The inspector did a very thorough and professional inspection, and sent a report. That is very easy to understand. I am very glad I had the home inspected before purchase, because he discovered many things we had overlooked well worth the money. read more

Milind A. came by to do a home inspection for us (we are renters, considering buying our property) and I cannot speak highly enough of his work! He was kind, professional, and EXTREMELY thorough--he went above and beyond to hear our concerns and address all of our questions. If we ever move to a different home, we'll be sure to request his services again! read more

Wow! If 6 stars were possible this is the first review that I'd give it! Thorough, precise in their descriptions, honest in their assessments, did not confuse requirements with suggestions, and were very accommodating to us while we accompanied Joe on the home inspection! He encouraged questions and gave us straight answers. Use these folks for your next home inspection! Update: because of how thorough their inspection was we found a rather significant issue in the sewer and because of it we did not continue in the buying process of that home. BULLET DODGED because of this company! THANK YOU!!! read more

We chose Structure Tech for our Minneapolis Truth in Sale of Housing inspection and it went great. The inspector, Milind, did a great job and provided us the required report shortly after he completed the inspection. The whole process from scheduling to the inspection itself was efficient and easy. Thanks! read more

I have to say that I'm glad my agent recommended Structure Tech. My agent was Bryan Scholtes and I he was very knowledgeable and thorough. He took the time to explain the process and his finds. He also went the extra mile and if I have any additional questions I was able to call him directly. No waiting on hold to get transfer to him or another agent. This was a diamond service. The report that Structure provides is very detailed. You receive a report via email and you can also visit the online portal to access the report as well. I highly recommend the company for your inspection needs. read more

Scott was great! Super friendly, on time, great communicator and very informative. All we could've asked for from this service. Definitely recommend for those looking for a speedy inspection that you feel good about. read more

I received Structure Tech's name from another agent. I am so glad my client used them! Dustin was great. He was thorough, explained what he was going to do, as he found things he was going to put in the report, and how the report would be formatted. He was very personable and professional. I highly recommend Dustin and Structure Tech, and will be recommending them to all my clients. read more

I wasn't sure if we really needed to have an inspection on new construction. Our builder is very respected and a fantastic local company which I believe do the best they can. When working with multiple contractors on many homes, they can only check so many things so we decided that we should hire an inspector. We were referred to Structure Tech. Without a doubt a smart decision. Matt was early and very enthusiastic. He throughly went through the entire house inside and out. Matt's communication with us throughout the entire process was so thorough and in depth. He spotted several minor as well as major issues that I never would have even known. With his report in hand, our builder agreed without hesitation to correct all of the items that need to be fixed. The cost of the inspection paid for itself tenfold. I can't recommend this company enough. Matt was GREAT! You will not regret it. read more

Only picked them based on their yelp scores and so glad I did. We were able to schedule an inspection quickly. I'm not sure if you're able to request certain inspectors and I'm sure they are all great, but we couldn't be happier with Bryan. He was everything you'd want in a home inspector...thorough, patient, friendly, knowledgeable, and more. He took his time with the inspection and basically gave us the play by play the entire time. He also answered the million questions we had in a relevant way for us. The inspection report is perfect. It not only lays out all the homes issues, but also classifies them in a way that's actionable by the homeowner. It's going to be a great checklist of things we need to do in the future in a way that prioritizes immediate safety concerns vs long term issues, as well as everything in between. Will definitely recommend these guys to our friends moving forward! read more

I would absolutely recommend Structure Tech, they are very thorough. I have hired them twice as I am looking to purchase a home. I am hoping I won't need a third inspection but if I do, it's a no brainer as to who I am calling. Very thorough, full report afterwards, quick turnaround. They meet with you at the last hour of the inspection window to go over what they found, followed up with a very detailed report with suggestions on how to remedy any issue. read more

Jim Tobias went above and beyond. He was very thorough, listened and addressed all of our questions, pointed out little things most inspectors might pass on but he'd fix in his home, and we felt he truly had our best interests in mind. Our real estate agent said they use Structure Tech because they go above and beyond, and we could not agree more. read more

