ACAC COUNCIL-CERTIFIED · IICRC CERTIFIED · INDEPENDENT RADON TESTING SINCE 2009
★ 5.0 · 156 REVIEWSMON–FRI 8AM–5PM
Stockbridge’s residential growth along I-75 south of Atlanta spans decades of construction, from early 1980s developments to recent subdivisions. Radon risk does not track with home age. SafeAir provides certified radon testing in Stockbridge with same-day scheduling and results in 48-72 hours.
Jeremy Shelton has been testing Stockbridge homes for indoor air quality problems since 2009. He founded SafeAir after discovering a mold infestation in his own crawlspace had affected his health for more than a year. Radon is different from mold in every way but one: you can’t know it’s there without a test.
SafeAir provides ACAC & IICRC-certified radon testing across Stockbridge with results in 48-72 hours. We test and report. We do not mitigate.

Yes, and Stockbridge’s four decades of construction span a range of radon risk profiles.
Henry County is classified as EPA Zone 2, where roughly 25 to 40 percent of tested homes exceed the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. Stockbridge occupies the northern portion of Henry County along the I-75 corridor, where recorded averages range from 2.2 to 3.8 pCi/L depending on neighborhood and foundation type. The Eagles Landing and Mt. Zion corridors in northern Stockbridge have documented results at the upper end of that range. The underlying Georgia Piedmont crystalline rock contributes radon-generating source material throughout the area.
Stockbridge’s housing spans from early 1980s ranch subdivisions near downtown to recent master-planned communities along Eagles Landing Parkway. Early homes were built predominantly on crawlspace foundations. Newer communities use slab-on-grade and walk-out basement designs. Neither foundation type provides inherent radon protection, and radon levels on adjacent lots in the same subdivision can differ significantly.
Zone data gives you a probability. A test gives you your actual number.
According to the U.S. EPA, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States.
Stockbridge’s I-75 corridor has been developed in waves from the 1980s to today, producing a layered housing stock with varying foundation types and radon risk.
The earliest Stockbridge subdivisions from the 1980s were built on block and concrete crawlspace foundations along the Mount Zion Road and downtown corridors. Unencapsulated crawlspaces create a continuous conduit for radon-bearing soil gas to accumulate beneath the floor system. These older homes represent the highest-risk configuration in Stockbridge’s housing stock.
Communities developed in the late 1990s and 2000s along the Mt. Zion and Flippen Road corridors use poured concrete slab foundations. Radon enters through shrinkage cracks, utility penetrations, and the slab-to-stem-wall joint. Buyers in Bridgewater, Walden, and Monarch Village should schedule a certified test at closing.
Eagles Landing’s rolling terrain made walk-out and daylight basement construction standard throughout much of the community. Basement foundations in direct soil contact consistently produce the highest radon readings in a given neighborhood. The Eagles Landing and Waterford Place corridors have documented results at the upper end of the Stockbridge range.
Post-2005 subdivisions in Tara Bluff and Martin Creek use energy-efficient construction with tighter building envelopes. Reduced air exchange concentrates whatever radon enters through foundation penetrations and slab joints. Testing is recommended in these communities even when construction appears recent and well-maintained.
Whatever your home type, the continuous monitor goes in your lowest livable level. The result is specific to your property, your foundation, your soil.
Jeremy or a SafeAir consultant places a calibrated continuous monitoring device in the lowest livable level of your home. The device records radon readings hour by hour over 48 hours.
Continuous electronic monitors produce significantly more data than charcoal canister kits. Their results are accepted by lenders, buyers’ agents, and real estate attorneys throughout Georgia. The $15 UGA Extension kit works for general awareness. It does not work for real estate transactions.
After device pickup, your written report arrives within 24 hours. It documents your radon level, testing conditions, and the inspector’s certification. A SafeAir consultant reviews the findings with you directly.
You do not need to be home during the 48-hour measurement period.
Calibrated continuous monitor set in your lowest livable level.
Hour-by-hour readings recorded. No need to be home.
Certified written report, reviewed with you directly.
Radon comes up on most Stockbridge contracts now. Buyers’ agents request it. Some lenders require it. The due diligence window on most Georgia contracts runs 7–10 days.
What matters in that window: you need an independent result. A company that tests and sells mitigation has a financial reason to find a problem. SafeAir tests and reports only. If the result is below 4.0 pCi/L, you’re done. If it’s above, you know before closing and you negotiate from that position.
Mitigation in Stockbridge typically runs $800–$2,500 depending on foundation type and system design. Knowing the number before you close is leverage. Discovering it after is not.
If scheduling is time-sensitive, note your closing date in the form. SafeAir prioritizes contingency-window requests.
SafeAir does not sell radon mitigation systems. That is a deliberate choice.
Most radon companies test and mitigate. That creates a conflict: the company that finds a problem also profits from solving it. Jeremy built SafeAir to remove that conflict. He reports what the monitor records, regardless of the result. If your test comes back elevated, he explains what the number means and what your options look like. You choose your mitigator independently.
Jeremy holds certifications through ACAC (Certified Indoor Environmental Consultant, Certified Microbial Consultant) and IICRC. He has been testing indoor air quality in Georgia homes since 2009.
SafeAir tests homes and properties throughout Stockbridge and Henry County, including:
If your neighborhood isn’t listed, we still test there.
Stockbridge and Henry County are classified as EPA Zone 2, where roughly 25 to 40 percent of tested homes exceed the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. Stockbridge's documented averages range from 2.2 to 3.8 pCi/L across the city's different neighborhoods, with the Eagles Landing and Mt. Zion corridors recording results at the upper end. The Piedmont Province geology underlying Henry County generates radon throughout the soil column beneath four decades of residential development. A certified test is the only way to know whether your specific home falls within the safe range or above the action level.
There are none. Radon is odorless, colorless, and produces no symptoms you would connect to it. Long-term exposure is cumulative. The only way to know if radon is present at an elevated level is a certified test.
Contact SafeAir for current pricing. For context: professional continuous monitor testing in the Stockbridge area typically runs $150-$300. The UGA Extension Program offers $15 charcoal kits for general screening, but those results are not accepted in most real estate transactions.
SafeAir uses 48-hour continuous electronic monitors. Your written report is typically delivered within 24 hours of device pickup. Most Stockbridge clients have results in hand within 3-4 days of scheduling.
The EPA recommends mitigation at that level. SafeAir provides the test and the result. We do not sell mitigation systems. If your result is elevated, we explain what it means and what your options are. Mitigation in Stockbridge typically costs $800-$2,500 depending on foundation type.
Georgia has no state law requiring radon disclosure or testing for home sales. However, buyers increasingly request it during due diligence, and some lenders require it on certain loan types. If a buyer requests a test and the contingency window is open, completing it before that window closes protects your transaction.
Jeremy has tested hundreds of Georgia homes since 2009.
No obligation. No upsell. Just a certified result you can trust.
