Radon is one of those things most homeowners never think about until it becomes a problem. It’s a naturally occurring gas that forms from the breakdown of uranium in the soil, and it’s completely invisible and odorless. You can’t see it, smell it, or taste it, but it can be dangerous if levels are too high inside your home.
In places like Ottawa, Wellsville, and Pomona, radon is more common than many people realize. Our soil in Franklin County can produce higher levels of radon, especially in older homes with basements or crawl spaces. That’s why we offer radon testing as part of what we do at Gordon and Associates. It’s a small step that gives you peace of mind about something you can’t detect on your own.
We’ve been serving homeowners across Kansas for years, and one of the most common things we hear is, “I had no idea this was even a thing.” That’s why we believe in keeping testing simple, affordable, and honest. No scare tactics. Just clear information about what’s happening in your home.
If you’ve never had your home tested, or if you’re buying a property in Ottawa or anywhere nearby, it’s worth checking. We use a small monitor that sits in the lowest livable level of your home for about 48 hours. After that, we send you a clear, easy-to-read report. If the levels come back elevated, we’ll walk you through your options. We don’t do radon mitigation, so there’s no upselling, just guidance.
Most people never think twice about the air they’re breathing inside their own home. A simple radon test helps make sure it’s safe. It’s one of those things that’s easy to put off until later, but the sooner you check, the sooner you can stop worrying about it.
We’re based right here in Ottawa and we’re proud to serve families all across Franklin County. If you’re ready to schedule your radon test or just have questions, give us a call. We’re happy to help.
