A continuous monitor on the lowest level that could be used regularly, read every hour for at least 48 hours. The written result comes the day we collect it.
4.9 rating, over 4,000 reviews NRSB-certified technicians Serving Carroll County
A radon test in Westminster 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. The price covers one Westminster residence; provide unit and keyholder details.
Day 1
Drop-off
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
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
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.

Carroll County is EPA Zone 1; a Westminster result must come from the selected home.
The Westminster National Register District includes much of the older town and buildings dating from the late 1700s onward. That range is district context only. Downtown, The Forks and surrounding neighborhoods should be prepared from their present layouts, with current and planned lower-room use explained to the technician. For an East Main Street apartment, give the residential entrance, floor and unit rather than only the storefront address. At The Forks, an owner planning a lower-level guest room should mention that future regular use even if the room is empty. A downtown seller should keep painters, movers and repair crews out of the measurement window and arrange the same dependable keyholder for both visits. In surrounding neighborhoods, occupants can use exterior doors normally for brief entry and exit while preserving the required closed conditions. If a window is opened or the monitor is disturbed, note when it happened and tell the technician. The report belongs to the tested residence and should not be treated as a reading for another unit in the building.
