Coralville and Johnson County
Coralville routes through our Johnson County territory with Iowa City, North Liberty, and Tiffin. EPA places Johnson County in Zone 1 on its Map of Radon Zones. Iowa certifies radon professionals through the state health department — an Iowa-specific credential you verify directly.
If the result surfaced in a transaction
The local market blends university-employee family moves and metro relocations, and radon testing is standard inspection practice. Iowa sellers disclose known radon information on the state form; the remedy is negotiated. In newer sections, checking for a passive rough-in is the useful first step.

The housing you’re mitigating
Mid-century neighborhoods bring ranches and split-levels on block or early poured foundations with sump pits common. Newer development is modern poured construction with deep basements, attached garages, and frequent passive rough-ins. Split-levels deserve zone-by-zone quotes naming every foundation section.

Coralville questions, answered straight
How does mitigation work on a split-level?
By treating the house as its zones. A design typically draws from beneath the basement slab and, where diagnostics justify it, adds a second suction point under the slab-on-grade section or a membrane over any crawl area — often all on one fan. Watch for a quote that skips a zone.
What does activating a passive pipe cost versus a full system?
Activation — adding a rated in-line fan, a system indicator, and the verification test — is typically the least expensive path because the pipe already exists. Ask bidders to quote it specifically as an activation so they price the right scope.
How quickly should we act on a 9 pCi/L result?
Promptly rather than frantically. Radon risk accrues over years, so acting within weeks is genuinely responsive. What the timeline does not support is ignoring a confirmed elevated result — or letting urgency stampede you past comparing two written quotes.
