Radon Testing built for Lexington homes
Lexington is one of Anoka County's smallest cities — barely a square mile and 2,150 residents — wedged between Circle Pines and Blaine along Lexington Avenue NE. The housing inventory is overwhelmingly 1955-1975 ramblers and 1.5-story Cape Cods on 75-foot lots, with a small cluster of 1990s townhomes and a few newer 2010s infill builds. Lexington homes sit on Anoka sand plain — sandier and better-draining than east-Blaine clay — but the city's stormwater system is older and surface water still pools in spring. Common findings: original Zinsco panels (Lexington had a heavy concentration of mid-60s tract builds), galvanized supply lines reaching end-of-life, deteriorated single-pane storms, ice-dam-prone shallow eaves on every 1960s rambler, and active radon in basements (the entire Anoka sand plain is in EPA Radon Zone 1). Schools are Centennial District 12 — a major draw for relocating buyers. Lexington Park and Sunrise Lake offer the green space, and the city is a 6-minute drive from anywhere in Blaine. We inspect Lexington homes weekly and know the housing stock cold. Reports in 24 Hours, FREE quote.
That local context shapes how we approach radon testing here. All of Anoka County sits in EPA Radon Zone 1, where roughly 4 in 10 basements test above the 4.0 pCi/L action level. Every Lexington inspection includes a digital report in 24 hours and a phone walkthrough. A common related finding in Lexington is radon above action level — we check for it carefully.
