Radon Testing
Uncover the hidden threat of radon, a naturally-occurring, odorless, colorless, and tasteless gas in your home. Radon testing is crucial to determine if your Denver, CO residence or surrounding areas are exposed to unsafe levels of this harmful gas. Ensure your family’s safety with our comprehensive radon testing services.
What is Radon?
More Info
Radon, a naturally-occurring gas, is odorless, colorless, and tasteless. Radon testing is the only way to know if your home has unsafe levels of Radon gas.
Radon gas is produced when uranium 238 and other radioactive elements break down in soil, rock, and water. Released into the air, it accumulates in poorly ventilated areas. Exposure to Radon causes cancer. It is estimated to cause about 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year in the U.S.

Termite Inspection
Protecting your investment starts with a thorough termite inspection from Horizon Home Inspection, Denver’s trusted partner for comprehensive property evaluations. In Colorado, wood-destroying insects like subterranean termites can cause extensive structural damage long before visible signs appear, which is why a professional assessment is essential for both safety and financial security. Our expert inspectors conduct a detailed visual inspection of multiple areas of the property, including the foundation, crawl spaces, basements, attics, and exterior perimeter, to identify active infestations or conditions conducive to future activity.

Mold Testing
Protect Your Health with Professional Denver Mold Testing
While Colorado is known for its dry climate, mold in Denver homes is more common than many homeowners realize. Hidden moisture from plumbing leaks, roof issues, or poor ventilation in basements and crawl spaces can create the perfect breeding ground for mold spores, potentially impacting your indoor air quality and family health. At Horizon Home Inspection, we go beyond the surface to provide scientifically accurate mold testing and air quality assessments that give you definitive answers.
