What is Radon, and Why Should Canton-Area Homeowners Care?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas. You can’t see, smell, or taste it — but it can accumulate inside homes across North Georgia, especially in basements and crawlspaces.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns that radon exposure is a major public health concern, especially in homes with levels above 4 pCi/L. High radon levels have been linked to lung cancer, even in nonsmokers.
Soil composition in metro Atlanta makes radon inspection a must.
Radon Testing Options in Metro Atlanta Homes
We offer both short-term and long-term radon test kits to suit your needs. A short-term test gives quick insight over 2–7 days, while a long-term test gives a more accurate yearly average.
Our professionals follow strict EPA guidelines for test placement and procedures. We help homeowners in Canton, Acworth, and surrounding Metro Atlanta areas get accurate results the first time.
Understanding Your Radon Test Results
Radon levels are measured in pCi/L (picocuries per liter). The EPA's action level is 4 pCi/L. If your levels are above this, a radon mitigation system is strongly recommended. Even levels between 2 and 4 pCi/L should be monitored and often require follow-up tests.
If you're testing a home in Cumming, GA or nearby, we’ll guide you on what the numbers mean and what next steps to take to ensure a safe environment.
Installing a Radon Mitigation System in North Georgia Homes
A radon mitigation system safely redirects radon gas from below your foundation to outside the home. Our licensed installers make sure it’s done right — the first time.
Once installed, regular radon testing is essential to ensure your home's radon levels remain below the known safe level of 2 pCi/L. Serving residential properties in Canton, Cumming, and the Metro Atlanta area.
