Thermal Imaging built for Shoreview homes
Shoreview — south of Lino Lakes, across I-694 — is a 12-square-mile, ~27,000-resident city in Ramsey County built largely around the Snail Lake / Turtle Lake / Lake Owasso chain. The housing inventory leans 1965-1985 ramblers, walkouts, and split-entries, with a 1990s-2000s premium-tier cluster around Lake Owasso and Turtle Lake, plus newer 2010s-2020s redevelopment along Lexington Avenue and Highway 96. Shoreview inspections routinely surface era-typical issues — Federal Pacific panels, aluminum wiring, cast iron stacks, original fiberglass-tab roofs replaced once and now due again, EIFS-stucco moisture on the higher-end lake homes, and chronic basement seepage on the lakefront and near-lakefront stock. Soils are a mix of Anoka sand plain and clay-loam pockets, and the high water table around the lakes drives moisture issues at depth. Schools are Mounds View Public Schools. Snail Lake Regional Park, Tony Schmidt Regional Park, and the Shoreview Community Center are the recreational anchors. Drive time from Blaine: 18 minutes.
That local context shapes how we approach thermal imaging here. Our FLIR camera surfaces missing insulation, hidden moisture intrusion, electrical hot spots, and rim-joist air leakage. Every Shoreview inspection includes a digital report in 24 hours and a phone walkthrough. A common related finding in Shoreview is hidden moisture — we check for it carefully.
