UPDATE BASED ON TEK’s REPLY:

Instead of taking accountability or offering real solutions, TEK has chosen to hide behind its contract and lecture me on what a home inspection is — as if that excuses poor service and missed issues.

What’s worse is that TEKs response ignores the real problem: they wasted my time and energy with an excessive, pointless fact-finding exercise after my complaint — asking me for details that should have been in their records or were irrelevant to my concerns. This process was not about resolution — it was about deflecting responsibility and running me in circles.

I had no obligation to jump through hoops just to get basic accountability or acknowledgment of the legitimate issues I raised.

That is not professionalism. That is poor customer service, plain and simple.

Future customers, take note: when problems arise, you will likely be met with finger-pointing, boilerplate explanations, and unnecessary burdens — not support or solutions.

I hope this review helps others make an informed decision before hiring this company.

***ORIGINAL Review of TEK Inspections – Inspector Brett Neumark
Inspection Date: March 27, 2025

We are deeply disappointed with the level of service provided by TEK Inspections and inspector Brett Neumark. Our experience was far from the peace of mind promised by the company’s slogan, and the consequences of the oversights during our inspection have been costly, frustrating, and stressful.

1. Incomplete Attic Inspection
Mr. Neumark failed to inspect the attic entirely because the entrance was located above the washer and dryer in the laundry room. Although the current homeowners gave full consent to move the units—an easy task requiring no more than shifting them five inches—Mr. Neumark refused. Our realtor ultimately moved them without issue, but only after we insisted that the attic be inspected. Even then, the inspector was visibly annoyed that we requested he complete the job.

2. Rodent Infestation Overlooked
Despite noting droppings in the garage, Mr. Neumark inaccurately concluded they were old and that there was no active infestation. Within 24 hours of moving in, we discovered a live family of mice in the garage. Additionally, there were mouse droppings in the attic—completely omitted from his report—confirming an active and ongoing rodent problem that should not have been missed.

3. Bathtub Leak Ignored
The secondary bathroom’s bathtub leaked significantly the first time we used it, causing water damage to the floor. The inspector claimed he could not properly assess it for fear of damaging the facade. However, upon closer inspection, we found it was secured by only six easily removable screws. It took us less than a minute to confirm the leak ourselves. This lack of effort was inexcusable.

4. Structural Oversight
A large, gaping hole—about the size of a football—was left unnoticed under the eaves near the back patio door. Nesting birds, feathers, and debris made it clear this had been an ongoing issue, yet it was not mentioned in the report. This type of structural vulnerability should have been immediately flagged by any qualified inspector.

5. Incorrect and Costly Radon Advice
We were incorrectly advised that installing a vapor barrier in our crawl space would resolve elevated radon levels. Based on this recommendation, we paid $1,200 to a local pest control company—only to find out it did nothing to fix the issue. A professional radon specialist later explained that proper ventilation is required, which cost us nearly $5,000. This misinformation was both costly and dangerous.

Conclusion
The inspection felt rushed and careless. Critical issues that any competent home inspector should have identified were either ignored or misdiagnosed. The inspector appeared more interested in finishing quickly than in ensuring our home was safe and sound. We strongly caution others against using TEK Inspections. In our opinion, this company is not committed to its slogan or to providing the level of diligence and professionalism that homebuyers deserve.

I have used TEK so many times for inspections I couldent even count. They are so reliable and Ty is super professional on site which sets TEK inspections apart. The home buyer really will feel confident with the inspection.

Great experience with TEK Inspections. As a family-owned business ourselves it's nice to work with another family-owned business that values their clients and takes pride in their work. Ty had a wealth of knowledge, was efficient and thorough.

TEK inspections did an excellent job with my home inspection. It was easy to book with them, and they were very responsive. My deadline was pretty tight, and they were able to fit me in within a couple of days of my inquiry. The report is super detailed, and the inspector even took the time to explain some of the more technical stuff over the phone. Really appreciative and impressed by TEK!

Top notch home inspector. Was able to an appointment in less than 1 week. The inspector was thorough, and easy to work with. He walked through the entire inspection in person to make sure we understood everything.

Ty was great at explaining what he found. I also appreciated that they used a drone to closely inspect the roof.

Overall, great experience. Highly recommend.

TEK Inspections is the most professional and dependable inspections service I've ever worked with. Stress-free because they were honest and straightforward. And their staff is so friendly and courteous...a big plus! I highly recommend.

TEK Inspections were super accommodating and the staff was extremely helpful. Their inspection report was thorough, and they offered to review the report and address any report items. Their overall professionalism and organization made for an easy process. I highly recommend TEK Inspections for their experience, expertise, and overall responsive customer service.

Ty was extremely thorough with our home inspection, and took the time to go through every little detail that came up. He answered questions and gave solid recommendations and solutions. Scheduling with Elisa was extremely easy and quick. They have a true professional business and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

We had TEK Inspections provide a house inspection as we were closing on a house. Our inspector was incredibly detailed and spent the time with us to breakdown what he found. Compared to a previous inspection on the house that had taken place only a few months earlier, TEK's review felt more thorough.

