Sherlock Home Inspections

Why should I have a home inspection?

Before buying a home, you need to have peace of mind that the investment you’re about to make is a good one. At face value, it’s difficult to know whether or not certain issues exist with the home you’re interested in. Unfortunately, sellers are not always upfront with these problems or are unaware that they even exist. This is where we come in.

What is radon?

Radon is a radioactive gas that is very dangerous to breathe in. It is estimated that over 20,000 lung cancer deaths in a year are caused by radon exposure. The scary thing about this deadly gas is that it has no odor or smell and you cannot taste it. However, the high quality equipment we use can spot it easily and we specialize in detecting this toxic substance. For more information, please contact us anytime.

How much will it cost?

Along with our top-of-the-line equipment, certified professionals, and reliable service, we also pride ourselves in being able to provide our clients with the best value around the Oregon area. Unlike other inspectors, we have available bundle options that will save you time and money.

What if the report reveals problems?

Our inspectors take great care in keeping you well informed if there are any problems that arise. If there are any red flags, it doesn’t necessarily mean you should not buy. The key is to know this information in advance to help you make the right decision. In some cases, the seller may cover the cost to make the necessary repairs.
