
• Open the Main Electrical Panel
• Open the Air Handler
• Use Inspection Tools - Outlet /GFI Testers, Electrical Meters, Laser Thermometers, Moisture Meters, etc.
Insurance Inspections:
Many inspectors will charge you for an inspection even if it doesn’t benefit you. WE DON’T DO THAT!
If the home won’t pass a 4 Point Insurance Inspection, or a Wind Mitigation Inspection isn’t going to save you money, then we’ll explain why & skip that inspection, rather than charging you for an inspection that isn’t going to do you any good.
