Structure Tech Home Inspections

Everything went very well. Wayne was able to taik and teach and work at the same time. (see above space for details) He did not shy away from questions or difficult conditions. I was very impressed with the hands on experience and the reports.He did use several different tech devices for accurate diagnosis. He kept a positive attitude the entire time and remained focused on the task while explaining what was going on and why. Also,setting up the appointment via phone, email confirmations and quick response time to my questions made me feel prioritized and anxiety free..Even the initial online contract was easy to read and sign.

Fabulously. Bill Oelrich was the assigned inspector. He thoroughly reviewed the house from top to bottom and gave me a lot of helpful information not only on the specific subjects that he thought needed work but also information on what seemed to be particularly well done and on regular maintenance items to keep in mind. His write-up of the inspection with pictures is an excellent guide to the house for purchase purposes but also for living in the property. The inspection was worth every penny I paid for it. I would use this company and inspector again. (They also provided radon testing services, not included in the price below.)

George Ury did the inspection. He was with us for nearly 4 hours. He would stop and fully explain anything we asked a question on; he helped us understand the hazards and the risks in the home. Without George, we may have purchased a home that had more repairs needed to become safe then we had money for. We explained to George that we needed a lot of detail so we could go back to the estate trustee and explain the need to renegotiate the price of the home, if the deal was to go through. George provided a 42 page detailed report with plenty of clear explanations and pictures.

Awesome! The inspector, Milind, spent a lot of time trying to find the cause, and eventually found that it was due to condensation in the attic. There was a little confusion about what the inspection would cover. I misunderstood, but they took the time to clarify what the inspection covered. They were very good at communicating with me and making sure my needs were met. Due to a small misunderstanding,Milind actually came back a second time at no charge to make it right.He was very professional, respectful, and kind, and he really took the time to be very thorough with his inspection. They even gave me a complimentary written report, in order to help me understand the scope of the findings, and to use as a future reference.

I would use them again in future. They're very thorough in their inspection and present the inspection itself in a very detailed and thorough document, which makes it easier for people who don't fully understand everything that they're talking about to understand everything. I thought they did a very good job.

This is the second time I have used Structure Tech - first they did my pre-sale inspection (required by the city of Bloomington) when I put my home on the market. Then, more recently, they inspected the home I am buying. In both cases they had very quick response times, were prompt and thorough doing the work, and showed great respect for us and for the homes. The reports they provided following the inspection were detailed and clear.

George inspected our new home and was incredible! I have referred several people to this company because they take their time and their final product gives you visual aids and instructions on what needs to be corrected. George allowed me to follow him throughout the house and explained in detail what he was seeing and what needs to be corrected, eventually or immediately. He also had a great sense of humor. I've had an inspection on a house before with some other company and got 2-4 pages of text, no pictures, and several things were missed. Structure Tech is top notch and why not pay a little more and REALLY know what your house needs and how it functions?!?!? Its money well spent - surprised other reviews rated them with a B on Price, this is a service you don't want to be cheap about!!!

The home inspection we had done last week was conducted by Milind and I was present for the entirety of it. He was professional, courteous, patient, knowledgeable, and thorough during the entire time he inspected this house. He began by outlining the order in which he would go through the house and he took my questions and concerns and followed up by taking a closer look at those issues. What I was most impressed with was Milind's attitude remaining at a constant level of diligence and care as he covered the scope of the house from beginning to end. Up until the last moment before I left the house, at the end of several hours of inspection, Milind maintained the same courteous demeanor and even invited us to reach him later for questions after we receive his report. I call this "exceptional service"! The report was detailed with photos attached for better clarity on the information. Because of how thorough this inspection and its report was, I was able to have confidence that there were likely no major issues that were over-looked. I did wind up calling Milind about a few concerns and with a gracious attitude, he answered my questions to my satisfaction. Thank you Milind, for your excellent work. We appreciate your skills, knowledge, and kind spirit very much! You are definitely an asset to Structure Tech and help to give the business a great name. Thank you Structure Tech, for the training you provide to your inspectors. We can definitely recommend you guys to our friends!

