Why should you have a radon test?

Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking and is responsible for approximately 16% of lung cancer deaths in Canada.

Radon is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making it difficult to detect without testing.

Radon levels can be reduced in homes through mitigation systems, such as sub-slab depressurization, which can effectively reduce radon levels by up to 99%.
How does radon enter a home?
Radon can enter a home through cracks in the foundation, gaps around pipes and cables, and through well water. It is most commonly drawn into the home through the natural vacuum effect created by the heating and cooling systems.
From testing to peace of mind

Our experts will conduct a thorough assessment of your home to determine the best mitigation solution. This may include sealing cracks in the foundation, improving ventilation, and installing a radon mitigation system.

After mitigation systems are installed, we conduct a post-mitigation test to ensure that radon levels have been effectively reduced. This step ensures the safety of your home and your family.
Post-Mitigation Testing

Begin by scheduling a radon test with our certified technicians. Choose between short-term (3-7 days) or long-term (several months to a year) testing options for an accurate assessment of radon levels in your home.

Once the test is completed, our team will analyze the results and provide you with a detailed report. If radon levels are above the Health Canada guideline of 200 Bq/m³, it's time to consider mitigation.

If mitigation is required, our team will install the necessary systems, such as sub-slab depressurization, to reduce radon levels in your home. Installation typically takes a day and is minimally invasive.

Radon levels can fluctuate over time, so it's important to regularly test your home every two years or after any structural changes. Our team is here to provide ongoing support and maintenance for your radon mitigation system.
