"Ross called back within 30 minutes and set up an appointment for the same week at my convenience. He was extremely professional and very easy to work with. He was on time both time he had to be in my home. I had my results in my email within a few hours of him picking up the sensors. I truly appreciate his time and explanations. I would definitely recommend Ross and Boomtown Radon Testing without hesitation."

"Radon Tec worked with me on a reinspection after mitigation. They understood my time demands and that I was living out of state. They completed task on time and on estimate price. Tech even forwarded invoice/results to the closing to give everyone a chance to review documents before closing. I would give a higher rating if I could."

"Mat is the inspector realtors hate... tongue-in-cheek. He is extremely knowledgeable, has great attention to detail, and is very honest. If there is something wrong with the property, you better believe he's going to find it. He takes the time and does a thorough job. I highly recommend him!"

"The guys came out within a day or two of my initial call and spent quite a bit of time explaining what they would do. They were patient and seemed very knowledgeable. Their solution involved routing the exhaust through the garage and garage attic and out the roof, which would be much more attractive and less subject to weather extremes than routing the exhaust pipe along the exterior of the house. After I gave them the go ahead, they were able to schedule the work within 1-2 weeks. They arrived on time and were very efficient, finishing a little earlier than I had expected. In addition to the radon remediation they patched a foundation crack for considerably less money than companies that specialize in foundation repair."

"My wife and I were really happy that we went with BRT for both our home inspection and the radon test. Dave handled our inspection, and was incredibly thorough. He got there early, and covered the whole whole house (including physically going up on the roof). He took tons of pictures for the report and explained what his concerns were as we went through. He also noted things that he couldn't call out in the report, but suggested we may want to address on our own. We were nervous going in with the house as there were visible cracks in the basement, but ended up purchasing after considering Dave's expert advice on the severity of the issues on his assumptions on repair costs. Additionally, the contractors we called ended up quoting their repair prices right around the same amount Dave suggested it would cost. Dave was super nice and extremely professional the whole time, he even went back a week after our initial inspection to recheck some electrical issues he called out that the sellers had fixed on their own. It was also convenient having the radon test done by the same company. And the test helped us identify high levels of radon in the house. We ended up purchasing a mitigation system, which has greatly reduce the radon level in the house. Adding the radon test increased the overall fee by $200 ($200 for Radon, $400 for inspection). For those on the fence about getting a radon test, I'd recommend it, as it's worth the price. All in all, were extremely satisfied with the value we got for the money, and will be recommending BRT to any friends and family that are purchasing a house in the future. It will also be the first place we call next time we move."

"A++ service. Mike performed an excellent job testing a house we are in the process of purchasing in addition to the Radon testing. We found him to be personable, straight forward, detailed, honest and informative. Each area of concern, Mike provided clear details for the rating given which included pictures with arrows pointing to the exact location. Overall process went smoothly. Would gladly hire again in the future and/or provide as a reference."

"Jim was very professional.  He emailed me and called me right back when I was trying to contact him for pricing/availability.  He came out to the house during the inspection, was early, and setup the equipment.  He told me that he had to turn the heat up to accommodate the readings and to ensure quality results.  Within 2 days he had a report emailed to us - as guaranteed/expected - and we were able to say that the house was at a low level for radon and passed with flying colors. <br />"

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Schaumburg, IL

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.
