Welcome to Armor Home Inspections
Your home should be the safest place in the world—but an invisible threat could be hiding in the air you breathe. Radon is a radioactive gas that seeps from the soil into homes, and long-term exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Because radon is odorless and colorless, you won’t know it’s there unless you test for it.
At Armor Inspection Services, we provide accurate, certified radon testing throughout Winfield, Crown Point, Valparaiso, Merrillville, Schererville, Hobart, St. John, and all of Northwest Indiana. Whether you’re buying a home, selling, or simply want peace of mind for your family, our inspections give you the knowledge to take action if needed.
Indiana ranks as a high-risk state for radon, with many counties reporting indoor levels above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. According to the Indiana State Department of Health, Lake and Porter Counties have a significant percentage of homes that test above safe limits. That means testing isn’t optional—it’s essential for homeowners in Northwest Indiana.
If you live in Winfield, Crown Point, or surrounding towns, your home may already be at risk. Radon can enter through:
Cracks in foundation floors and walls
Crawlspaces and sump pumps
Construction joints and gaps around pipes
The only way to know is through a professional test.