Best-in-class. Those are the first words to come to mind when I talk about Structure Tech. I first heard about them through my sister-in-law, who employed Structure Tech for their home purchase about a year ago. After seeing rave reviews of Structure Tech here on Yelp and on Google Reviews, I knew this was the firm to work with. It may sound like one of my relatives works there, but really, I have zero connection to the company. I just know a good thing when I see it and experience it. Structure Tech is not trying to be the lowest cost player in the market. But really, if you're buying such a huge asset, do you want to skimp on a bare-bones inspection, just so you can save $100? Structure Tech is currently charging about $540 (as of summer 2014), and they are worth every penny. Because they are best-in-class, make sure to schedule your home inspection with them the very minute after your purchase agreement is signed, because they are currently booked out about 3-5 days for home inspections. Since you have a limited window of time with which to complete your inspection, you should do your best to schedule with Structure Tech as quickly as possible. With the heating-up real estate market we are experiencing, home buyers are often forced to make snap judgments about whether to make an offer on a home. With so little due diligence on the front-end (e.g. we spent about 45 minutes at a showing in Eden Prairie, then placed an offer later that night), your home inspection is absolutely critical, for it's the time when every lump and wart of your property will be brought into the light. You can trust Structure Tech to dive into every nook and cranny of your home-to-be. For my recent inspection by George at ST, I was consistently amazed at the depth of his poking, prodding, and analyzing every aspect of the home we are under contract to by. The inspection took about 3.5 hours. As I understand it, their competitors in our market only take about 2 hours for an inspection. My realtor came about an hour through the inspection, thinking he would only be present for the final hour of the inspection. Well, seeing that things were going long, I could tell he was unaccustomed to such a thorough inspection. This was encouraging to me. George took dozens of photos throughout his inspection, many of which were included in the final 27-page report that was delivered as a PDF via email to me late in the evening on the same day of the inspection. Structure Tech encourages home buyers to attend the inspection, and I can see why. George took plenty of time to explain what he was checking out, what he was finding, and also potential solutions to troublesome areas of the inspection. Plus, he was funny and easy to get along with. It was obvious he is passionate about being a home inspector, so I knew he wasn't just going through the motions. Reuben Saltzman (co-owner with Neil Saltzman, who bought the business in 1997), writes an excellent blog at the Structure Tech website, and his work has also appeared at The Star Tribune. Reuben's insights are invaluable, and I plan to return to his work in the future, as it will help me handle some of the maintenance and repairs on my home. ST's inspection report has loaded me up with plenty of home projects for the months and years to come. I like knowing about every potential problem with my home, because with that knowledge, I am ready to get my home in tip-top shape. Thanks George, and thanks Structure Tech. read more

Decided to spend the extra money on the highest reviewed home inspector I could find. I am glad I spent the extra money. I was very pleased with the quality of the report (which includes high res images) and the details about all findings. I was able to make a much more informed decision about the home I am purchasing, and would recommend structure tech to anyone. read more

George Ury provided fantastic advice regarding humidity/ventilation/insulation problems with our bonus room. He also noticed some maintenance issues in our utility room that need to be addressed. This is the 2nd time George has helped us and his expertise is exceptional. read more

This company was very quick to respond (I contacted them on a Sunday). They had great availability (were able to get them scheduled for Tuesday!), the inspection tech call me Monday to introduce himself, answer any questions I had, & was extremely polite & helpful!! The inspection report was in my email within a couple hours post inspection & was very thorough!! I was unable to attend so he went over everything with my realtor & was even a great sport about her recording him! I would definitely recommend this company!! My inspection tech was Eric - as stated above, he was great to work with!! read more

We hired Structure Tech to inspect a condo prior to closing. We specifically mentioned that we needed an inspection of the windows since we were aware that several units in the building experienced failure of the window seals. The inspector found a few minor issues. He mentioned that the paint was chipped in a couple spots on a window frame, and one of the windows was not fully opening, but otherwise no issues were found. We closed and moved in less than two months after the inspection. Soon after we moved in it became very apparent that most of the windows have failed. We were forced to replace 23 windows. I contacted Structure Tech and their argument was that based on whatever home inspection standards they are bound to, they are not responsible for window inspection. I did not bother to read the standards - my fault, but I believe that ethically they should have told me they would not inspect the windows when I specifically asked them to do so. I believe this company is not trustworthy and one should be cautious of their findings and limitation of the scope of their work. Disclaimer: they offered to reimburse me the cost of the inspection but I chose not to accept their offer. read more

Was referred to Scott Mahley (Structure Tech) by my realtor in whom I have 100% confidence and I was not disappointed. All of our contacts were business like,, friendly and very professional. Scott did what he said he would do, when he said he would do it. He was respectful of our property and looked for deficiencies that really matter. He found four that we both felt needed correction while our home was under its 1-year "top to bottom" warranty. Structure Tech's reports are easy to understand and grade findings based on significance. The report (via internet website) made it easy to pick out what you intend to request be fixed and then creat the repair list which can be printed or sent via email directly to a builder, owner or realtor. Scott Mahley exceeded our expectations and have already referred one of our neighbors whose 11-month warranty expires in May (2023) read more

The entire process from setting up the inspection to receiving a final inspection report was easy peasy. Structure Tech (and DJ!) are the real deal. They made setting the appointment east, showed up on time, were SO VERY THOROUGH in their inspection and delivered their findings as promised within the time period shared. DJ took the sting out of any surprises and covered every inch of the property. We're big fans. read more

They did an excellent job. I would use them again in a heart beat.

