Soil and foundation conditions in Nova Scotia
-
A 2024 national radon survey estimated that more than 1 in 3 Nova Scotia homes (36.8%) have radon at or above the 200 Bq/m³ guideline.

Health Canada says radon can enter through cracks in foundation floors and walls, construction joints and gaps around service pipes, floor drains and sumps. The only way to know your level is to test.

Frost heave needs three things: soil that holds frost, such as clay or silt, enough water, and freezing temperatures. Good drainage, including drain tile around the footings, helps keep water away from the freezing zone.
