Radon Testing

Health and Safety, Home Inspection, Radon

Radon Testing

No matter where you are in America, your home may be exposed to dangerous radon gas. Radon is a natural, radioactive gas which is produced when uranium in the Earth’s crust decays, and turns into radium.

Outdoors, radon will naturally dissipate harmlessly into the atmosphere as it rises through the crust. But in homes, it can become trapped, which is dangerous for the health of you and your family. Radon is colorless and odorless, and it is extremely carcinogenic. According to the EPA, radon is one of the leading contributors to the development of lung cancer, behind only smoking. For this reason, regular radon testing is key whether you’re a homeowner, or you’re interested in purchasing a home. Learn more below.

What Is A Radon Test, And How Does It Work?

Radon testing is the only way to determine if your home has higher-than-average levels of radon, which can pose a health risk to your family.

There are two primary types of radon testing. You can choose to use a short-term test kit, which is usually placed and left for a period of up to 90 days, or a long-term kit, which is designed to measure seasonal fluctuations in radon levels. Long-term kits are left in place for 90+ days.

Radon Air Testing

Most radon test kits consist of a charcoal canister or a similar material, which can pick up and trap small amounts of radon. Using lab tests, the amount of radon in a test kit can be determined, and the overall radon levels in your home can be measured.

 

While at-home test kits are available and are effective, hiring a professional such as a home inspector will often provide you with better results, as home inspectors can use higher-quality test kits, and place them in areas of your home where elevated radon levels are the most likely to be found.

Why Are Radon Tests Important? Understanding The Benefits

The biggest benefit of radon testing is peace of mind. Radon has no smell, taste, or color, and beyond contributing to the development of lung cancer, radon exposure has no symptoms that can be identified by a doctor. That means a radon test is the only way to make sure your home has a safe level of radon.

 

Radon tests can also save you money if you’re trying to sell your home, because you can provide information about radon levels to potential buyers, and ensure you meet local codes related to radon compliance. The EPA also recommends that you test for radon when buying a home. That way, if high levels of radon are detected, you can request that the home seller install mitigation features, or you can back out of the purchase by utilizing your home inspection contingency.

How Much Does A Radon Test Cost?

Professional radon testing costs between $150-$300. DIY test kits are cheaper, but may not provide the best results, so we recommend turning to a professional home inspector whenever possible.

Test Your Home And Keep Your Family Safe

Radon testing is the only way to be sure that your home is safe from the dangerous effects of radon. So don’t wait. Schedule your radon test today –  we use Sun Nuclear machines to make sure your home is free of this potentially-deadly, radioactive gas.

I had Alliance Pro and Borden Pest Control perform a pre-closing inspection on the home I was looking to buy. Jacob from Alliance Pro was exceptional with his level of detail and willingness to explain every step of the process to me. He seemed very happy to lead me through every inch of the property, and teach me what he was looking for. 10/10 would ask for him again.

Noah was an absolute professional! He was very thorough and engaging throughout the inspection, providing onsite feedback that was complimented by his report. Noah provided a comprehensive inspection report that was very informative and placed us in an ideal position to make decisions regarding a purchase. I appreciated his overall professionalism, timeliness, and attention to detail. My engagement with Noah was the best I have ever experienced involving the sale or purchase of a home. Noah gets my 100% recommendation to any of my friends and acquaintances.

I worked with Alliance Pro Inspections for the purchase of my new home. This house has a massive crawlspace and attic which Noah crawled and walked every inch of. Noah is also pool certified so he ran me through an inspection on our new pool too. Highly recommend and very valuable to any new home buyer.

Noah from Alliance Pro Inspections conducted an inspection on our home and I feel that we most certainly got our money's worth. Noah was very thorough with his inspections and went out of his way to explain the importance of each thing that he spotted. Noah also took his time and made sure everything was to the quality that he would want it to be if it were his own house. Noah added to his services by also giving us tips on things that we could do to maintain our appliances. I would 100% recommend getting Alliance Pro Inspections for inspecting your new home.

Absolutely phenomenal.I shared Noah's work where's my co-workers and they were astonished like us at the detail the preciseness and the issues that he found we're tremendous. Noah took the time to photograph and video the issues of the home that we are buying. This had so much value to us because it saved us $10,000 or more in repairs. If you're not using Noah for your inspector it will cost you.

We wanted to be at this inspection as it was a foreclosure and Alliance Pro allowed that. Noah was fantastic - answered the questions we had, was informative, went over the report with us at the conclusion, and gave us suggestions for some of the issues. All in all a great experience with this company.

Bryan and Jorge were very thorough in their inspection, helpful in their suggestions, and the way their report was formatted it was so easy to review with the most important things well highlighted. This was a much better experience than the inspections we had when buying and selling our previous home.

Noah is great to work with and if you are in need of home inspection services he is the one to use. He is prompt, professional, and his reports are thorough and fast! He uses an Ipad and takes notes as he is inspecting so your report is almost instantaneous. We appreciated his friendliness and his in depth knowledge of all aspects of what makes a home ready for sale. Thank you Noah!

Noah and his team made feeling secure about buying my first home. He found little stuff that can easily be fixed as well as some pretty major things that will have to be prepared and replace. Noah has been helpful, courteous, and very receptive to answering ALL my many questions. I’d HIGHLY recommend him even if you AREN’T buying a house just to check for termites, mold, and normal wear and tear that may need repairing in your current home.

While I didn't have any in person contact with Noah, from the time I ordered the inspection from when it got done was relatively quick. He got the inspection done and I recieved the report on the same day and he was extremely thorough with discrepancies in all aspects. I was pleased with the experience as a whole and should I need an inspection in the future I would come back and have him work with me again.

The showed up during the time window specified and called to let me known when they were on the way to the house. I ordered a septic inspection and pump out for a house I'm buying. However once they found the tank and opened it up to inspect it was working perfectly and there was no need to pump it. They saved me a pumping fee I didn't need to spend, in three years when it's time to inspect it again I'll call them back.
