I'm glad to see all you buyers were elated with the services Sherwood gave you guys. However, little do you know, is they fail home inspections for one reason and one reason only...to create more business from you. I'd be curious to know how many of you did multiple inspections with this company during your house hunting experience? That many of the failed items were in fact not failed and they were shooting from the hip without verifying?

Terrible experience. After we closed on our house we called to get our oil tank filled to our surprise the tank needed to be replaced we had Sherwoods complete our home inspection and in the report they didnt mentioned any issue with the tank. So I called and spoke with Dave Sherwood and he told me we didn't pay for an oil tank inspection. And Insisted we get a second opinion from a company he recommended who also said the tank needed to be replaced. We then got an email from John Sheehan who stated they believe its leaking ... read more

Absolutely horrible. Paid more money than other companies thinking you get what you pay for but not in this case. Every single "problem" they wrote in the report "beyond this inspectors scope to assess, get a certified (electrician, plumber, chimney, etc) to conduct inspection" So what did we pay for? Then we did get the "certified" inspectors and each found $2,000-$10,000 worth of fixes... AFTER we closed. But had the Sherwood inspector actually written the truth, we probably never would have bought the house. Also, paid... read more

At time of inspection, inspector gave incorrect phone number for credit card payment and so although I gave credit card information was given over the phone, payment was not received by the office. Inspector denied any knowledge of that.

It must be 0 ratings.Not properly inspected. After inspection we buy home and there were many faults in home. Gutter, roof, attic, bellow the porch not checked. I spend more than 20k but house still need more work then it's needed. I wouldn't recomended to other. Choose other than Sherwook Inspection Service.

I thought I had a positive experience with this inspection service, but I realized I had been set up. The service person had me do a review immediately after inspection and I wouldn't be any wiser that a few months later I would find multiple gas leaks, 2 HVAC issues and not even one working smoke detector or fire alarm. This place is trash, I would never recommend. I also called the office and the receptionist lied saying a manager would call me back, and never did! This is a scam!

The inspection performed by Sherwood Inspection Services on August 1, 2018 was both dissatisfying and uncomfortable. Prior to their inspection, I had already had a licensed contractor out to inspect the home for mold after viewing mold on the bedroom ceiling during a walk-through. This contractor determined the cause was actively leaking water lines coming off the A/C air handler in the attic, soaking the insulation and the sheet-rock. I made Sherwood's inspector aware prior to their inspection and the need for them to co... read more

I flipped a house and used Sherwood for the inspection before purchasing the property. I was told there was minor termite damage to the floor joists in the crawl space and that it was not a big deal. We did some minor repairs to it and moved on. Once the rehab was completed my buyer also used Sherwood for the inspection and their inspector told them that the termite damage was extensive and needed to be addressed. We lost the buyer over this. I don't understand how two inspectors from the same company gave such conflicting r... read more

This company is terrible. Sure-would have picked another inspection company if I could have a do over. Lousy customer service, horrible communication, and incomplete inspection. Stay away! 

Business response:

Chris, I am glad you told us about your experience, in order for me to make this right, please let me know the address of the inspection. As far as I can see I have no Chris S as a client. This is not like our company and our inspector. We give a 200 % satisfaction guarantee, so at the end of the inspection if you were disappointed we would have pay for another inspector to come out and do that inspection that is how sure we are that you will be completely satisfied. This does not add up, so please reach out to me at 203-73... read more
