New Construction Inspection in Kelley
New Construction Inspection in Kelley, Story County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Kelley is a small Story County village of older homes whose post office ran from 1875 to 2013, 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.
KelleyTuned to Kelley.
Kelley housing runs to older frame village homes from the late-1800s rail era with scattered later additions, across the small village core and the Story County farm ground around it, on the Des Moines Lobe edge in southern Story County — younger, flatter till with slow drainage — and that mix shapes what a new construction inspection here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.
Local conditions in Kelley
Iowa runs no municipal time-of-sale inspection ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a Kelley home. Kelley sits in Story County, and Iowa has the highest average indoor radon level of any state — the Iowa DNR puts roughly five in ten Iowa homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level, and Iowa sellers must disclose known radon results on the property disclosure. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Footings here are set below a frost line of roughly 36 to 42 inches, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear we calibrate every Kelley visit to find.
