Roughly half of Colorado homes test at or above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L — our Front Range soils are made from the same uranium-bearing granite as the mountains behind them. The fix is straightforward: a quiet, one-day mitigation system, verified with a retest.
Firm written pricing. Systems verified with a follow-up test — you see the before and after.

Why here
The granite of the Rockies is naturally rich in uranium. As the mountains eroded, those minerals became the soils Loveland is built on — from the older neighborhoods near downtown to the newer subdivisions east of I-25. Uranium decays into radon gas, and every heated basement in Northern Colorado acts like a gentle vacuum pulling that gas indoors. Long heating seasons, tight modern construction, and finished basements turn a geological quirk into the leading cause of lung cancer among Colorado nonsmokers. None of this is exotic — it's so routine here that radon testing is a standard line item in nearly every Northern Colorado real estate contract.
Services
Short-term, long-term, and real-estate transaction testing on the 48-hour protocol — the contract deadline is our specialty.
Testing in LovelandSub-slab, sump, and crawlspace systems designed for Northern Colorado foundations — installed in a day, confirmed with a retest.
How mitigation worksRough-ins for builders and passive-stack activations for the new subdivisions from Timnath to Berthoud.
Radon-ready buildsWhat happens when you call
Bring us your test result — or book a test if you don't have one. We'll tell you plainly whether your house needs a system, needs a retest, or needs nothing at all.
Foundation type, pipe route, and fan placement decided with you up front. The number we quote is the number you pay.
Most Loveland homes are done in one working day. After 24 hours of runtime, a verification test shows your new level — in writing.
Service area
From the older blocks around Lake Loveland to new builds in Johnstown and Timnath, the mountain towns up the Big Thompson canyon, and everything between Berthoud and Fort Collins.
Quick answers
Most single-family installs run $1,100–$1,900 depending on foundation type and how the vent routes. Real estate deadlines don't change the price. You'll have a firm written number before any work begins.
Build date doesn't matter; the soil does. New Colorado homes often include a passive radon rough-in, which helps but frequently isn't enough on Front Range soils. Test it — if it's high, activating the existing stack with a fan is quick and inexpensive.
It's real: the EPA ties about 21,000 U.S. lung-cancer deaths a year to radon, the top cause among never-smokers. Colorado's rates of elevated homes are among the highest anywhere. The good news is it's also one of the most fixable risks a house can have.
Breathe. This is one of the most common inspection findings in Larimer County, and one of the cheapest major ones to resolve. A system installs within days and the retest lands before closing. Tell us your deadline first and we'll schedule backwards from it.
