About Radon in St-Alexandre-de-Lamouraska, Quebec

Last updated: March 2026

St-Alexandre-de-Lamouraska is served by C-NRPP certified radon professionals listed on RadonFinder.ca. Quebec's radon risk is concentrated in regions underlain by the Grenville geological province — including the Laurentians, Eastern Townships, the Outaouais, and parts of Mauricie — where uranium-bearing gneiss and granite produce elevated soil gas. The Montreal urban area, sitting on the St. Lawrence Lowlands, generally shows lower levels. Quebec has a high proportion of older housing stock in cities like Quebec City and Trois-Rivières, and older construction with block foundations and open sump pits tends to allow more radon entry.