I filled out their online form to request a home inspection on Friday, May 15. I go an email that day that they had received my information and would be in touch shortly. No word on Monday, so I called in on Tuesday - they said they did not get my request and they don't have any availability until after my 5 day window for inspection. I don't have any reason to disbelieve that their tech failed, but it is very frustrating to have researched carefully (on Angie's list and other sources) pick a place, filled out information in their preferred way online only to be told that my information was lost in cyberspace and I am just out of luck. Since it was their tech that failed, maybe they could have gone the extra mile to help out? No, no extra mile. They are probably good at what they do, but don't rely on their email messages and don't expect them to step up if their technology / email fails.

I have used this company twice, once in Feb/March timeframe and once April 1st. The first inspector in February was not a good fit. When we arrived he kept working and did not come and introduce himself, once he was finally done with setting up the randon machine, he immediately insulted me by saying "I bet you already have all the colors picked out and the decorations." I tried to brush this off, to me that was a little sexist. However, when talking to the inspector he was not actively listening, was defensive when I told him my main concerns about the house, seems to be water damage in one of the rooms, window seals were broken, the siding had some holes, and there were huge ice dams. He continued to talk in circles about my concerns saying how he would gather all the information during the inspection. However, in the report he never noted any pictures etc of my main concerns (water damage to ceiling, ice dams etc). I was very hesitant to use them again, but they had received such HIGH marks on Angies list. Before scheduled I specifically asked not to have the same inspector, and to have someone senior handle our inspection. Thankfuly our new inspector was amazing! My husband was very impressed with his knowledge, personality was great, very helpful, and answered my laundry list of questions and concerns. He definitely put my nerves at ease. I would highly recommend him! Overall my score is a mix of both experiences that I have had with StructureTech.

We have worked with Structure Tech Inspectors twice in 2 months for different houses. Both times they were phenomenal, and we had a different inspector for each house. They are extremely responsive, and very thorough. I will go to them again without hesitation!

George did my inspection and he was on time (early actually), very knowledgable and very professional. I followed him around as he did the inspection and he did a great running commentary on what he was finding, taking the time to explain some items to me in greater detail. He documented everything extensively with photos. He spent four hours plus on the inspection, finished a little after 5 pm and I had a very detailed report emailed to me by 6:30 am the next morning! Clearly the company understands that home buyers can be in time critical situation if they made a purchase offer contingent on home inspection. I gave the price a 'B' because it was a little more than some other companies, but I feel the slight additional cost was well worth it for the quality of service provided. If I do decide to go ahead with the purchase I now have a detailed blueprint of what work I need to do on the place in order to bring everything up to good condition.

Wayne did a home inspection, infrared & radon test for us on a new home purchase. This was the second time we have had Wayne do an inspection and he help us avoid a home with several problems earlier this year. He is fantastic to work with as he explains what he is doing and what he is looking for every step of the way to help give you an idea of where things are at and what to be watching for when that home becomes your home. I plan to use him if I am ever in need again in the future and will recommend him to anyone that is needing a home inspection in the future.

First off, the scheduling process was very efficient. I used the online scheduler and it was very easy. A confirmation came a few hours later and we were all set up. The day before the inspection, they sent a reminder message, which was a nice touch. The day of our inspection, Nick was our inspector and he did a very thorough job both inside and out. He was on time and was very personable and patient. He answered all of our questions, including giving us tips on how to fix some of the small issues ourselves. The report was provided the same day and it was comprehensive. I would use them again in a minute.

Nick arrived on time with John, the radon specialist, at the home we were interested in buying. Both Nick and John were courteous, funny and easy to talk to. It was one of those bitter cold mornings so I did not join Nick on his outside examination but he came back in periodically to explain what he was seeing and showed me images of what he was talking about. One of the things I find is that people occasionally dumb things down when explaining issues or concerns to me. Nick did not do that. He explained things simply but with some level of technical detail to me and then later to my husband. The language he used with both of us was similar. Nick also gave us feedback on the remodeling we were pursuing and how best to accomplish things to improve the house. John likewise explained the tests he would perform and discussed the benefits of do-it-yourself kits versus over-time radon testing. His information was not biased (I have some knowledge of indoor air quality testing so I was aware of the benefits of each method of testing) and I appreciated the honesty. The reports were within our hands within 4 hours of completing the inspection and within 1 hour of radon test completion. I would highly recommend their team to anyone.

