Our Process

State-of-the-Art Equipment

Our certified technicians use advanced continuous radon monitors and professional-grade inspection tools. Our devices provide hourly readings while monitoring temperature, air pressure, humidity, and tampering detection.

Your Appointment

For radon services, the monitor remains in place for a minimum 48-hour period under controlled "closed house conditions" to capture accurate radon level data. Home inspections typically take 2-4 hours, depending on property size.

Radon Testing Results

We return to collect the monitor and immediately begin analyzing your home's radon data using our annually calibrated equipment. You'll receive your detailed test results within 24 hours, complete with clear explanations and recommendations if action is needed.
