Radon

Radon is a radioactive gas that seeps into buildings from the ground below through cracks or openings in the foundation. Prolonged human exposure to high levels of radon increases the risk for the development of lung cancer. RiskCheck’s radon consultants are certified by the Canadian – National Radon Proficiency Program (C-NRPP).

Our Services Include:
