"The experience with Justin at Fire & Water Damage Recovery was excellent. They were referred by the plumbing company that serviced my sump pump. We still got 3 estimate, Justin's estimate was in the middle but I felt good with Justin based on our phone conversation and the referral so we went with this company. Justin did tell me that he might have estimated on the high side because he does not like to surprise the homeowners. What a surprise when I go the final invoice. The final invoice came in much lower and was very close or lower than the lowest estimate I got. Justin and his team also took pictures of how the place was before and after for me to see. They even took pictures of the pathway that they took to get to the crawl space to assure me that they kept the place clean when they got in and out. I was very satisified with Justin and his company."

"We needed to turn our home into a rental property.  We had started to work with another contractor.  Unfortunately, the contractor had our start date for a month after we needed the project completed.  I searched Angie's List and found S&Y Corporation.  They came to our house, within an hour after my first call and started the project the very next day.

S&Y Corporation is one of the most professional contractors that we have worked with. Their employees are skilled artisans. Our floors, walls and electrical work were a WOW, for us. I was so impressed with their service, that I wish we had found them sooner. I would hire them again, in a heart beat!. Mr. Young Ko takes pride in the work of his team and was good with follow up, before, during and after the projects. Great job!  I will hire S&Y again."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a radon mitigation system depends on the type of system and its maintenance. With proper care, a system can last for many decades. Passive systems tend to last longer as they have fewer components that require replacement. Active systems, which have more moving parts like fans, generally have a shorter lifespan. For instance, water filtration devices and active pressurization systems require more frequent maintenance. While the system as a whole is durable, the radon fan in an active system typically has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years and will need to be replaced. As long as the fan is working, the mitigation system should function correctly.

While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the system and property layout.

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. The average radon level in homes across the United States is 1.3 picocuries per liter (pCi/L). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends taking action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.
