Every inspection a Hastings home might need.

Hastings is an unusual housing market to inspect. The downtown core holds some of the oldest building stock in Dakota County — limestone foundations, century-old brick, balloon framing — while the bluffs and newer subdivisions bring everything from 1970s ramblers to last-year's new construction. A single inspection menu cannot serve all of that well, so we offer a focused range of services and match the right ones to your property.

How the services fit together

Most buyers start with a full home inspection and add the tests that matter here on the Mississippi: radon (Dakota County sits in EPA Radon Zone 1, where elevated levels are common), a sewer scope for older clay or cast-iron laterals, and thermal imaging to find moisture and missing insulation you cannot see. Sellers lean on a pre-listing inspection to control the timeline; new-build owners use the 11-month warranty inspection before the builder's coverage expires. Every visit follows the InterNACHI Standards of Practice and uses moisture metering, thermal imaging, and a sewer-scope camera as standard tools.
