Radon in the Outaouais the 2012 survey, not Gatineau alone
The Outaouais, from Gatineau to the Pontiac, is one of the Quebec regions where public-health departments talk about radon the most. The rock there is often richer in uranium than in the St. Lawrence lowlands. Chelsea, Cantley and the hillside sectors come back in those portraits.
The neighbour is not your result
One street can mix slabs on grade, finished basements and crawl spaces. The gas enters through each building’s foundation. An address is not enough. The detector goes where people sleep or work the longest, at the lowest level that is truly occupied.
For Gatineau: radon testing in Gatineau.
Sale and rental
A written result serves the owner and the buyer. The real-estate transaction and the tenant guide describe what follows, without replacing a notary.
The 4-day test gives a first reading. The 91-day test covers the three-month minimum Health Canada asks for. Both are $59 before tax: shipping, return and the laboratory are included, taxes extra. The PDF report is sent within 2 business days after the laboratory receives the detector.
Above 200 Bq/m³, mitigation is confirmed with a quote. Gaz Radon is C-NRPP certified for measurement and mitigation.
