Radon Gas Testing Across Michigan
Radon is odorless, colorless, and the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Michigan homes are commonly affected, and you cannot tell without testing.
Radon is present in trace amounts in the atmosphere but can seep into your home through cracks in the foundation, floors, or walls, especially in Michigan homes with basements or crawl spaces.
At Comprehensive Property Inspection LLC, we provide professional Radon Gas Testing using continuous monitoring technology that delivers fast, reliable results in just 48 hours.
A Real Risk in Michigan Homes
Michigan sits in a region with naturally elevated radon potential. Finished basements, common across Southeast Michigan, can trap radon at levels well above what is considered safe. Testing is the only way to know.
How Radon Testing Works
- Calibrated monitor placed in the lowest livable level
- Minimum 48-hour continuous test period
- Clear reading measured against EPA action levels.
- Guidance on next steps if levels are elevated
Why It Matters: Why You Cannot Just Guess
Radon levels vary from house to house, and even from room to room, based on soil, foundation type, and ventilation. The EPA's action level is 4.0 picocuries per liter. There is no way to know where your home falls without testing, and neighboring homes can post very different readings even on the same street. Testing is inexpensive, quick, and removes the guesswork entirely.
Signs You May Need This Now
- You are buying a home with a finished or livable basement
- The home has never been tested or was tested more than two years ago
- You are planning renovations that will change ventilation or airflow
- You simply want a healthy home for your family, with no guessing involved
What Michigan Homeowners Should Know About Radon
It Enters Through the Foundation
Radon seeps up through foundation cracks, sump pump openings, and gaps around utility penetrations.
Finished Basements Trap It
A finished basement can hold radon at higher concentrations than an unfinished one with more airflow.
Levels Can Change Seasonally
Colder months often show higher readings since homes are sealed up tighter.
New Homes Are Not Automatically Safe
Radon potential comes from the soil, not the age or quality of construction.
Neighbors Can Differ Significantly
Two homes on the same street can post very different readings based on soil and foundation type.
Mitigation Is Common & Affordable
A mitigation system is a standard, well-understood solution relative to the health risk it addresses.

Elevated levels are treatable with a mitigation system. We will walk you through what the reading means and your next steps.
Yes. Radon testing is commonly added to a full home inspection, or booked on its own.
Nearly all homes have some measurable level. The question is whether it is above the EPA action level of 4.0 picocuries per liter.
You can buy a retail kit, but a professional test placed and monitored correctly is what most lenders and real estate transactions require.
It can. Homes are typically more sealed up in colder months, which is actually a good time to test since it reflects normal living conditions.
Yes. Radon comes from the soil, not the building, so a brand-new home can test just as high as an older one.
Closed house conditions are actually part of the standard testing protocol, since it reflects how the home is normally used.
