11-Month Warranty Inspection in Cottage Grove, Washington County, by Home Inspectors Hastings MN — a 12-minute drive away. Cottage Grove is the community where the documented 3M PFAS groundwater plume makes well-water testing a real closing-table issue for many properties, and we calibrate every visit to that.

Cottage Grove housing runs to mostly 1960s–2000s suburban housing, across the older village core and the newer subdivisions east of Highway 61, on groundwater within the documented 3M PFAS plume area. That mix shapes what a 11-month warranty inspection here actually needs to look for — not a generic national checklist.

  • A full re-inspection before the 1-year warranty ends
  • Settling cracks and nail pops from the first year
  • Grading that has shifted over a freeze-thaw cycle
  • HVAC balancing and any systems underperforming

FAQ

Common questions.

Why time it to 11 months?
The builder's workmanship warranty usually lasts one year. Inspecting at month 11 captures a full season of settling and weather before it ends.
What do you find at this stage in Hastings new builds?
Drywall cracks from settling, grading that's begun to slope toward the home, deck and flashing issues, and HVAC that needs balancing.
Is this a full inspection?
Yes — a complete standards-based inspection focused on warranty-eligible items, delivered as a builder-ready report.
Should I test the well in Cottage Grove for PFAS?
If the home is on a private well in the affected area, yes — PFAS has no taste or smell and only a lab test reveals it.
