Seven out of every ten homes in Iowa are estimated to have dangerous levels of radon. Radon is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless radioactive gas that can present a serious health hazard for you and your family. This gas is released through the natural decay of thorium and uranium, which are common, naturally occurring elements found in varying amounts of rock, soil, and water across the United States.nnSince 2008, Sir Build-A-Lot provides the West Des Moines area with complete radon testing and treatment. We take thorough radon measurements of your home, and then we mitigate it to the EPA recommended level of 4.0 or lower. nnTo find out if your family is at risk schedule your appointment with a trained professional at Sir Build-A-Lot.
