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 used Alliance Pro Inspections for a new home purchase. They were very professional AND a nice bonus was their concierge service. It was really nice. I actually didn’t think I would use it. When the customer rep asked if he could connect me with an insurance representative I reluctantly accepted. Wow! I’m so glad I did. I saved a LOT of money. Thank you so much for everything. I would not hesitate to use Alliance Pro Inspections again.

We had a great experience with Alliance Pro Inspections! Noah was our inspector and did a fantastic job—he was incredibly thorough, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly. His attention to detail gave us real peace of mind during the home-buying process. The report was delivered quickly and was easy to understand. We highly recommend Noah and the team at Alliance Pro to anyone needing a reliable home inspection!

Had home inspection and radon testing done recently. The scheduling process was simple and efficient, and the pre inspection checklist was very clear. I encountered no issues during the process.The results were also easy to follow, as they offered a concise option for review along with their detailed inspection report. Jason went above and beyond by providing feedback on optional items after he completely evaluated for safety concerns. Overall, would highly recommend Alliance Pro inspections.

Sam went and inspected some sketchy looking areas of this 1930s house. He found a lot of big finds that we never would've known. The house is going to have have a lot repairs made on this house before we move in, thanks to Sam. No steps were skipped and went above and beyond. I do wish I would've asked for a septic inspection though but that's my own fault.

Jason French did an excellent and thorough job inspecting the home we're purchasing. Even though we couldn’t be there in person, his detailed report made us feel like we didn’t miss a thing. He identified both safety-related concerns and minor maintenance issues, and his explanations were clear, well-organized, and backed up with photos that helped us understand exactly what he saw. We were also impressed by how quickly the report was delivered — it gave us plenty of time to review everything and plan our next steps. Thanks to Jason, we feel much more confident moving forward. We’re grateful for his work and would absolutely recommend him and Alliance Pro Inspections to anyone in the home-buying process.

While the majority of their work was coordinated through our realtor with Gregg, I appreciate how thorough their reporting was, and how quickly they were able to schedule inspections during our due diligence period -- especially since we requested a lot of services.They were mostly prompt with answering our questions, or referring us to the appropriate parties for more detailed information about the results we received.My only disappointment was finding out that the "10% off" option they like to promote is only available for physical cash upfront, not a direct bank payment or check. :-)

Jason was great and patient. This is our first time buying a house so we showed up and he made us feel welcomed and not like an annoyance. We did leave him alone but when he was finished, he went through everything and calmed a lot of our concerns.If we ever buy another house, we will definitely use them again

Let me start by saying I am a first time home buyer, and after receiving and reviewing my home inspection report I was overwhelmed. The inspection report was very clear and precise and the best part was it also came with videos! I was able to talk with Noah about the findings more in depth over the phone and this made me feel better about the report. I really appreciate the promptness and details during this inspection! Will definitely recommend and use again if needed!

Gregg was a very professional, efficient, and helpful home inspector. He stayed after the inspection to explain the important information to me and just a few hours after had the full report uploaded and notified me about it. I would absolutely use Alliance Pro Inspections again!

What a pleasure to work with Gregg Bellofatto. He was very kind, knowledgeable, and patient throughout. He helped me understand the inspection process and showed me the steps to get the repairs before closing. Very honest and professional. Should I buy another property down the road, these guys will be 1st on my list! Thank you so much :)

The report was exceptionally thorough well thought out and clearly presented. Jason identified potential warnings I would have never considered. I doubt you’ll find a better inspector than Jason.
