About Radon in Thunder Bay, Ontario

Last updated: March 2026

Thunder Bay is served by C-NRPP certified radon professionals listed on RadonFinder.ca. Ontario has widely varying radon risk depending on geography. The Ottawa Valley, eastern Ontario, and areas underlain by the Canadian Shield — including parts of Sudbury, Elliot Lake, and the Bancroft region — have elevated radon due to uranium-rich granite bedrock. Southern Ontario's clay and limestone geology generally produces lower levels, though local hotspots exist in any region. Health Canada estimates roughly 7% of Ontario homes exceed the guideline.
