Radon Testing and Mitigation in Macomb County
Elevate Radon Defense provides residential and commercial radon services across Macomb County. From professional testing and property-specific mitigation to existing system inspections and repairs, our team helps property owners understand the issue and move forward with a plan.
Based in Mount Clemens, we serve homeowners, homebuyers, sellers, business owners, landlords, and property managers throughout the area. Every service begins with careful evaluation, clear guidance, and recommendations based on the building.
Complete Radon Support for Local Properties
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter a building from the soil below it. It cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted, so testing is the only way to determine the indoor level.
Michigan EGLE reports that elevated results have been found across every county in the state and warns that nearby homes can produce very different readings. A map, building age, or neighbor’s result cannot replace testing inside your property.
Elevate Radon Defense offers three connected services in Macomb County:
- Radon testing for homes, businesses, and real estate transactions
- Radon mitigation planned around the property
- Radon system inspection, maintenance, and repair
Professional Radon Testing
A test provides the starting point for any informed radon decision. We place the measurement device in an appropriate location, explain the conditions that should be maintained, and review the result with you after the testing period.
Testing may be appropriate during a sale, after major renovations, before using a basement as living space, or when a building has never been measured. It is also important for properties with active or passive mitigation systems.
The EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or higher and considering action between 2 and 4 pCi/L.
Property-Specific Radon Mitigation
An elevated result does not mean every property needs the same system. Foundation type, sump areas, slabs, crawl spaces, additions, available pipe routes, and the location of occupied rooms can all influence system planning.
Our team evaluates accessible building conditions before recommending a solution. A typical system may draw soil gas from beneath the structure and discharge it outdoors before it can accumulate inside.
We explain the proposed suction points, pipe route, fan location, discharge area, and follow-up process. Post-installation testing is then used to measure the indoor level and help evaluate system performance.
Existing System Inspection and Repair
A mitigation system can require service as it ages. Fans may stop, pipes or supports can become damaged, seals may deteriorate, and changes to a basement or foundation can affect the original installation.
We inspect accessible components and explain any apparent concerns. Service may involve fan replacement, pipe repair, resealing, warning-device review, or another correction based on the system’s condition.
A normal-looking manometer does not measure radon concentration. Michigan EGLE recommends testing every two years, including in homes with mitigation systems, because only a radon test can show the current indoor level.
Local Radon Service Across Macomb County
Our office is located in Mount Clemens, allowing us to support communities throughout Macomb County with a local, responsive approach. We regularly assist clients in areas such as Warren, Sterling Heights, Clinton Township, Shelby Township, Macomb Township, Roseville, St. Clair Shores, and nearby communities.
The area includes older housing, newer developments, waterfront communities, and commercial corridors. We evaluate each building individually instead of assuming one design will work everywhere.
Lake St. Clair, the Clinton River, Lake St. Clair Metropark, Stony Creek Metropark, and Wolcott Mill Metropark are familiar local landmarks. They help define the area, but they cannot indicate the radon level inside an individual building.
A Clear Process From Testing to Follow-Up
1. Tell Us What You Need
Let us know whether you need an initial test, real estate measurement, mitigation evaluation, or help with an existing system. We gather available details about the building and any previous results.
2. Evaluate the Property
For testing, we select an appropriate measurement location and explain the conditions required. For mitigation or repair, we review accessible foundation areas, system components, and practical installation routes.
3. Review the Findings
We explain the measured level, observed system condition, or recommended design in straightforward terms. You have an opportunity to ask questions before deciding how to proceed.
4. Complete the Work and Follow Up
Our team performs the approved testing, installation, or repair. We then explain any follow-up testing, retesting, or monitoring considerations.
Residential and Commercial Services
Homeowners often contact us after a real estate test, before finishing a basement, or when an existing fan stops operating. We also work with buyers and sellers who need clear information within a transaction timeline.
Commercial properties may have larger footprints or several foundation sections. We help owners and managers select an appropriate testing or mitigation approach.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Know Whether My Property Should Be Tested?
Any home or occupied building can have elevated radon, regardless of age or foundation style. Testing is especially useful when a property has never been measured, is involved in a sale, has been renovated, or has an existing mitigation system.
What Happens if the Result Is 4 pCi/L or Higher?
The EPA recommends fixing a home when the confirmed result is 4 pCi/L or higher. We can explain the result and discuss whether confirmation testing or a mitigation evaluation is the appropriate next step.
Can You Test During a Real Estate Transaction?
Yes. We work with buyers, sellers, agents, and property representatives who need a professional measurement during a transaction. Contact us early so the testing period can fit the inspection and closing schedule.
Can You Repair a System Installed by Another Company?
Yes. We can evaluate accessible components of an existing system and recommend testing, repair, replacement, or further investigation based on what we observe.
Which Communities Do You Serve?
We provide service throughout Macomb County, including Mount Clemens, Warren, Sterling Heights, Clinton Township, Shelby Township, Macomb Township, Roseville, and St. Clair Shores. Contact us to confirm scheduling for your location.
What Happens if My Result Is High?
We explain the result and discuss suitable next steps. Depending on the measurement and property, that may include confirmation testing, a mitigation evaluation, or inspection of an existing system.
