Testing for an invisible, odorless gas that's the second leading cause of lung cancer — so you know your home is safe before you ever move in.
Radon is a colorless, odorless radioactive gas that occurs naturally in the soil and can seep into a home through the foundation, crawl space, and other ground-level entry points. It's completely undetectable by the senses — the only way to know whether a home has elevated levels is to test for it. Radon testing from Holland Home Inspections measures the level present so you know exactly where the home stands.
Radon is common across Kentucky, where local geology makes elevated levels widespread. Because radon enters from the ground up, it tends to be most concentrated in basements and lower levels — exactly the areas where families spend time and where the gas can accumulate over time if the home isn't properly addressed.
Matt Holland sets up the test, monitors the levels, and explains the results in plain language — so you understand whether the home is within a safe range or whether mitigation should be considered. Testing during your inspection means you have the facts before you commit, not after.
Because radon is undetectable without testing, it's the kind of risk that's easy to overlook — right up until it becomes a serious, long-term health concern. Prolonged exposure to elevated radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, behind only smoking. Since elevated radon is widespread across this region, testing during your inspection gives you the facts you need to protect the people who matter most before you ever move in.
Every Holland inspection is delivered with the same standard Matt holds himself to: thorough, honest, and clearly explained. No rushed walkthroughs, no glossed-over findings, and a detailed, easy-to-understand report — delivered in less than 24 hours, so you have what you need when it matters most.