Scheduling was easy and fast. Nick, the inspector who did the work, did an excellent job. He was as on time, detailed and observant as you would want any inspector to be. But he went above and beyond by also seeking out hidden issues, being great at explaining what he saw to us lay people, providing nuanced recommendations, and being friendly and patient throughout. I'd recommend him in a heartbeat.

Milind is an exceptionally professional inspector. He answered any questions we had. He was especially knowledgable about the electrical panel manufacturer and the need for a Radon mitigation system. Also, concerning GFCI outlets in required areas. Did a great job of providing photos showing problems and offering detailed reasons why corrections have to be made to due safety concerns.

Structure Tech completed our home inspection today and they did a fabulous job! Not to mention we were able to schedule the inspection within 24 hours of the request. We had Milind perform the inspection and he was wonderful to work with. Arrived on time, was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the process. He took his time and answered all of the questions we had so that it was understandable from a common mans perspective. I would highly recommend Milind and the Structure Tech inspectors to any home buyer - well worth your money!

The entire inspection process went smoothly. Communication from the company was fantastic. I applied for an estimate on their website and received a prompt response with adequate return information and began inquiry for scheduling. Lisa replied even to a brief message saying that I needed to postpone until paperwork was finalized. Shortly after, I scheduled an appointment which was an absolute breeze. Payment afterward (credit card) was fine as well. I do have to place a B in punctuality, as the inspector (George Ury) was about half an hour late. This however did not minimize any time spent on the inspection- this was not an exceptionally large property in question. I understood this to be a traffic issue as my realtor also experienced. George contacted me shortly before the appointment time regarding this, which I consider completely reasonable. This would absolutely NOT deter me from using the company again as I am pleased with the results as well as the adequate communication regarding the delay. George was thorough and was very personable. He was great with both informing about tests and his points of interest, as well as items he considered problems plus severity of issues and future items to keep in mind. He sent a report early the next morning. I would be pleased to use Structure Tech again.

While I have no plans on selling my house, I have several improvements, new doors/windows, flooring, countertops, and the like in mind. Since I have been in my home for more than 20 years and inspections have changes dramatically since that time, I thought it would be great to have an independent person assist me in prioritizing tasks. The inspection was an eye opening and there was good news bad news. Good news, George was amazing and his four hours uncovered issues that I didn't realized I had. Bad news, George found water damage and structural issues that I was unaware of, in additional to smaller (it's all relative) problems like some outlets not installed correctly and my vents are vented to nowhere. I only wish there was this type of service available decades ago. I would not buy a house or remodel a house without hiring Structure Tech. Best money I have ever spent, just 20+ years too late.

Knowledgable and friendly inspector named Milind. Did a great job of both completing the inspection and explaining the results.

Thorough inspection and explanation. Took photos to help explain and illustrate the faults found on the inspection. As a result of the inspection, we became aware of problems on the home. We cancelled our purchase agreement based on the inspection. The cost of the inspection was small compared to the over $20,000.00 in problems/repair needs the inspector found

Structure Tech was suggested to us by some friends we trust. We called and had them come out for an inspection during the search for our first home. We were under contract on the home and found a large number of expensive repairs that would be required within the next few years. It was enough information for us to exit the contract and save the headache. The money was extremely well spent as you can imagine. We called Structure Tech back a few weeks later and requested the same inspector help us with the home that we eventually bought. The inspector spent over 5 hours with us discussing details during the inspection, documenting EVERYTHING with photos and tons of detail. The reports that we received on both homes were basically prioritized lists of how and when to perform repairs to keep the houses operating in top condition. I say again...money well spent.

They seemed very good and very knowledgeable. There are no bad sides to the house so everything he said has been accurate.

Very thorough. Uncovered lots of issues that we would not have caught. Highly recommend.
