New Construction Inspection in Apple Valley, Dakota County, by Home Inspectors Hastings MN — a 22-minute drive away. Apple Valley is an established 1970s–80s suburb where Federal Pacific panels and aging original systems are common findings in the first-ring housing stock, and we calibrate every visit to that.

Apple Valley housing runs to largely 1970s–80s first-ring suburban housing, across the established neighborhoods around the core, on rolling glacial terrain. That mix shapes what a new construction inspection here actually needs to look for — not a generic national checklist.

What our new construction inspection covers

  • Roof, flashing and exterior envelope of the finished build
  • Deck ledger attachment and flashing
  • Grading and drainage away from the new foundation
  • Mechanical systems started and operating
  • Incomplete or missed builder punch items

What a new construction inspection in Apple Valley looks for.

In the Westview, South Pines and Riverwood belts, 'new' routinely still means missed kick-out flashing, deck-ledger gaps, backfill grading that slopes the wrong way, and unfinished HVAC balancing — items a final builder walkthrough glosses over but an independent eye documents.
