Protect your home with professional radon mitigation solutions.
Protecting your family from radon gas is our top priority. As a leading residential radon mitigation company, we provide comprehensive solutions to make your home safe. Our services include professional residential radon testing and custom-designed mitigation systems that permanently solve your radon problem.
Why Is Residential Radon Mitigation Essential?
Radon is an invisible and odorless radioactive gas that poses a serious threat to your health. It is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, and it can build up to dangerous levels in any home. Due to Colorado’s specific geology, a significant percentage of homes have elevated radon levels, making residential radon mitigation an essential service for protecting your family.
- Invisible Threat: You can't see, smell, or taste radon, making it impossible to detect without a professional test.
- Health Risks: Long-term exposure to radon can cause serious health issues, including lung cancer.
- Colorado's High-Risk Zones: Our state's soil composition and pressure differentials in homes make it a high-risk area for radon intrusion.
The Importance of Professional Residential Radon Testing
The first and most critical step in addressing radon is a professional test. While DIY kits exist, they can be unreliable. Our residential radon testing services use accurate equipment and follow strict protocols to provide you with a precise measurement of your home’s radon levels. We offer fast, reliable testing and provide clear, actionable results, giving you the peace of mind of knowing your home’s true radon risk.
Our Residential Mitigation Solutions
At Better Colorado Radon, we utilize proven techniques to safely and effectively remove radon from your home. Our systems are custom-designed based on your property’s specific structure to ensure maximum effectiveness. Each system is installed with precision by certified professionals who take the time to ensure proper airflow, sealing, and long-term performance—giving you lasting peace of mind and cleaner, safer air for your family.
Don't Wait to Make Your Home Safe
Radon can’t be seen or smelled—but testing now can make all the difference. Quick scheduling, certified results, and long-term protection start with one call.
Sub-Slab Depressurization System (SSDS)
This is the most common technique for homes with a concrete slab or basement. We create a small collection zone beneath the foundation to draw out radon gas using a depressurization pipe and fan. The gas is then vented safely outside and away from your home. This method is highly effective and permanently reduces radon levels.
Sub-Membrane Depressurization System (SMDS)
For homes with crawl spaces or dirt floors, we use a sub-membrane system. We install a durable plastic barrier over the exposed ground, sealing it to prevent gas from entering. A pipe is placed beneath this membrane to vent the radon away. This method not only mitigates radon but also helps with moisture control and improving overall air quality in your crawl space.
Combined System
Some properties may require a combination of both an SSDS and SMDS to effectively mitigate radon, particularly if the home has both a basement and a crawl space. Our experts will assess your property and recommend the most effective solution.

Happy Customers
Kelly DonahueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I feel so blessed that Better Colorado Radon, owner Ryan Osborne, came to my house and submitted a quote to install the radon system and reline my crawl space. I had (3) other companies submit quotes, all wanted to go through my closest and adapt the fan on the exterior of my home. Also, none of these companies felt that the plastic in my crawl space needed to be replaced? Ryan surveyed my property and explained the best possible resolution for my home. He recommended we reline the crawl space and install the unit in the garage. Once his team arrived I knew this project was going to be seamless. Very professional, attention to detail, informative and just a pleasure to have around. I now feel an incredible amount of "peace" in the air I breathe in my home. Because I know the job was done right. Thank you so very much! Aminta LuceroTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were in a tough spot with a radon system that another company just couldn’t figure out—right before closing on a home sale. Thankfully, Ryan and his team stepped in and completely saved the day. Not only did they diagnose and fix the issue quickly, but Ryan was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process. His response time was seriously impressive, and he made a stressful situation so much easier to manage. I highly recommend this company to anyone needing radon services. Professional, reliable, and truly above and beyond! Kailee AckermanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Better Colorado Radon has been a pleasure to work with. They were actually recommended to me by another large prominent radon company in the Denver area to assist with a smaller project I encountered with a client's real estate transaction. Better Colorado Radon was so responsive, did quality work, and charged a very fair price that I ended up hiring them for a full system install on my personal property. They will be my go-to radon mitigation company from now on. Eric LoveridgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had to replace our sump pump that was combined with our radon mitigation system in a sealed floor cavity in our basement. For a reasonable price, Ryan from Better Colorado Radon came out and replaced the pump and resealed everything, and even put a new cover on it to replace the old wood cover. If you have a sealed system, don't mess with replacing it yourself, give Better CO a call. Johnny DoeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Radon readings in my basement ranged from 4 pCi/L in the summer to about 9 pCi/L in the winter. My OCD finally got the better of me, and I began looking for a good outfit to mitigate. I got a few quotes and then found Better Colorado Radon thanks to Google. Always fun, right? I liked what I read and requested an estimate. Ryan got back to me within 24 hours (a good start) and we arranged for him to come and take a look. Came out right away. Impressed me immediately (not easy to do...) with his knowledge and I believed that he'd do a good job. He came out yesterday and I must say that his work, attention to detail and craftmanship exceeded my expectations. I was quite simply blown away with the results. I've attached some before and after pictures of the work. You can see why. I had the same work done on a previous house, and while the results were good, I could tell that they did the minimum needed. Ryan did the opposite. He even noticed some slab dirt around the basement tub drain, and went to Home Depot to get some sealant. That is professionalism at its finest and another great example of his making things as best that he can. Reading were 9.4 pCi/L yesterday. Just over 24 hours later? 3.8 pCi/L and dropping!! (Yes, I have a digital meter...) So, if you are looking for radon mitigation, look no further. Call Better Colorado Radon. You won't be disappointed. On the contrary, you'll be thrilled. Great work, Ryan!!! Mark W. 7/29/25 update. Reading is now 1.18 pCi/L and has been since a week after installation. THAT is amazing. If that's what you are looking for, give Ryan a call. Kyle bradleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Prompted, efficient and friendly service. Tyler MartinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Teddy was very professional and knowledgeable. He ensured the system was effectively installed without being aesthetically intrusive. The job was completed well within their estimated window and was the best price in town! Cannot recommend Better Colorado Radon enough! Christian DuceyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great company. Great work. They are on time and professional.
