Roof Inspection in St. Anthony

Roof Inspection in St. Anthony, Stearns County, by Closer Look Inspectors. St. Anthony is a Stearns County farm village of about 90 people, centered on its brick parish church.

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 St. Anthony.

St. Anthony housing runs to early-1900s village houses and farm homes, a thin mid-century stock and a few newer builds, across the small townsite around St. Anthony Catholic Church and the farms of Krain Township, on glacial drift plain of central Stearns County, in the country between Albany and Freeport — and that mix shapes what a roof inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in St. Anthony

St. Anthony does not run a point-of-sale housing ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on the home. St. Anthony sits in Stearns 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 St. Anthony-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.
How is this St. Anthony different from the one near Minneapolis?
It is a separate town: a Stearns County village of about 90 people, settled around 1880 and incorporated in 1911, next to Albany and Freeport and centered on its brick church with a steeple. Houses are older village or farm homes, many on private wells and septic. Foundations and basement moisture, wiring and plumbing updates, roof condition and chimney age, and rodent damage where a home has sat quiet are worth a look.
