Residential Inspection in Aurora

Residential Inspection in Aurora, Buchanan County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Aurora is a small village of older homes in northern Buchanan County, and we calibrate every visit to that.

Residential inspection is the heart of Closer Look — close to 95 percent of what we do across Saint Paul, the Twin Cities and greater Iowa. It is the umbrella over every home service we offer, with specialty services available as add-ons: the full home inspection, buyer's and pre-listing reviews, radon, sewer scope, thermal imaging, mold and moisture, foundation, roof, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, new-construction and 11-month-warranty work, well-water testing and older-home evaluations — one trusted, buyer-side read on a Iowa house, photo-mapped and delivered within 24 hours.

Tuned to Aurora.

Aurora housing runs to early-1900s farm-town homes with postwar and newer additions, across the village core, on rolling Iowan Surface ground cut by the Maquoketa, Volga and Wapsipinicon valleys — and that mix shapes what a residential inspection here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.

Local conditions in Aurora

Iowa runs no municipal time-of-sale inspection ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a Aurora home. Aurora sits in Buchanan 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 Aurora visit to find.

Questions

Common questions.

What counts as a residential inspection?
Any owner-occupied or rental dwelling — single-family homes, townhomes, condos, duplexes and small multi-family up to four units. The full home inspection is the core, and radon, sewer scope, thermal imaging and the rest are available as add-ons when the property calls for them.
Is residential really most of your work?
Yes — roughly 95 percent of Closer Look inspections are residential. It is what we are built around, from century-old capital-city homes to brand-new metro subdivisions.
Which services can be added to a residential inspection?
Any of them: full home, buyer's, pre-listing, radon, sewer scope, thermal imaging, mold and moisture, foundation, roof, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, new-construction, 11-month warranty, well-water and older-home inspections. Specialty services are available as add-ons.
Do you cover Aurora?
Yes — Aurora is a short run from our Edgewood base. Northeast-Iowa footings sit below a roughly 42-inch frost line, so settlement cracks and ice-dam wear get a hard look, and older laterals get a sewer-scope recommendation.
