Mold Inspection in St. Michael, Wright County, by Closer Look Inspectors. St. Michael is a growing Wright County city of newer construction around a historic core.

Local housing

Homes in St. Michael.

St. Michael housing runs to 2000s subdivision growth around a small historic core, across the newer subdivisions and the original town center, on rolling till over till plain — and that mix shapes what a mold inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in St. Michael

In June 2013, about four inches of rain fell in two hours and heavily taxed St. Michael's stormwater system, though according to city staff no homes were known to have flooded directly. Moisture still finds other routes. Sump systems, window wells, basement walls, bath fans, dryer vents and attic ventilation are the places to check for conditions that feed mold, and sampling makes sense in some cases. Finding the moisture source is what matters most to St. Michael buyers.

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.
What is worth checking on a St. Michael house that is under 20 years old?
Grading, attic ventilation, the roof, deck attachment and the exterior envelope. Soil settles against foundations in the first years, so the slope away from the walls and window wells matter. Ventilation baffles and insulation in the attic, exhaust fans that end outdoors, and caulking at siding and windows matter as well. These are usually cheap to fix and easy to overlook.
What do you find in St. Michael's newer homes?
Homes from the 2000s build wave are now hitting their first roof and mechanical replacements at once. We date each system so you know what's due, and we check grading — fill on newer lots settles for years and often ends up sloped back toward the foundation.
