New Construction Inspection in Sheffield
New Construction Inspection in Sheffield, Franklin County, by Closer Look Inspectors — a 110-minute drive away. Sheffield is a small Franklin County farm town of older frame homes, 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.

Sheffield housing runs to older frame farm-town homes, across the town core, on gently rolling till in Franklin 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 Sheffield
Sheffield 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. Sheffield sits in Franklin 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 42 inches in northern Iowa, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear we calibrate every Sheffield visit to find.
