Why Test Your Home for Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter homes from the soil beneath and around a building.
Because radon cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted, testing is the only way to determine the radon level inside your home.
Residential Radon Testing
Hillsdale Radon provides professional radon testing for homeowners throughout the area.
Testing can be useful when:
Buying a home
Selling a home

Concerned about indoor air quality
Checking an existing mitigation system
Monitoring radon levels over time
We can help determine the appropriate testing option for your home.
What Happens During a Radon Test?
The testing process depends on the type of test being performed.
Testing equipment is placed in an appropriate area of the home and left in place for the required testing period. Once testing is complete, the results can be reviewed to determine whether additional action is recommended.
What If My Home Has Elevated Radon?
If your test results show elevated radon, don't panic.
Hillsdale Radon can evaluate your home and explain the available mitigation options.
A properly designed radon mitigation system can reduce radon levels by collecting radon from beneath the building and exhausting it safely outside.
Residential Radon Mitigation
Every home is different.
The appropriate mitigation system can depend on factors such as:
Foundation type
Basement or crawlspace construction
Slab construction
Soil conditions
Existing drainage or ventilation systems
Building layout
Hillsdale Radon evaluates the property and designs a mitigation approach based on the home's characteristics.
Radon Testing When Buying a Home
If you're buying a home, radon testing can provide important information about the property before completing the purchase.
Hillsdale Radon can provide testing for home buyers and help explain the results so you can understand what they mean for the property.
Radon Testing for Homeowners
Even if you have lived in your home for years, testing can help you understand the radon level inside your property.
Radon levels can vary over time, which is why periodic testing may be recommended.
Radon Mitigation for Existing Homes
If your home has elevated radon, mitigation can be installed in many existing homes.
The system is designed around the home's foundation and construction rather than using the same setup for every property.
