Home Inspector in Beaver Bay, MN

Beaver Bay is one of the oldest communities on the North Shore. The housing here is a mix of older homes, seasonal cabins, and some newer construction. Many properties in and around Beaver Bay have been used seasonally for years, and some are now being sold as year-round homes.

Seasonal Properties Need a Different Home Inspection

A cabin or seasonal home that sat empty through the winters is a different inspection than a home that’s been occupied year-round. Pipes that freeze and thaw. Heating systems that cycle on and off with no one watching. Critters that find their way in through gaps that open up as materials move with the temperature. When a seasonal property gets listed as a permanent residence, we pay close attention to whether the structure, insulation, and mechanical systems can actually handle 12 months of North Shore weather.

Beaver Bay gets everything the lake puts out. Wind, moisture, heavy snow, and the temperature swings that come with lakefront living. Exterior surfaces, roofing, and foundations all take more abuse here than they would even a few miles inland.
