Local housing

Homes in Stewartville.

Stewartville housing runs to postwar and newer homes south of Rochester, across the postwar neighborhoods and newer subdivisions, on southeastern rolling till — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Stewartville

Out in Stewartville, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Stewartville sits in Olmsted County, in EPA Radon Zone 1, and MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk. Finished basements concentrate radon, and only a 48-hour test tells you the number. Footings here must reach the 3-1/2-foot depth Minnesota Rules 1303.1600 set for the southern frost zone, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle is what drives the settlement cracks, frost heave and ice-dam wear that Stewartville-area homes face.

Questions

Common questions.

Is radon really a concern in Minnesota?
Yes. The Minnesota Department of Health reports that more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk, and finished basements are where it concentrates.
How long does the test run?
A 48-hour minimum under closed-house conditions; the result is delivered with your inspection report.
What is typical in Stewartville homes?
A mix of postwar stock at second-replacement age and newer subdivisions at first. Dating the roof and mechanicals accurately is where the report earns its keep, plus grading on the newer fill.
