Radon mitigation costs in Colorado are not prohibitively expensive. However, mitigation costs due vary depending on the home's size, design, foundation (and number of foundations), construction materials, and local climate. Colorado homeowners can install a radon mitigation system for between $400-$500. Nationally, professionally-installed radon mitigation system costs average $1,200, but range from $850 to $1,500 in Colorado, assuming there aren't any problems encountered during installation.*
Do-it-yourself testing kits in Colorado range from $10-$50. Home inspectors and radon measurement contractors can perform this service for you if you don't want to do it yourself. Hiring a professional to test for radon in your home will cost more, perhaps upwards of $150.
Costs are highly dependent on what is required to vent the radon and how to route it through the house. Keep in mind, you will have operating costs associated with radon mitigation, too. Most of these costs come in the form of electricity to run the fan and potentially added heating and cooling costs due to the venting.
