How often should I get radon testing done in my home?

• <div><p>You should have a professional test for radon every <b>two to five years</b>. A good rule of thumb is to get testing done every five years if you’ve never had an issue before and every two years if you have. You may also want to schedule testing if you notice symptoms of radon exposure or if you do intermittent DIY radon testing and notice changes in your levels between tests. If you have an active radon monitor, you can schedule testing if you notice levels increasing over time.</p></div>

Why is radon testing important?

• <div><p>Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that can cause lung cancer; testing ensures safe indoor air quality.</p></div>

What are the health risks associated with radon exposure in homes?

• <div><p>Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.</p></div>

Can I do my own radon testing?

• <div><p>It is possible to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-test-for-radon.htm">test for radon yourself</a> using DIY radon test kits, but these at-home test kits should never be a replacement for professional radon testing. DIY test kits can provide some information about radon exposure in your house, but your indoor temperature and humidity can affect the results, as can improper usage of the test kit. You could save yourself some money by hiring a radon professional to begin with, and when it comes to your family’s safety, hiring an experienced professional to do the testing is usually the best option.</p></div>

Can I test for radon myself?

• <div><p>Yes, DIY kits are available, but professional testing provides more accurate results and comprehensive reports.</p></div>

"Lesson learned. Always get an estimate. BEFORE the work is done. At least a digital copy. Arrangements for the project were made, with some one named Lynn, for the company to send someone to complete the work. We were quoted over the phone 4500-5000 which included a mold test. A sub contractor with an entirely different company (National Mold Company) was sent. When the contractor arrived, he stated that the job would be much more simpler than first thought. This led us to believe that the job would cost less, no. All said and done, they charged $5500. All said and done, it's almost like no work was done. The stains and the smell are still there. Only one actual board was taken upon the attic room. The ceiling in the bedroom was primed and painted but are still visible and have a funky smell. At this point I'm going to. Do what we should have done; Do the job ourselves. Just now with $5500 less dollars in our pockets. A detailed receipt was not given even though it was requested."
