Customers say: True professional

"Scott made me feel as important as some of the larger jobs he’s handled. I felt he was trustworthy (no scare tactics), attentive to my needs, fairly priced, and accessible. Out of my experience with other vendors, he’s the only one I would recommend to friends and family. Anyone seeing this review, should feel comfortable in knowing that their home is in great hands."

"Its been over a year now since having our system installed by Southern Radon. Previous owner of our home had a system placed before our closing using another company but our numbers remained high. After reading the good reviews on Angies list, decided to call Southern Radon and ask for help. Matt visited with us, brought his detector, was able to target a few hot spots and we worked from there as far as how the system should be set up. Matt was awesome, has an amazing amt of knowlege about radon, asked all the right questions and seemed to be able to easily assess our needs. Over this year we have had many contractors visit, assess and make repairs...Matt stands out above them all. Our system works well and we have had very low readings which are a great relief ....The team that was sent to us to do the work I would rate B...a little sloppy ....didn't cover nearby area to protect or prevent a mess, as i remember some debris shooting out ...onto floor and walls and storage...would have been better if they were proactive and covered the areas that could possibly be affected...."

"We used Elite for radon testing and it was positive and we put in radon system. We also used them when we purchased a new home to inspect and to test for radon. Radon was in normal range in new home. I don't remember exact prices for each test but was fair as was installation of radon system. Very thorough job and extremely professional."

"We have a concern about the level of radon in our basement apartment. Jesse came to our home and ran a radon test for a week. He was very thorough and informative. He addressed our concerns and answered many of the questions we had. At the end of the test he immediately sent us a report showing the radon levels for the week. We were very pleased with the service received."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Radon enters your home when warm air begins to rise and exits through the roof, creating a vacuum that pulls cooler air from under the foundation. Part of that air is radon, which is an invisible, odorless gas that develops naturally when radioactive particles are deep within the ground. Those particles usually come from decaying matter in soil and rocks.

The natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

A homeowner can install a radon mitigation system on their own. But it’s a challenging DIY that requires a lot of knowledge about radon mitigation as well as familiarity with local regulations. You do not want to risk an improper installation that leaves the system unable to detect radon or gives it a shortened life span. Relying on a professional is the surest way to guarantee a successful installation.

The soil beneath your house is most likely what’s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it’s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn’t been through periodic radon tests, such as well water. Over time, the radon from the soil can inhabit other parts of your house like the foundation or plumbing.

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is present everywhere, complete avoidance is impossible. 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 preventative measures if your home's radon levels are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.