Ty did a thorough inspection of our potential new home. I came by during the inspection and he patiently answered my questions.

TEK inspection was very easy to deal with. Payment and website was straightforward. The inspection was thorough and gave us a good idea of repairs needed.

The TEK inspector, Brett, performed the most thorough inspection we have witness in our rather long lives. Good photos and explanations on all areas. I highly recommend using them for your inspection.

Timely, professional, thorough, friendly! Got our inspection report the same day! 10 out of 10 would recommend again and again.

TEK inspections are incredibly detailed, prompt, well written, and easy to understand. Jennifer and Elisa are super friendly, and helpful when scheduling the inspection. I had a new home and they were always accommodating and understanding as schedules shifted, really felt part of the purchasing team. Ty, Cole, and Brett dig into every crevice, try all the windows, doors and crawl underneath the house with a fine tooth comb. Their knowledge of the latest fire codes and issues with Tahoe homes is first rate. I highly recommend their services, all reasonably priced and handled via text and email.

They have been extremely helpful and made everything easy for me being deployed. The inspector Brett found things I wouldn't even of known about. Like a small crack barley visible in on of the trusses and gave me some guidance to get it fixed.

I recently had TEK provide a commercial inspection at an RV campground with multiple electrical panels and buildings. I found them knowledgeable, thorough, and extremely generous with their time and efforts. Their verbal and written explanations of the various issues were clear and helpful, and they acted with extraordinary professionalism and kindness in their customer care.

Inspected a house in Carson. Couldn't figure out how to turn on a burner on the stove and so said it needed repair. Left a gaping 6" hole in the siding when a more discrete demonstration of the failure would have sufficed. Would not recommend if you have a choice.

Great, friendly and professional service!
TEK inspections were extremely supportive in our request for an immediate inspection due to our escrow deadline. Super thorough inspection and inspection report came in the same day!
Outstanding professional service at a reasonable price!

Brett Neumark was the inspector sent by Tek inspections. I was not satisfied with his efforts inspecting the home.

He first warned he would not be able to spend much time in the attic because of temperatures (understandable). He later said he felt it was unsafe to walk in the attic because of insulation and refused to go in the attic. The HVAC inspector was there at the same time and he was able to walk and inspect the attic without any issues. I feel he chose to not inspect the attic because of temperatures and made the insulation excuse to justify it. I understand it is uncomfortable and would need to be inspected cautiously due to insulation, but that is what he was paid to do.

He also said he could not see under the wood deck in the backyard which I could clearly see and inspect. He said a water heater was functioning when it clearly was not. He said he was unable to access a certain part of the crawl space to check for water damage. The pest inspector later accessed said part of crawlspace with no issues and located a leak. Again, I think he was avoiding being uncomfortable and not willing to do a thorough inspection. These are a couple examples of things he overlooked and carelessly inspected.

Brett spent a majority of his time working on his laptop and filling generic inspection information into the report. He did not inspect the house thoroughly and was unwilling to get his “hands dirty” to do a thorough inspection.

I do not recommend this company

Cole McCarthy is an excellent home inspector. Very knowledgable and thorough. He is also very quick in turning out a home inspection report so the buyer can make an informed decision.

We have worked with Tek Inspections through our business for a few years now. We recently had the pleasure of having them inspect the home we are purchasing. We could not have been more happy. They are very professional and thorough. We will happily refer them to our customers and friends.

I am a Lake Tahoe real estate professional and when my clients ask me who they should use for a Home Inspection I am happy to tell them about my positive experiences with TEK Home Inspections. I appreciate the level of thoroughness that they put into their inspection, they communicate with me and the buyer in an effective manner and they are great people to do business with. If you are looking for a home inspection in the Lake Tahoe, Truckee or Reno areas I highly recommend reaching out to TEK.

Tek Inspections are the most professional inspection company I have ever worked with, right from scheduling, time management and complete fast reports.
As a Real Estate professional I always know that I can count on Ty, Bret & Elisa treat my clients with outstanding service. Thank you.

I highly recommend TEK Inspections. Very complete and knowledgeable, saved us from what could have turned into a very expensive fix. Look forward to working with them in the future.

Great company, very professional and thorough. Ty took the time to address all of our questions and concerns and that makes buying a used home so much less stressful. I would highly recommend to anyone needing a home inspection and look forward to working with them again.

TEK Inspections is the company to go with hands down! Used a large company once and that company fell short of the standard TEK set. TEK saved us from buying a home with too many significant problems the first time - what a relief that was!!
Then the second home they inspected for us was 1/2 Price - their policy!

TEK is very, very thorough. They catch the big things and they catch the little things too. They go through the report with you before they leave the site. They email the very organized report to you before they leave the site.

Two people come out so it does not take half a day. They really know their business very well and we knew what our decision was about both houses by the time they finished. They are very personable and took the time to explain any questions we had.

All in all I am sure you could not get a better value than what TEK has to offer and you will be well protected!

Great inspection, nice people. I didn't like getting telemarketed for a home inspection, as agreed on page 3 of the contract. If you decide to use TEK, cross that paragraph out!