My pre-purchase home inspection by Ed Draper with Structure Tech was very complete. He found an ungrounded electrical outlet, ceiling tiles made with materials that would be toxic if burned. As well, a sewer line inspection was completed. My father admitted this was the most complete inspection he has ever seen. An ordinary home inspection may be good enough to find major problems, but the Structure Tech home inspection can assist you as a new home-owner of things to keep up with to properly maintain your home. In fact, I would recommend a Structure Tech home inspection for anyone who owns an older home as you may find things that need to be repaired. read more

We had Liz come do an inspection on a house we are planning to purchase. She was extremely thorough and explained everything in terms I could understand. She gave out suggestions based on her professional and personal experience. She got us our report within 24 hours and provided a list of recommended providers to use to fix the issues. I e-mailed her afterwards asking for some advice and she responded quickly with details. I highly recommend Structure Tech if you are looking to purchase a house. read more

My wife and I are about to be first-time homeowners. Structure Tech was recommended by our real estate agent. In retrospect, I wish I'd gotten quotes and compared options first; Structure Tech is definitely not inexpensive. BUT, when it was all said and done I was really impressed by the service. Communication throughout was thorough, and our inspector -- Wayne -- was a wonderful man who clearly enjoyed his work and was very gracious in explaining things about the home we didn't know or understand before. For a first-time home inspection, we were very pleased and relieved at how smoothly it went. I'd personally still recommend price shopping first, but I can't speak highly enough of Structure Tech! read more

I had Liz do my house inspection, and she was phenomenal! She was VERY thorough! What I appreciated the most, is how she reached out before the inspection and asked if I had any concerns that i wanted addressed. I will definitely use Structure Tech again and I highly recommend Liz! read more

We worked with Structure Tech for our home inspection on our first home purchase and couldn't have been happier! Nick did a thorough inspection of the home and even explained things to us as he went. This helped us to confidently make a decision to purchase our first home! Thanks!! we highly recommend Structure Tech! read more

Wonderful experience with Structure Tech. Came highly recommended from my realtor and I now know why. Our inspector was very thorough and explained the issues he noticed and provided insights as to potential fixes/ballpark costs. The report was incredibly detailed and provided pictures to reference. Highly recommend anyone purchasing a home use Structure Tech. read more

As first time homebuyers, the pressure of making this monumental decision is a huge stress. Thankfully, we realized we had our best advocate in Eric Houseman. Eric welcomed us into our prospective home with a smile, and encouraged us to walk around and through the house with him. He shared the method behind the madness: which rooms we would go in, and in which order, why the big crack we saw was actually the last of our worries because it was patched correctly, but the little dent on our siding could mean more severe hail damage in other spots. I firmly believe this experience was the most worthwhile educational experience we've had along our journey to find the perfect home, and that is all thanks to Eric and Structure Tech. 6 stars, 11/10, would recommend and will use again. read more

We hired Structure Tech for an inspection for a house we were considering. Bryce was professional, very thorough, explained everything to our satisfaction and made himself available for any and all further questions. He's also the nicest guy on the planet, so helps make things go smoothly. read more

We recently had an inspection and chose Structure Tech based on a suggestion. The inspect was out of this world exceptional. He was prompt, he asked our comfort level re:masks or non masks, he was exceptionally thorough and made sure we had personal conversations before our report was generated. It was really great to see a professional at work! read more

My realtor, who is also a home remodeler, recommended Neil and Structure Tech for my first home inspection. Knowing that an experienced builder and remodeler wanted to wait specifically for his availability was a good sign from the start. Neil actually brought out a new member of their team to be a part of the inspection. It was clear that the new hire was a veteran in building inspection work and knew his stuff already. They weren't just hiring someone new to the job. What I was most impressed with was they both walked me through the different issues they found, how serious they were, and what options I had to fix them. They were very thorough with their work and did a great job of educating as a part of the process. This is my first home purchase, so it was reassuring to have a thorough inspection, friendly advice and not someone who scoffs at your questions or lack of knowledge about certain subjects. Lastly, their report is a detailed, but easy to follow summary of the inspection. It calls out things that need to be addressed immediately, things that can go for a little while without an immediate fix and even comes with links for ways to fix them. I received the report the same night of my inspection and was able to make a quick decision about my purchase. Overall great work. read more

