Short-term radon test in Holland Township

A 48-hour closed-house test at the lowest lived-in level, placed and read by a New Jersey certified measurement business. The number everything else follows from.

If you are looking into short-term radon test in Holland Township, what the building sits on is the place to start.

What people describe first

  • You finished a basement and want to know what you have been sitting in
  • A previous test was done years ago and you have since changed the heating or the ventilation
  • A buyer or a lender has asked for a radon test before closing

Why this comes up in Holland Township

Holland sits almost wholly outside public supply. A well here draws from the rock along the Newark Basin–Musconetcong transition, which changes character across the township. That is part of the context any crew working in Holland Township has to design around.

Holland Township — the state's own numbers

43% of the 815 test results NJDEP holds for Holland Township were at or above the 4.0 pCi/L action level — 352 of them. That puts it in Tier 1 — high potential.

Holland Township is a rural township on the Delaware in the northwest corner of the county, opposite Riegelsville, and that shapes what a system here has to be designed around.

What access looks like here

Large rural lots with room to work, though river-road properties can be tight against the road and the bank.

Construction permits go through Holland Township, and installing radon mitigation for a fee anywhere in New Jersey requires NJDEP certification.

What the work involves

A short-term test means a sealed-house condition for at least 48 hours with a continuous monitor or a pair of charcoal detectors placed at the lowest lived-in level. The house has to stay closed the whole time, which is the part that most often invalidates a result. In New Jersey the placement and the reading both have to be done by a certified measurement business for the result to count in a real-estate transaction.

Typical cost in Hunterdon County, NJ

$150 – $325 — typical range, not a quote. What your building needs can only be settled by a certified business that measures it on site.

Nobody can tell you what yours needs from a description alone, including us.

New Jersey requires certification for this

Measurement is certified separately from mitigation. Under N.J.A.C. 7:28-27, testing for radon for a fee in New Jersey requires NJDEP certification as a radon measurement business. A crew certified to install systems is not thereby certified to place and read the detectors. We only route this work to businesses we have checked on the measurement side.

Have a result you don't know what to do with?

One description is enough. We'll send it to certified local crews and leave the decision entirely with you.
