What should I do today if my radon system was installed with no follow-up?

Start by testing your home's radon level again. Kentucky residents can request a free short-term test kit from a local health department or through the Kentucky Radon Program. Results take 2 to 90 days, and the new result shows whether the current system is working.

How do I verify a new radon contractor before hiring?

Verify Kentucky Board of Radon Safety certification first. Ask for the professional's name and NRPP certification number. Compare licensed pros who honor warranties and provide documented follow-up, not just installation.

What should the new written quote include?

EPA advises getting an estimate from one or more qualified radon mitigation contractors before hiring. The quote should reflect your home's size, layout and the reduction method needed. Kentucky policy also requires post-installation testing and an ongoing maintenance plan.

What rights do I have if the old system was installed improperly?

Kentucky law authorizes the state radon board to inspect mitigation installations. The board can act if a system was not built or installed to the applicable standards. Keep your old contract and invoices to share with the new pro and the board.

What to do next

  1. Order a free short-term radon test kit from your local health department or the Kentucky Radon Program.
  2. Verify the new pro's Kentucky Board of Radon Safety certification and NRPP certification number before signing.
  3. Get at least one new written estimate that reflects your home's layout and the reduction method needed.
  4. Ask for an invoice showing scope of work, completion date and cost, plus a post-installation test plan.
  5. Call (859) 249-8571 or email [email protected] for a free quote from a Kentucky-certified (NRPP/NRSB) radon mitigation contractor.

Lexington Radon Pros is a free referral service: an independent contractor does the work and may pay us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

Ask for the contractor's name and NRPP certification number, then verify it with the Kentucky Board of Radon Safety. Kentucky law requires mitigators to be certified.

Ask for proof of certification, the NRPP number, and whether post-installation testing is included. Also ask how follow-up and maintenance are handled.
