Homes in New Hope.

New Hope housing runs to ramblers and split-levels on a tight grid, across the postwar neighborhoods, on flat till — and that mix shapes what a thermal imaging here needs to find.

Local conditions in New Hope

New Hope is one of the metro cities that requires a city Time-of-Sale evaluation before a home is sold. That municipal report is a limited disclosure ordered by the seller — it is not your own inspection, does not test radon or scope the sewer, and never works for the buyer. New Hope sits in Hennepin 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 New Hope-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.
Are ramblers on small New Hope lots hard to inspect for drainage?
Not hard, but the details matter. With houses close together, water from one roof can end up against a neighbor's foundation, and small yards leave little room to slope grade away. Where gutters discharge, whether the soil pitches toward the house and if window wells are deep enough are what matter on the lot. Simple fixes, such as downspout extensions and regrading, usually address it.
What do you find in New Hope homes?
Split-level moisture at the lower level, original 1960s-70s systems, and grading that has flattened over decades are the recurring items.
