Radon Testing Radon Inspection | Based in Morganville Monmouth County NJ

Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of naturally occurring uranium in soil and rock. It is invisible, odorless, and tasteless, and can only be detected by specialized Radon tests. Radon enters homes through openings that are in contact with the ground, such as cracks in the foundation, small openings around pipes, and sump pits. The bottom line is, Radon Testing and Inspection are extremely important! Jersey Strong Home Inspection is local to Morganville NJ and proudly offers the top certified radon inspections throughout Monmouth and the surrounding Middlesex, Union, Somerset, Essex, Ocean, and Morris counties. *Jersey Strong is also fully certified for testing in Multi-family, Non-residential, School Buildings, and Large Commercial Buildings, in addition to single-family homes.

Like other radioactive materials, radon undergoes radioactive decay that forms decay products. Radon and its decay products release radioactive energy that can damage lung tissue in a way that causes the early stages of lung cancer.

The more radon you are exposed to, and the longer the exposure, the greater the risk of eventually developing lung cancer you have. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, resulting in 15,000 to 22,000 deaths per year.

High Levels Of Radon Are Found Throughout NJ 

Although the higher levels of Radon are indicated in Northern, and parts of central New Jersey, we have found high levels in parts of Freehold, Monroe, South River, Belle Meade, and other areas of New Jersey. See the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Map here.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) recommends that all NJ homes be tested for radon.

Jersey Strong Home Inspection can provide Radon Testing to Monmouth County, as well as all of Central NJ as a part of your home inspection or as a stand-alone service. The test canister is left at the property for 2-5 days and then sent to a lab for analysis. Results are sent to you immediately upon receipt.
