New Construction Inspection in Grant
New Construction Inspection in Grant, Montgomery County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Grant is a small Montgomery County town platted in 1858 as Milford, incorporated in 1912 and named for Ulysses S. Grant, with a commercial historic district on the National Register, and we calibrate every visit to that.
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.

Grant housing runs to a small stock of houses from the late 1800s and early 1900s around the 1920 peak of 282 residents, with a few postwar and newer homes, across the Grant Commercial Historic District along 2nd Street and U Avenue, the residential blocks around it, and the farm ground and acreages beyond, on loess-mantled hills of the Southern Iowa Drift Plain in northeast Montgomery County — and that mix shapes what a new construction inspection here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.
Local conditions in Grant
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 Grant home. Grant sits in Montgomery 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 we calibrate every Grant visit to find.