Okay inspection. Good price and very prompt response from schedulers. Thorough inspection

Just had Bryan Scholtes inspect our new home. What a fantastic experience for all involved. When he arrived the owners were unexpectedly home and he handled the situation with grace! Aside from being extremely professional and clearly an expert in the field of home inspections he was very genuine and honest. I appreciate that. read more

I hired Structure Tech because I saw that they had good reviews online and wanted to have peace of mind on my approved purchase agreement on a studio condo. The price of my inspection was $300 which was a reasonable price. Reuben carried out my inspection. He was friendly, punctual and, as other reviewers had mentioned elsewhere, provided explanations that I could understand about the plumbing/electrical as he did the inspection and photographed the unit. The report that he sent over on the same day was easy to read, well documented and included pictures and images to explain possible issues. Milind, the person that arranged my inspection, was also very friendly and accommodating to my needs. I would definitely work with them again. read more

I don't have a ton of practical experience with this stuff but these guys came highly recommended based on the owner Reuben's TV appearances. When I researched them they have a 5 out 5 rating on Google with over 100 reviews. That is insane. They're not going to be the cheapest option but you get what you pay for and these guys are top notch. I was very impressed with my tech George and super nice guy. I also really like that they're technologically advanced. You can do everything online and automated. And they have links right to the reviews, which is very smart. Keep up the great work fellas and I would highly recommend them if you're in the market! read more

We hired Structure Tech (specifically Duane) on the recommendation of our realtor and were extremely satisfied. Duane was extremely thorough and a great overall person. He encouraged us to follow him around during his inspection and ask him questions about what he saw and our overall concerns for the house. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave us the power to understand the type of house we were buying prior to purchasing. There were a couple of issues that we were worried about when he brought them up, but when he explained them in detail and the solutions, Duane made us feel comfortable with what was going on in the bones of the house. The fact that Duane knew what problems were in the house AND was able to give us solutions to them enabled us to trust his expertise and knowledge. I HIGHLY recommend using Duane for your home inspections and will be relying on him and Structure Tech from this point on! A++ read more

We had Patrick Brennan as our home inspector. He was so incredibly thorough that it put me at ease on the unknowns in our potential new home. He spent the entire afternoon with us answering every little question we had. He helped with my questions as dumb as a light switch making a funny noise in the wall to things as important as foundation and structural issues with great professionalism. He was thorough in processing a situation and quick to explain what it meant for me as a homeowner. I highly recommend you call Structure Tech if you are in need of their service, the whole process was stellar from start to finish, including how much they charged. It was the best money we could have possibly spent during this very expensive process of buying a home. read more

This was or second home inspection with Structure Tech and they were superb! Milind was extremely thorough and careful and took the time to explain everything he did. My husband and I actually learned a lot from the experience. All of the technicians that they sent out were equally as professional and thorough. We would absolutely recommend and use Structure Tech again. read more

I was extremely impressed by the level of expertise and detail that this team provided. They were knowledgeable about all of the items they came across during the inspection and provided solutions. They also provided a list of businesses that we should contact to fix some of the issues that came up. The report was thorough and digital making it easy to reference. read more

The purchase agreement our buyer signed with this company said that things would be restored to the condition prior to the test. This is not what happened. We had 162 holes drilled into our home and they were partially filled with substandard caulk that does not come close to matching the color of the house. If I could upload photos of the destruction this company did to our home I would, but I can't here. Buyer beware this company is not doing quality work!!!! read more

Request Neil Saltzman! All of the frustration trying to get the inspection scheduled was worth it. Try to be patient with scheduling, you will be rewarded for your efforts. Neil came out to do my Buyers Inspection and was exactly what I was looking for. Neil was thorough, professional and extremely helpful. He was happy to answer my multitude of questions and clearly explained the issues he came across. The inspection report was clear, detailed and promptly delivered. Neil does great and efficient work. The online report delivery and payment method was very convenient, I am happy I chose them for my inspection. read more

Great work, helpful explanations, and very responsive. I would gladly use them again. Highly recommended.
