Sherlock Home Inspections, a Southwest Florida based company, Chosen to Inspect the Pentagon.

Online, April 1, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Apr 1, 2010 - Owner and the Senior Inspector of Sherlock Home Inspections are busy packing their gear and preparing for their biggest job ever. They leave tomorrow for 1400 Defense Pentagon, Washington DC 20301.

Sherlock Home Inspections was among millions of companies reviewed by the Joint Chiefs. The Southwest Florida based company was originally nominated by Admiral Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, several months ago, and finally chosen today by Robert Gates, United States Secretary of Defense, to conduct an inspection of the Pentagon.

Concern for the health and well-being of Pentagon workers prompted the request from the Department of Health. Several Pentagon workers have complained of respiratory discomfort, eye irritations, nose bleeds, headaches, etc. While not common in the DC area, these are all signs of Chinese Drywall.

Additionally, Pentagon workers have experienced runny noses, itchy-watery eyes, coughing, sneezing, throat irritation, headaches, decreased attention span, difficulty in concentration, and dizziness. Some even reported chronic conditions such as sinusitis and asthma. Much like Sherlock Home Inspections' catch phrase "It is a capital mistake to theorize before you have all
the evidence," obviously conclusions cannot be drawn from symptoms alone, but mold, mildew, and fungi seem to be the most probable culprits.

Finally, questions have recently been raised about the water at the Pentagon and weather it is safe for human consumption. Sherlock Home Inspections will take water samples for two separate tests. The first will test for bacteria, nitrates, lead, iron, hardness, pH, sulfate, & total dissolved solids (TDS). The second water test will look for coliform which is a micro biological indicator of harmful pathogens.

Did you catch the date? Yes, this is an April Fools Press Release. However, Sherlock Home Inspections would like to announce a 10% DISCOUNT on our Air & Water Quality Combo Inspection for all military veterans, government employees, and community service personnel in SW Florida throughout the month of April.
