Local housing

Homes in Boone.

Boone housing runs to deep early-1900s railroad-city stock with postwar additions, across the historic core and the postwar neighborhoods, on lobe till breaking into the deep Des Moines River valley — and that mix shapes what a thermal imaging here needs to find.

Local conditions in Boone

Boone 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. Boone sits in Boone County, and every Iowa county is EPA Radon Zone 1. Iowa HHS reports Iowa has the largest percentage of homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level of any state — 71.6 percent in the Iowa Radon Survey — and the Iowa seller disclosure form asks for any known radon test results. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Iowa leaves frost depth to the local building code rather than one statewide number, and the annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear that Boone-area homes face.

Questions

Common questions.

Do you offer thermal imaging?
Yes. Infrared scanning is available as an add-on.
What does it actually find?
Moisture tracking behind finishes, gaps in insulation, and hot electrical connections that are invisible to the naked eye.
What comes up most in Boone homes?
A railroad city's worth of century homes — original panels, layered wiring, aging clay sewer laterals worth scoping, and foundations at the hundred-year mark. Lots toward the Des Moines River valley rim add slope drainage. We date every major system so the report reads as a plan, not a scare.
