What our customers say

From our customer reviews.

They conducted the test right away and kept me informed every step of the way.

They arrived the day after I called, on time, set up the Radon test and left within 5 minutes.

Everything was handled so professionally, quickly and so easy to have our house tested for radon.

They found elevated radon in the home and numerous issues on the home inspection report which were remedied before I moved in.

Great service, very thorough inspection and highlighted items in a very approachable and organized manner.

How much does radon testing cost in Bowie?

A radon test in Bowie is $185, or $175 when it is added to a home inspection. That is the whole price: both visits, the monitor for the full 48 hours, and the written report with every hourly reading in it. Residential pricing applies to one Bowie home or unit. Mention association entry, a tenant or an accessory dwelling before scheduling. Tell family members, cleaners and maintenance staff the collection date so routine activity does not relocate or cover the equipment.

Day 1

Drop-off

We place the monitor

A technician places it on the lowest level that could be used regularly, following EPA placement limits and the intended use of the space, inside a two-hour arrival window. With a home inspection, placement happens during the inspection visit.

48 hours

The house stays closed

The monitor does the work

For a short-term real-estate test, EPA guidance calls for closed-building conditions for at least 12 hours before the test and throughout the measurement. Windows stay closed, exterior doors open only for normal entry and exit, and the monitor logs hourly readings that help document the test conditions during the minimum 48-hour measurement.

Day 3

Pick-up and report

We collect it, read it, and write it up

A technician picks the monitor up in another two-hour window and pulls the full record on the spot. The written report reaches you the same day.

NRSB-certified technicians. Our own team, certified by the National Radon Safety Board, not a subcontractor.

EPA testing guidance. Placement, closed-house conditions and the 48-hour minimum follow it, and your average is read against the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L.

Continuous monitors. Airthings Corentium Pro instruments, logging every hour for the whole test.

Appointment times are requests until our team confirms them. What the number means, how to prepare the property and the eight questions everyone asks are on the radon testing page; this page is about Bowie.

Radon testing for Bowie homes and townhouses

Bowie homeowners and buyers need a result from the residence itself. A Prince George's County map or a neighbor's reading cannot tell you the indoor radon level in an Old Town house, a Belair-area home or a townhouse. Describe the lowest room that is or could be used regularly, including a basement office, bedroom or family area planned after purchase. The technician can then choose a suitable measurement location for that home's layout.

To schedule a Bowie radon test, provide the full address and a contact who can open the home for monitor placement and collection. The measurement lasts at least 48 hours. Residents should follow closed-house instructions and leave the device where it was placed. If a property includes a separately occupied lower unit, say so before booking; a standard appointment is for one dwelling. Buyers should share their contract deadline early enough to allow for the written report.

Townhouses and condos

We only perform testing, not mitigation.

We do not install radon systems, so we have nothing to gain from your number. If the result is at or above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L, you choose who fixes it. Once the system is in, we can test again and tell you what it reads.

Before you book in Maryland

Maryland's residential disclosure framework includes radon among the hazardous or regulated materials covered by an owner's actual knowledge for certain single-family residential property of four or fewer units. The statute has enumerated exemptions and does not itself require a radon test. County and municipal requirements may differ, so check the rules for the property's location and type before relying on an existing result.

Radon testing in Bowie, answered straight

Can a Bowie neighbor's radon test answer for my home?

No. Radon readings can differ between residences. Test the Bowie house or unit you own or plan to buy to learn its indoor level.

Where will the monitor go in a Bowie house?

Tell the technician about the lowest room used or suitable for regular use, including one a buyer plans to occupy. The technician selects the location under the testing protocol.

Can a lower apartment share the main home's result?

Tell us about a separately occupied apartment before booking. A standard appointment measures one dwelling; another unit may need its own scope, access and price.

How much time should a Bowie buyer allow?

Allow for placement, at least 48 hours of measurement, collection and the written report. Give the testing team your contract deadline when requesting dates.
