Radon Testing
Radon is nothing new. What is new is our understanding of how dangerous it is. The fact is just 1 pCi/L is equivalent to smoking 2.5 cigarettes per day. We perform radon testing using continuous radon monitors that provide a read out of the hourly readings. This allows us to know if the test was tampered with and also what fluctuations were due too. We never use any other method of testing ensuring accuracy and instant results. Never wait for lab results.Radon tests are performed over
a 48 hour period. As soon as we pick the monitor up we have the results. Radon is present in every home. If the home has never been tested before or hasn't been tested in the last two years we strongly suggest adding radon testing to your home inspection. It is the fastest and easiest way to ensure your family's safety today! Click the link below to find out more about radon and its potential risks. Have a conversation with your real-estate agent about radon testing and if your offer to purchase allows you to have a radon test performed. If you decide after you own the home to have testing done, we are happy to perform the test.
​
Fact Check! Only 1/3 of our inspections have radon testing performed. Yet, a surprising 2/3 of radon tests we perform show levels of radon above the 4 pCi/L limit set by the EPA. That means a large number of our clients are purchasing homes with high levels of radon without knowing it. Not only does this mean when it comes time to sell their home they may be on the hoof for installing a radon mitigation system but, much worse, their families are exposed to dangerous levels of radon during their ownership.

Don't put your family and you wallet at risk. Get the peace of mind provided by a radon test performed by Buyer's Edge.

Pre-Listing Inspection
Look, we understand no one wants to admit there is something wrong with their home. The truth is every home has some issues. Ask any inspector and they will tell you they have never inspected a perfect home. Not even new construction. If a deal for your home falls through because of a bad inspection it may cost you thousands of dollars. There is never a guarantee you will get another offer as high as that offer. It may take months to get another offer costing you. If you are already under
contract on your next home it could potentially put that deal at risk. There is one easy way to limit those risks. Get a pre-listing inspection! This is the same great inspection as our standard home inspection. Let our inspectors help you understand any issues with your home and prioritize them for repair.
