FAQs
What is Radon, and why would I need a survey?
Radon is an invisible, odourless, radioactive gas commonly found in buildings. If you are selling a property in an area with previous Radon problems, prospective buyers will usually request a Radon survey. If you are an employer in Tavistock, your risk assessments must address Radon exposure.
Who needs a Radiation Protection Advisor?
Employers who undertake activities involving work with Ionising Radiation in the UK must engage a qualified RPA. Schedule four of the Ionising Radiations Regulations offers guidance on the particular circumstances which require RPA consultation.
What training do you provide?
We offer Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) training, as well as general Radiation Awareness Courses, designed to ensure employers are fully compliant with the regulations. Customised modules are available for different sectors, such as veterinary practices and educational facilities.

What Is Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas, which is invisible and odourless and produced by the decay of uranium present in rocks and soil. In some cases, it may also be found in water supplies. Concerningly, Radon is present at varying concentrations in both residential and commercial properties across Tavistock. The World Health Organization recognises it as the second leading cause of lung cancer.
While all buildings contain small traces of Radon, elevated levels are most often found in poorly ventilated areas. A Radon Affected Area is defined as any location where there is more than a 1% likelihood that a property’s concentration will exceed the recommended Action Level. Radon levels are expressed in becquerels per cubic metre (Bq/m³), with one becquerel indicating a single radioactive decay per second.
