What should I do this week if I have a radon problem?
Test the home for radon first, because EPA says you should confirm the problem before paying for a fix. Mitigation is recommended when levels are 4 pCi/L or higher. Call (859) 249-8571 to get a free referral to a local pro.
Is a radon fix affordable on a tight budget?
EPA notes that most homes can be fixed for about the cost of other common home repairs. A typical professionally installed system costs about $1,200 to $2,000. Kentucky homes often fall in the low-thousands range rather than remodel-level cost.
What affects the price of my quote?
Price depends on home size, foundation design, crawlspaces, number of floors, and how many suction points or fans are needed. Larger or more complex homes sometimes cost more than $2,500. Ask the pro to itemize these factors in the quote.
What should I check before hiring a contractor?
Confirm the contractor holds Kentucky certification and ask for proof of licence and insurance. Kentucky radon professionals operate under a formal credentialing framework. Compare written quotes before you agree to work.
What to do next
- Order a short-term radon test kit for your Georgetown home and run it for the period on the package.
- If the result is 4 pCi/L or higher, request quotes from at least two local pros.
- Verify the contractor's Kentucky certification on the state radon certification list before signing.
- Ask each pro for a written quote that lists the system type and the total installed price.
