Radon in Construction Materials
Post-construction testing of building materials for radon content when standard air testing and mitigation cannot pinpoint elevated radon sources.
Concrete & Cement
Testing concrete blocks, cement, and masonry materials for radon content.
Stone & Aggregate
Analysis of natural stone, gravel, and aggregate materials used in construction.
Building Materials
Comprehensive testing of various building materials and components.
Post-Construction Analysis
Evaluation of materials in occupied or ready-to-occupy homes as a last resort diagnostic tool.
When is Construction Material Testing Needed?
Construction material testing is performed only post-construction when a home is ready to be occupied or already occupied.
This specialized testing is used as a last case scenario after standard radon air testing and standard mitigation techniques could not pinpoint the source or effectively treat elevated radon levels.
Some construction materials, particularly those containing natural stone, concrete, or certain aggregates, can contain naturally occurring radioactive materials that emit radon. Our in-house laboratory processes and analyzes all material samples the same day they are collected for expedited results.
Common Materials Tested:
- • Granite and natural stone
- • Concrete blocks and precast panels
