Roof Inspection in Burnsville

Roof Inspection in Burnsville, Dakota County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Burnsville is a river-bluff suburb mixing 1970s-1980s homes with newer development along the Minnesota River.

A roof inspection evaluates the covering, flashing, penetrations and drainage and gives an honest read on remaining service life — including the ice-dam wear and hail bruising Minnesota weather leaves behind.

Local housing

Homes in Burnsville.

Burnsville housing runs to 1970s-1980s homes with newer river-valley development, across the bluff neighborhoods above the Minnesota River, on river-bluff and rolling sites — and that mix shapes what a roof inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Burnsville

Burnsville does not run a point-of-sale housing ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on the home. Burnsville sits in Dakota 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 Burnsville-area homes face.

Questions

Common questions.

Do you walk the roof?
When the pitch, height and covering allow it safely; otherwise we assess from the eaves and a ladder and note the method used.
What roof problems show up here?
Aging shingles, failed flashing, hail damage and ice-dam wear at the eaves are the recurring findings.
Is Burnsville's radon risk the same as the rest of Dakota County?
Dakota County is in EPA Radon Zone 1, and the Minnesota Department of Health recommends testing every Minnesota home. That applies to a Burnsville rambler as much as a new townhome. Radon levels vary house to house, so a test on the specific property is the only way to know. We can place a short-term test during the inspection.
Do you cover Burnsville?
Yes — older bluff homes and newer development alike along the river.
