New Construction Inspection in Montezuma

A new construction inspection gives a newly built home an independent review before your final walkthrough — because builders miss things, and an outside set of eyes catches them while the fix is still the builder's responsibility.

Our Montezuma team covers east-central Iowa — Montezuma, Grinnell, Brooklyn, Sigourney, Marengo and the Poweshiek, Iowa, Keokuk, Jasper and Mahaska County towns within about 25 miles. Full home inspections, radon testing and sewer scopes lead here: the early-1900s farm-town stock carries original wiring and plumbing, the rolling drift-plain clay moves foundations with every wet and dry season, and Iowa's Zone 1 radon standing makes a 48-hour test a smart add-on on nearly every house. Reports are photo-mapped and delivered within 24 hours.

Local conditions in Montezuma

Iowa runs no municipal time-of-sale inspection ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a Montezuma home. Montezuma sits in Poweshiek County, and Iowa has the highest average indoor radon level of any state — the Iowa DNR puts roughly five in ten Iowa homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level, and Iowa sellers must disclose known radon results on the property disclosure. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Footings here are set below a frost line of roughly 36 to 42 inches, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear we calibrate every Montezuma visit to find.

When should it happen?
Before your final walkthrough, so the items land on the builder's punch list.
