Mold Inspection in Slater
Mold Inspection in Slater, Story County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Slater is a small rail-junction town of older homes drawing Ames and metro commuters.
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 Iowa basements and older housing stock.

Slater housing runs to older rail-junction homes with commuter infill, across the town core, on flat lobe till — and that mix shapes what a mold inspection here needs to find.
Local conditions in Slater
Slater sits on Des Moines Lobe till — heavy, poorly drained clay that holds water against foundations and moves with moisture, which is what drives basement seepage and foundation cracking across central Iowa. Slater sits in Story 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 Slater-area homes face.
