Radon mitigation quotes in Minneapolis
Minneapolis housing is dominated by early-twentieth-century construction — the bungalows, four-squares, and duplexes that fill neighborhoods from Northeast through South Minneapolis — with newer infill and condo development layered in.
Minnesota is a high-radon state and the city tests accordingly. We introduce Minneapolis homeowners to independent, MDH-licensed mitigation contractors for free quotes.
Minneapolis and Hennepin County
Minneapolis sits in Hennepin County, and its residential ZIP codes route through our Hennepin territory, which also covers St. Louis Park, Golden Valley, Hopkins, Minnetonka, and Brooklyn Center. EPA places Hennepin County in Zone 1. Minnesota licenses radon professionals through the Department of Health — verify that license.
If the result surfaced in a transaction
Under Minnesota’s Radon Awareness Act, sellers disclose known radon information and provide the MDH radon publication before a purchase agreement is signed. Nothing requires testing or mitigation. Duplex and small multi-unit sales are common here, and ground-contact units are where testing matters most.

The housing you’re mitigating
Expect block, brick, and occasionally stone foundations under the pre-war stock, with full basements — many finished across decades — plus porch crawl spaces and additions. Finished basements make routing the central quote conversation. Newer infill is conventional poured construction with straightforward single-point designs.

Minneapolis questions, answered straight
Our basement is fully finished. Will installation tear it up?
Usually not, when routing is planned before installation day. Contractors typically core the suction point in an unfinished utility or mechanical area and route pipe through closets, a chase, or an exterior wall. Ask each bidder to walk the route with you at the quote stage — that conversation decides how these projects go.
We own a duplex. One system or two?
Usually one properly designed system — soil gas enters through the shared foundation, so a licensed contractor designs suction for the building footprint and verifies with tests in the ground-contact units. Keep written records; Minnesota disclosure covers known radon information when you sell.
What should a complete Minneapolis quote include?
Suction-point count and locations, routing path, fan make and model with placement, sealing scope, a manometer, electrical responsibility, warranty terms, the post-mitigation verification test, and the contractor’s MDH license number.
