Radon Mitigation in Gorham, Maine
Protecting Gorham homes and families from radon since 2015
Gorham, home to the University of Southern Maine's largest campus, is a growing community of nearly 19,000 residents in Cumberland County. The town blends small-town New England charm in Gorham Village with suburban development along the Route 25 and Route 202 corridors. From the tree-lined streets near USM to rural properties toward Sebago Lake, Gorham offers diverse housing options. The town's granite-rich soil—the same geology that shaped Maine's landscape—can produce radon gas that seeps into homes throughout the community. Central Maine Radon & Water Mitigation has protected Gorham families from radon in every neighborhood, from student housing near campus to family homes in South Gorham and Little Falls.

Radon Conditions in Gorham
Gorham Village and the neighborhoods surrounding USM feature a mix of older homes and student rentals where radon testing is important. The Route 25 corridor toward Standish and Route 202 toward Windham contain newer developments that still need testing due to the area's granite bedrock. South Gorham and the Sebago Lake Road area, with their rural character, also see elevated radon levels requiring professional mitigation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Radon in Gorham
Should USM student housing in Gorham be tested for radon?
Yes, off-campus student housing should be tested for radon. Students can ask landlords about testing history, and property owners should ensure their rental units are safe for occupants.
Does Gorham's rural character affect radon levels?
Radon comes from natural geology, not development density. Rural Gorham properties can have elevated radon just like village homes—testing is the only way to know your levels.
How do you serve Gorham's spread-out neighborhoods?
Our technicians serve all of Gorham, from the village center to rural areas near Sebago Lake Road, South Gorham, and Little Falls. Distance is no barrier to protecting your family.
Are newer Gorham developments less likely to have radon?
Not necessarily. Modern construction may include some radon-resistant features, but Gorham's underlying granite can produce radon in any home. Testing is essential regardless of home age.
