"Look, you're not calling a company like FWDR because something happy has happened... Our refrigerator flooded our kitchen - exposing a small, long-term leak that had slowly destroyed our cabinets, drywall, and floors without for years our knowledge. We now had ourselves a water damage AND a mold problem and had no idea where to start. We were lost and stressed and didn't know who to call. I did a quick search and found FWDR because of all of their amazing Yelp reviews. One call to FWDR turned a stressful situation into a manageable project with knowledgeable support all along the way. Javier was always able to quickly and patiently answer my questions (and I had a lot of questions), he referred us to several companies to deal with prerequisite issues (asbestos and lead testing and removal), and it felt like he was there to walk us through the whole process. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the patience and consideration Javier, Santos, and Margarita showed every step of the way. They worked with the other vendors and my insurance directly to make sure that no time was wasted between services from different companies, the work was quick and thorough (proof received through testing), and every consideration was given to my family with two toddlers and small home during a pandemic - they did their very best to work around us and our day to day needs. I can't thank them or recommend them enough. Attentive, detailed, courteous, patient, thorough, and going well above and beyond in customer service - you really can't ask for more from a company you never really want to have to call in the first place!"

"It is never easy having your kitchen torn up, but Hector from Bay Works Tile and Stone was wonderful to work with.  He met with me a couple of times from January to March regarding this project and went over all the details.  It took a few months for me to decide what type of material I wanted to choose and I finally decided on a travertine.  I ordered the material and we set a date based on when the product would arrive.  I asked Hector to pick the product up for me and he had no problem doing that, and did not charge me more.  The first day of demo went great and at the end of the day I went to look at the travertine and noticed it was the wrong material!  I called Hector when I realized that I had ordered honed not tumbled and he agreed to meet me at a tile shop the next morning.  We found another alternative and he even got the tile price at his cost AND agreed to take the wrong tile back at no additional cost.  What I like about Hector is his easy going attitude and his ability to problem solve and always make you feel like its under control with a smile!  This could have been a really big nightmare for myself and my family with a torn up kitchen and it worked out great.  I even like the tile I picked out better than my first choice!  His pricing is really reasonable and he doesn't nickel and dime you like other companies.  Hector wasn't the cheapest bid, nor the most expensive, and I am so glad I went with him!  Our kitchen looks fabulous!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Radon is the number one non-smoking cause of lung cancer in the United States, but it can cause some other concerning side effects in the meantime. If you have a raspy voice, chest pains, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or any of the above, don’t hesitate to perform radon testing and install a mitigation system as soon as possible.

Radon is present almost everywhere but, like sunlight, the concentration levels and how often you are exposed to it have a large part to play in just how dangerous it is. There are levels of radon that are acceptable inside a house, but above a certain limit, radon becomes a serious radioactive hazard that is a known cause of lung cancer. In fact, radon exposure is the number two leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking).

You'll need to test your home for radon after installing the mitigation system, then again every two years. If radon remains elevated, contact a licensed radon professional, either the contractor who installed the system or a different one, and have them evaluate the system. They may need to make some changes to improve its effectiveness and performance.

Many radon fans carry a five-year manufacturer's warranty. That said, your radon fan should last between five and ten years. Regular inspections will ensure the fan is operating properly. Unusual or exceptional noise coming from the fan or indications on your manometer or system monitor can immediately tell you that something is amiss.

There are steps you can take as a homeowner to remediate radon yourself. While a radon reduction professional can make the biggest impact in your home, you can make efforts to improve radon levels on your own by sealing cracks, increasing ventilation, and testing for radon regularly.
