SCHEDULE YOUR INSPECTION
Similar to mold, radon exists everywhere. No environment is free of it. The issue begins when over time, the gas is enclosed in a small space and builds up. This built up gas is released through cracks found in your home. The only way to know if you and your family are at risk is to test for it. It is recommended by the Surgeon General and the EPA that Americans should have their homes tested to find how much radon could be present in the air we breathe.
Our state-of-the-art Radon Machine is placed in the home at the lowest level. The machine continually collects readings for a minimum of 48 hours. During this time the home must be kept in “closed” condition to ensure the most accurate reading.

Having a radon test done before putting your home on the market looks good to potential buyers and could speed up negotiations. It may also be nice to share the results of the test and any steps taken to mitigate the issue if any were needed.
Having a radon test done as a contingency is highly recommended. However if the seller has already had a test done it is your choice to accept the results or have one done yourself to ensure it was done properly.
