Farley and Dubuque County
Farley routes through our Dubuque County territory alongside Epworth, Dyersville, Peosta, and Cascade. EPA places Dubuque County in Zone 1 on its Map of Radon Zones, consistent with all of Iowa. Iowa certifies radon professionals through the state health department.
If the result surfaced in a transaction
Transactions here are infrequent and often involve long-held property, which means inspection findings frequently surface facts nobody had measured. Iowa sellers disclose known radon information on the state form; nothing requires a seller to fix an elevated result.

The housing you’re mitigating
Expect older homes on block and brick foundations with partial basements and crawl areas, plus newer construction on poured walls with sump systems. Surrounding farm properties bring mixed-foundation farmhouses and private wells, raising a separate radon-in-water question from the airborne test.

Farley questions, answered straight
How long does installation take?
One working day for most homes: core the suction point, dig a small pit beneath it, run and seal pipe to above the roofline, mount the fan, seal accessible entry routes, install the manometer. The verification retest follows a few days later.
Our house has a dirt-floor section. Fixable?
Yes. Exposed soil is a direct entry path, and the standard treatment lays a sealed durable membrane over it with suction drawn beneath — typically tied into the same fan serving the rest of the foundation. Confirm the quote names that area.
How often should we retest after mitigation?
EPA recommends every two years, and after anything that could change the picture — foundation work, major renovation, or a manometer reading that looks wrong. Retests are inexpensive and confirm the system is still doing its job.
