Radon Testing-What You Should Know
Radon is a naturally occurring gas in at least 1/3 of homes in our area, from decaying minerals. These gases often leak into our homes through small cracks in the foundation, basement slabs, pipe accesses, etc. I can detect these gases and can tell you if they are at harmful levels in as short a time as 48 hours. I encourage everyone to test for this harmful gas in your home prior to moving in.
If you are seeking Radon testing please follow this link to schedule one now or add it to your home inspection during booking. For information on future monitoring and mitigation please keep reading below.

Radon Testing
Our Radon Testing process includes an electronic lab calibrated and certified device that we place in your home for 48 hours. This device actively collects air and analyzes the particles for radon isotopes.
Results are available immediately after the 48 hour test period, no waiting for a lab! The test is very accurate, and also gives us important environmental data, and secure tech that will tell us if there has been any tampering. That’s an important feature when your real estate transaction and your families health is on the line!

Radon Mitigation
The best mitigation efforts come as the home was built, however as that is rarely an option. The first step of course is to get a 48 hour Radon Test from Mt Nebo Home Inspections LLC, then you can view your instant results in detail. Most mitigation efforts will start at about $1500.00 from local contractors. Follow these links for more info:
