Learn more →Radon comes from the natural breakdown of uranium in rock and soil, and the ridge-and-valley terrain that makes Chattanooga beautiful also makes it geologically prone to elevated radon. The gas moves up through fractured rock, enters homes through slab cracks, sump pits, crawlspaces, and utility penetrations, and accumulates in the lowest levels — exactly the basements and dens families in Red Bank, East Ridge, Hixson, and Signal Mountain spend their evenings in.
The health case isn't hype: the EPA attributes about 21,000 U.S. lung cancer deaths per year to radon exposure, making it the second-leading cause of lung cancer overall and the leading cause among people who have never smoked. Risk scales with concentration and time — which is why the EPA recommends action at 4.0 pCi/L and why testing is recommended for every home below the third floor.
The good news is that radon is the rare environmental hazard with a cheap, definitive answer on both ends: a test tells you exactly where you stand, and a mitigation system — typically installed in one day for $900–$2,500 — reliably cuts levels by 80–99%. Two facts worth knowing before you rely on anyone else's number: radon varies house to house, so your neighbor's result means nothing for yours, and it varies season to season, so a marginal reading deserves a re-test rather than a shrug.
We're local, we test honestly, and we guarantee our systems in writing. If your number is low, that's the answer you'll get — and if it's high, you'll know exactly what fixing it costs before we touch anything.
Straight answers to what Chattanooga homeowners ask most.
Most systems run $900–$2,500 depending on foundation type (basement, crawlspace, slab) and routing. Testing is typically $150 or less, credited toward a system we install. Quotes are fixed, written, and free.
East Tennessee's geology produces elevated radon potential, and a meaningful share of Hamilton County homes test over the EPA action level. But it's house by house — the only way to know yours is to test.
The EPA recommends fixing homes at or above 4.0 pCi/L and suggests considering action from 2.0. There's no true "safe" threshold — risk scales with exposure — which is why mitigation targets the lowest achievable level, usually under 2.0.
Barely. One day of work, one small penetration in the slab or membrane, pipe routing you approve in advance, and a fan about as loud as a refrigerator hum — usually mounted in the attic, garage, or outside.
Monitor placement within a day or two, 48-hour test, results the same day it's picked up. Tell us your inspection deadline when you call — real estate windows get priority. Details on the real estate page.
Yes — crawlspace homes accumulate radon too. Mitigation uses a sealed vapor barrier with sub-membrane suction instead of a slab penetration, and it works just as well.
