Is radon actually a problem in Lubbock?
Submitted test results for Lubbock average 12.7 pCi/L. That's more than three times the EPA's 4.0 pCi/L action level. That figure comes from a small, self-selected sample of homes whose owners suspected a problem, so it isn't a citywide average. The only way to know your home's level is to test it.
Lubbock County sits in EPA Zone 2: moderate radon potential on paper. But the caliche and limestone-rich soils under the South Plains generate real radon, and the readings homeowners have submitted here run high enough that one radon data service calls Lubbock the most active radon market in Texas. The honest summary: the map says moderate, the local readings say test your house. See the full Lubbock data, with sources.

We connect you with a local pro
An independent radon professional who works the Lubbock area, not a national call center, not the cheapest bidder from three states away.
You deal direct
The pro quotes you, schedules you, and does the work. We don't take a cut of your bill or stand between you and answers.
What kind of pros do you refer?
We look for independent professionals who hold voluntary national radon certifications (NRPP or NRSB), carry insurance, and have a genuine track record in the Lubbock area. Texas doesn't license radon work at the state level, so those voluntary credentials (and local reputation) are what separate careful operators from guesswork.
That last part matters and most websites won't tell you: there is no Texas state radon license. Anyone claiming to be "Texas-certified" for radon is dressing up a credential that doesn't exist. The certifications worth asking about are the national ones, and we explain them plainly on our About page.
