Loganville spans the Walton-Gwinnett county line in an area with active real estate development, where buyers, sellers, and homeowners are increasingly requesting certified radon tests as a transaction standard. SafeAir provides independent testing in Loganville with results in 48-72 hours.
Jeremy Shelton has been testing Loganville 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 Loganville with results in 48-72 hours. We test and report. We do not mitigate.

Yes, and Loganville’s radon data stands out even within Zone 2.
Walton 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. Loganville’s position on the Walton-Gwinnett county line places it in the Georgia Piedmont Province, where biotite gneiss and crystalline metamorphic rock generate radon throughout the soil column. The 30052 zip code has recorded an average of 7.75 pCi/L across tested properties, well above the EPA action level and among the higher documented averages in the east metro.
Loganville’s housing spans 1970s ranch homes near the old downtown core to newer master-planned communities in the Harmony Club and Plantation at Bay Creek corridors. Radon levels vary block to block based on foundation type, soil contact, and whether a crawlspace has been encapsulated. Two homes on the same street can test at significantly different levels.
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.
Loganville’s mix of older ranch homes and newer master-planned subdivisions creates a wide range of foundation types and radon risk profiles.
Older ranch homes along the Highway 78 corridor and near the Loganville town center were built predominantly on open crawlspace foundations. Unencapsulated crawlspaces allow radon-bearing soil gas to accumulate directly beneath the living area. With the 30052 zip code averaging 7.75 pCi/L, these homes represent the highest-risk configuration in the area.
Loganville’s master-planned communities developed since the mid-1990s rely on poured concrete slab foundations. Radon enters through shrinkage cracks, utility sleeve penetrations, and the slab-to-stem-wall joint, which is rarely sealed to a radon-resistant standard. Buyers in these subdivisions should schedule a certified test at closing.
Tightly constructed two-story homes in Harmony Club and Windridge offer reduced air exchange with the exterior. Less ventilation means whatever radon enters through the foundation concentrates more quickly in living areas. These homes are worth testing even when other visible indicators appear favorable.
Homes in the Lake Carlton and Bailey Lake Estates areas are often built on sloped terrain with daylight or walk-out basement configurations. Basement foundations in direct soil contact consistently produce the highest radon readings in a given neighborhood. These properties should be considered a priority for testing.
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.

Radon comes up on most Loganville 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 Loganville 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 Loganville and the Walton-Gwinnett corridor, including:
If your neighborhood isn’t listed, we still test there.
Walton 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. The 30052 zip code serving central Loganville has recorded a documented average of 7.75 pCi/L across sampled properties, significantly above both the national average and the EPA action level. The underlying crystalline metamorphic rock of the Georgia Piedmont Province generates radon throughout the soil column beneath Loganville housing stock. Both newer master-planned communities and older ranch-era homes carry measurable risk, and a certified test is the only way to know your specific 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 Loganville 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 Loganville 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 Loganville 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.
