Why Atlanta Properties Require Professional Radon Testing & Mitigation
Atlanta Housing Types & Radon Risk
Atlanta's diverse housing stock—from historic homes to new construction—all face radon health risks. Radon in basement areas is particularly concerning in older homes, while radon in crawl space foundations affects properties built across multiple decades.
Local Geology & Radon Exposure
Atlanta sits atop varied geology with pockets of granite bedrock throughout metro area. These formations contain elevated uranium concentrations that decay into radon gas. The gas migrates upward through soil and enters buildings through foundation cracks, sump pits, and gaps around utility penetrations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Radon in Atlanta
Why are radon levels elevated in Atlanta?
Atlanta is in EPA Radon Zone 2 with granite bedrock containing elevated uranium levels. As uranium decays, it produces radon gas that migrates through soil into homes and buildings, resulting in average radon levels of 3.5 pCi/L, near the EPA action threshold of 4.0 pCi/L.
How much does radon mitigation cost in Atlanta?
Radon mitigation installation costs in Atlanta typically range from $1,200 to $2,500 depending on property size, foundation type, and system complexity. We provide free estimates and financing options.
Do new homes in Atlanta need radon testing?
Yes. New construction in Atlanta can have elevated radon levels regardless of building codes or construction quality. The underlying geology determines radon risk, not home age. Testing is essential for all properties.
How does radon mitigation work in Atlanta homes?
Most Atlanta homes use sub-slab depressurization—a fan-powered system that pulls radon from beneath the foundation and vents it safely outdoors. Crawl space homes use similar technology with vapor barriers. Systems run continuously and require minimal maintenance.
What's the difference between radon testing and mitigation?
Testing measures radon levels using electronic monitors or charcoal canisters over 48-72 hours. Mitigation is the installation of a system to reduce elevated levels. In Atlanta, testing typically costs $150-250, while mitigation systems range from $1,200-2,500.
Should I test for radon when buying a Atlanta home?
Yes. Radon testing should be part of every Atlanta home inspection. With area averages at 3.5 pCi/L, many homes will require mitigation. Knowing radon levels before closing allows you to negotiate repairs or adjust your offer accordingly.
