Why sewer scope inspection matters in Minneapolis

Minneapolis is served by Minneapolis Public Schools and sits in Hennepin County, classified by the EPA as Zone 1 — the highest radon-risk category. Combined with urban clay with significant prior-use considerations in older neighborhoods, the inspection considerations specific to Minneapolis are real and worth pricing in.
