Built from real completed jobs, not advertised "starting at" prices — every point comes from a customer stating what they paid on Angi or HomeAdvisor.
Metro-wide, not Ankeny-specific: these prices come from contractors serving the whole Des Moines metro. Reviewers didn't say which city their job was in, so none of them is confirmed as a Ankeny job.

We only count a price when a reviewer describes a finished job and states the amount. Ads, "starting at" quotes, and add-on charges that aren't the full job total are excluded. This metro clears our own bar for showing a number: 5+ price points from 3+ different contractors. Most metros in Iowa don't clear it yet, and we don't show a number for those.

Credential check: every Ankeny-based contractor below is on an Iowa HHS radon roster (number and roster date on each card). That means they're allowed to do the work, not that they do it well. Check an Iowa license yourself →

Questions

How much does radon mitigation cost in Ankeny, Iowa?

Based on 23 verified paid-installation prices from 4 different Iowa-credentialed contractors serving the Des Moines metro (2016-06 through 2025-01), the median price was $1,095, with a range of $900–$2,800. This is drawn from customer-reported prices on Angi and HomeAdvisor, not contractor-advertised “starting at” quotes, and is only published because it clears our own bar of 5+ prices from 3+ contractors — most Iowa metros don't clear that bar yet and we don't publish a number for those. These are metro-wide prices: reviewers didn't say which city their job was in, so none is confirmed as a Ankeny job. What changes the price →

Does a radon contractor need a license in Iowa?

Yes. Iowa HHS certifies radon testers (measurement specialists, numbers starting RNTST) and credentials installers (mitigation specialists, numbers starting RNMIT). Mitigation rules in effect since July 1, 2026 require national ANSI/AARST installation standards and a level below 4 pCi/L after the system is installed.

Do I have to test for radon to sell a house in Iowa?

No test is required. The seller disclosure statement does ask about radon: any known tests, the date of the last report and the results, and buyers must get the Iowa HHS radon fact sheet.

Source: Iowa Real Estate Commission rule 193E-14.1. Checked 2026-11-05.
Do new homes in Ankeny have to be radon-resistant?

Not yet under state law. HF 2297, signed May 19, 2026, requires passive radon-resistant construction in new one- and two-family homes once the state building code commissioner adopts a rule. The draft rule's hearing was Oct. 21, 2026, and we found no adopted rule as of 2026-11-05. Locally, Johnson, Muscatine and Shelby counties and Harlan, Coralville, Iowa City and North Liberty have adopted a radon appendix (trade-group list).

What radon level should I act on?

EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or higher and suggests considering a fix between 2 and 4 pCi/L. What your test number means →
