Thermal Imaging in St. Charles
Thermal Imaging in St. Charles, Madison County, by Closer Look Inspectors. St. Charles is a Madison County town platted in 1852 and incorporated in 1876, home of the Hinterland music festival, and we calibrate every visit to that.
Infrared thermal imaging uses a calibrated thermal camera to surface hidden moisture, missing insulation and overheating electrical connections — available as an add-on or as a stand-alone thermal imaging inspection.

St. Charles housing runs to houses from the 1852 platting and the 1876 incorporation, early-1900s homes, postwar ranches and newer subdivision-style homes, across the original platted blocks, the school area and the newer streets on the edges of town, on loess-mantled hills of the Southern Iowa Drift Plain in eastern Madison County — and that mix shapes what a thermal imaging here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.
Local conditions in St. Charles
No Iowa law requires a home inspection before a sale — the one mandatory time-of-transfer inspection covers private septic systems (Iowa Code 455B.172) — which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a St. Charles home. St. Charles sits in Madison 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 we calibrate every St. Charles visit to find.
