Why Melrose homeowners get an inspection
Southeast Iowa’s river-valley towns carry a lot of historic housing, where dated electrical, plumbing, and basement moisture are typical. Radon is a statewide concern — Iowa has the highest average indoor radon levels in the country — so a measured radon test belongs on a Melrose inspection regardless of the home’s age.
