Mold Inspection in Jordan

Mold Inspection in Jordan, Scott County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Jordan is a river-valley town of historic homes tucked below the bluffs.

A mold and moisture inspection — mold testing and mold detection in one visit — pairs infrared moisture mapping with lab-backed sampling to locate active moisture and trace it to its source — a frequent issue in Minnesota basements and older housing stock.

Local housing

Homes in Jordan.

Jordan housing runs to historic homes below the bluffs, across the valley core, on river-valley bottomland below steep bluffs — and that mix shapes what a mold inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Jordan

Out in Jordan, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Jordan sits in Scott County, in EPA Radon Zone 1, and MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk. Finished basements concentrate radon, and only a 48-hour test tells you the number. Footings here must reach the 3-1/2-foot depth Minnesota Rules 1303.1600 set for the southern frost zone, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle is what drives the settlement cracks, frost heave and ice-dam wear that Jordan-area homes face.

Questions

Common questions.

How do you test for mold?
Infrared imaging and moisture meters pinpoint wet areas; when the evidence warrants it, samples go to an accredited laboratory.
What drives moisture problems here?
Grading and downspout discharge, below-grade humidity, and the occasional plumbing or roof leak.
Is a pre-1900 house in Jordan too old to buy?
Not at all, but the inspection matters. Older brick, stone or block foundations and mortar need a close look, and the wiring, plumbing and heating have usually been updated in stages. Signs of moisture, movement and patchwork repairs are the things to look for. The report lets you plan for the cost of work that old houses tend to need.
Does bluff runoff affect Jordan homes?
It does — water coming off the bluffs concentrates in the valley, so grading, drainage and basement moisture are the items that matter most.
