Tennessee doesn't license radon mitigators, so credentials matter more
Tennessee does not issue a state radon measurement or mitigation license. That is the state's own program talking, not a loophole we hide. Anyone with a truck can say they "do radon." Credentials are how you tell a pressure-field job from a bathroom fan in a crawl vent.
Ask us for our certification ID. Look it up in the public NRPP or NRSB directories before you hire anyone, including us. Call (423) 455-9162 if you want the ID read to you.
What Tennessee does not license
TDEC's radon program points homeowners to national credentials instead of a state card. There is no Tennessee radon contractor license to hang on the van. There is no state roster that proves the person who showed up passed a mitigation exam.
That is why "licensed in Tennessee" on a radon bid is either confused or advertising a general contractor license that is not a radon credential. Ask which exam they sat, NRPP or NRSB, and whether the listing is current.
Verify NRPP or NRSB in the public database
NRPP (National Radon Proficiency Program) and NRSB (National Radon Safety Board) keep public directories. A real mitigator can give you a name and a certification ID you can search.
Do this:
- Get the certification ID and the name on the credential.
- Search the NRPP or NRSB directory yourself. Do not stop at a logo on a truck.
- Check that the listing is for mitigation, not only measurement, if they are quoting a system.
- Ask who will be on the job. A directory listing for someone in another county does not cover a helper you never heard of.
We will not print an NRPP number on this page. Numbers get stale, and a screenshot is not a lookup. Ask us for our certification ID. Then look it up.
What a good quote includes
A number without a foundation is a guess. A quote worth comparing should say:
- Crawl, slab, basement, or split, and what that means for this house
- Fan, piping, sealing, and where the exhaust lands
- Electrical, including whether a new circuit is in the price
- A visible manometer and a system label
- A post-mitigation test after the house settles
- What happens if the first retest is still high
- The certification ID you can verify
If the bid is hundreds cheaper and none of that is written down, you know what you are buying. The mitigation page is the systems version of that list. Cost ranges live on the radon mitigation cost in Johnson City page.
Johnson City and Washington County specifics
Zone 1 is why you are shopping. It is not a reason to skip the directory lookup. Hillside splits and historic crawls are where a cheap one-pipe job leaves half the house sitting high.
If you already have a failed test, start with the after a failed radon test page, then hire the credential you can verify. How long mitigation takes is the clock if a closing is involved.
Request a quote with the town, the foundation, and the test number if you have one. Ask us for our certification ID. Call (423) 455-9162. Johnson City Radon. Johnson City, TN.
Short answers on credentials
Does Tennessee license radon mitigators?+-
No. Tennessee does not issue a state radon measurement or mitigation license. TDEC points people to national credentials: NRPP and NRSB. Ask for a certification ID and look it up in the public directory.
What is NRPP or NRSB, and how do I verify it?+-
They are the two national radon credential programs with public databases. Get the name and the certification ID, then search the directory yourself. Check that the listing covers mitigation if you are hiring a system, not only a test. Ask us for our certification ID. We do not print a number here because listings go stale.
What should a radon mitigation quote include?+-
Foundation type, the fan and piping, sealing, electrical, a visible manometer, a post-mitigation test, and the certification ID you can verify. A cheap number with none of that written down is not a comparable bid.
