"We are purchasing a home east of Tramway and our buyer's agent provided us three options for a home inspector.  We selected WIN Home Inspection.  The key for a home inspector is that he has to work for you, and not the buyer or seller realtor.  Paul's level of independence, knowledge, thoroughness was very much appreciated.  During the inspection, he not only pointed out issues that would be called out in the final report, but also encouraged us to ask questions about each area to learn about our new house.  The final report provided a detailed list of issues clearly identified as to severity. <br /> We also requested a radon test.  When he discovered the house would be open during the planned test period, he rescheduled the test to a time when he knew the house would be vacant and the results would be reliable - even though this resulted in two additional trips to the property. <br /> One issue was so severe we requested the sellers to fix before settlement and Paul to re-inspect.   We needed to do this quickly as resolution of this issue was putting the planned settlement date at risk.  Paul made time to complete the re-inspection so we could move forward with settlement and also provided photos of the repairs and answered some of our followup questions."

"Sandia Home Inspections was able to set up the radon test, without me even having to be there, which was great! They were able to perform the test with a short notice and I had my report promptly. I also like the fact that the test was broken down into time increments, and that they were willing to discuss the test with me. I would recommend them to anyone needing testing done at their home or business."

"I used CERL on a number of mold inspections and for testing. They did great at providing results needed and going general inspections prior to home purchase. My only recommendation is to call CERL to review the report with them as they are difficult to understand and they are careful how they word things as they have to be careful working in Santa Fe with some much property bought and sold. I plan to use them for future testing that I will need done. I feel they are the best in town and well work the cost of the mold inspection to know what your purchasing."

"Louis & Co were fine. I liked them. They were competent. Radon testing can sometimes be a big scam. I know sometimes need to do the radon mitigation before their bankers will give them a mortgage. But as far as radon goes, that's a big scam, as far as I'm concerned. But Louis & Co were fine and did a good job. It was relatively expensive, for what they did, but they were competent and honest."

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Albuquerque, NM

Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. The gas seeps through cracks in foundations and collects in basements and other low areas. Once you breathe it in, radioactive particles lodge in lung tissue and do long-term damage. Because you can’t see or smell radon, the EPA recommends testing your home every two years—and after major renovations—to keep your family safe.

Yes—every home should be tested. The EPA advises doing it at least every two years and any time you remodel, buy, or sell. On average, one in 15 houses nationwide sits above the recommended limit, and the only way to know where yours stands is a formal test. The equipment simply measures gas levels and won’t change your indoor environment, so the process is completely harmless.

Certified radon professionals—often home inspectors or dedicated radon mitigation contractors—handle testing. These radon testing professionals follow EPA protocols and use calibrated instruments to check levels throughout your house. Hiring a certified radon specialist means results you can trust for real estate deals, insurance requirements, and, most importantly, your family’s health.

Inspectors specialize in measuring radon gas levels, while licensed mitigation contractors design and install the systems that remove it. If your test comes back high, your inspector can point you to a qualified mitigation pro who will size and install the right fan, piping, or other equipment to bring levels down.

No—standard home air purifiers don’t touch radon. They’re built to trap dust and pollen, not radioactive gas. If testing shows high levels, you’ll need a dedicated mitigation system that vents the gas from beneath your home to the outdoors. Relying on a room purifier alone won’t keep your indoor air safe.

Opening a few windows in your home might dilute radon for a short time, but the gas seeps back in as soon as they’re closed. For a lasting fix, you’ll need a professional mitigation system—often a sub-slab depressurization fan—that pulls radon from beneath the foundation and safely vents it outside.
