Radon Testing and Mitigation for Buying a Home

Buying a home can be really exciting. Getting a fresh start almost. You can change what you didn’t like about your old house. Or maybe this is your first time buying a house, and it’s a whole new level of freedom for most. You get to make it your own. But if you don’t check those radon levels, the whole new level of freedom or the chance for a fresh start may become a lot more difficult for you. When you are purchasing a home there are many different things that you need to remember and have done before you sign that last piece of paper. Before you purchase your new home in the state of Iowa, radon testing is a must. Let AmeriServ be your Iowa Radon Mitigation professional service provider.

Radon is a radioactive gas that forms when radium decays. It is colorless and odorless. This gas can be very harmful, and even deadly. But unfortunately it’s most common in the homes of many people and they generally are not even aware of it.

As a buyer of a new home, you have the right to ask the seller to produce results of a radon test. You can either accept an old test that was done or ask them to have a new one performed. The EPA reports that radon can be a problem in any type of home new or old.

If there is radon detected in the home, as a buyer, you have the right to select radon testing and can request a radon mitigation Iowa specialist to come in and get the radon levels down so it is safe for you and your family.  This is a silent but deadly problem that affects thousands of people every year. Don’t let it affect you or your family. Contact us today at AmeriServ Radon Mitigation Iowa for professional radon testing and mitigation.
