🧪 Radon Testing

Radon is an invisible, odorless radioactive gas and the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the US. Levels vary house to house — the only way to know is to test. A certified 48-hour continuous monitor test during your inspection window gives you a defensible number before you close.

What's covered

  • 48-hour continuous radon monitor placement
  • Closed-house conditions verified
  • EPA action-level comparison (4.0 pCi/L)
  • Mitigation guidance if levels are elevated

Common questions

What if the radon test comes back high?

Mitigation systems are a solved problem — typically $800–$1,500 installed — and are commonly negotiated into the purchase. High radon is a repair item, not a deal breaker.

Does every home need a radon test?

The EPA recommends testing all homes below the third floor regardless of region. Neighboring houses can test wildly differently.
