When you walk into your potential new home—whether it’s in Marietta, Kennesaw, Rockmart, or right here in Metro Atlanta—you’re probably checking out the layout, imagining where the couch will go, or thinking about what color to paint the kitchen.

But there’s something you won’t see. You won’t smell it. You won’t feel it.

And yet—it could be putting your family at risk.

We’re talking about radon—a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can seep into homes and increase the risk of lung cancer over time.

What is Radon, and Why Should You Care?

Radon forms in the soil beneath our feet. In areas like Canton, Powder Springs, and Carrollton, it’s not uncommon for this gas to find its way through cracks in foundations or gaps around plumbing into your home’s air.

Once inside, radon builds up—especially in basements and lower levels.

According to the EPA, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. The only way to know if it’s in your home? A simple test.

Why Radon Testing Should Be Part of Your Inspection

During your buyer’s inspection with Sharp Eye Inspections, we can set up a continuous radon monitor—a high-tech, EPA-recommended test that measures radon levels over a 48-hour period.

In one recent inspection in Smyrna, our team placed a radon test at the buyer’s request. The results came back with elevated levels that required mitigation. The buyers were able to negotiate with the seller to cover the installation of a radon mitigation system—a win-win for both sides.

It was one decision… that could’ve saved lives.

Don’t Skip It, Especially in Georgia

Here in the Metro and West Metro Atlanta area, radon isn’t rare. Homes in Kennesaw, Marietta, Rockmart, and beyond have been shown to have elevated levels. And since you can’t see or smell radon, it’s easy to miss unless you test.

For just a small additional fee, you can gain serious peace of mind.
