Mold Inspection in Bettendorf

Mold Inspection in Bettendorf, Scott County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Bettendorf is a Quad Cities river suburb of mid-century and newer homes.

Local housing

Homes in Bettendorf.

Bettendorf housing runs to mid-century and newer river-suburb homes, across the river-side neighborhoods and newer subdivisions, on bluff and river-terrace ground — and that mix shapes what a mold inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Bettendorf

No Iowa law requires a home inspection before a sale — the one mandatory time-of-transfer inspection covers private septic systems (Iowa Code 455B.172) — which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a Bettendorf home. Bettendorf sits in Scott County, and every Iowa county is EPA Radon Zone 1. Iowa HHS reports Iowa has the largest percentage of homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level of any state — 71.6 percent in the Iowa Radon Survey — and the Iowa seller disclosure form asks for any known radon test results. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Iowa leaves frost depth to the local building code rather than one statewide number, and the annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear that Bettendorf-area homes face.
