New Construction Inspection in Lino Lakes

New Construction Inspection in Lino Lakes, Anoka County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Lino Lakes is a north-suburban city of 1980s-2000s subdivisions threaded between chain-of-lakes wetlands.

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.

Local housing

Homes in Lino Lakes.

Local conditions in Lino Lakes

Lino Lakes has been growing since it incorporated in 1955, and 44 percent of its land was developed by 2010, up from 37 percent in 2000. That means plenty of new homes going up on lots near Rice Creek and the chain of lakes. New Lino Lakes builds are worth checking at the stages that matter, with framing, grading and drainage away from the foundation, sump and basement details, and the finished mechanicals in view, so any defects are documented while the builder can still correct them.

Questions

Common questions.

Why inspect a brand-new home?
Even new homes carry defects — flashing, grading and rushed finish work are common. Catch them before you close.
When should it happen?
Before your final walkthrough, so the items land on the builder's punch list.
Will a high water table cause wet basements in Lino Lakes?
It can, depending on the lot. The city is laced with lakes and wetlands, so ground water sits closer to the surface in places. The evidence is what counts: sump pump run habits, efflorescence and staining on foundation walls, floor cracks, and whether the discharge line drains away from the house. A dry basement on inspection day in a dry week does not settle the question, so we also read the site and ask about the pump's history.
Do Lino Lakes' wetlands affect basements?
They can — subdivisions built between the chain-of-lakes wetlands sit on high seasonal water, so sump systems, drain tile and lot grading are the items to verify rather than assume.
