Customers say: True professional

"Jeremy was very professional and did a great job. He had reached out after I scheduled the original appointment to reschedule due to poor weather conditions. He offered to move the appointment to a date/time that he usually doesn t work to accomodate my needs. Once he had finished his work, he walked my fiance and I through everything explained it all very clearly. He also thoroughly explained the process for testing radon levels and getting test results back after the mitigation installation was complete. Would definitely recommend his services as he did a great job and his quote was very competitive."

"I had done two separate radon tests and knew the level was high. Bill came to evaluate where to place the system. He gave me a rough cost and time it would take for the install. He was able to schedule the install within a week. He arrived when scheduled. They did a very thorough job and cleaned up well after the install. It was hard to tell they were here. Very professional. The only knock I would have is that because they are quite busy, it is difficult to get an initial visit as Bill does the evaluation himself. You may have to call a few times and it was a challenge to pin down.

"They did a great job with the installation and made sure the Radon was under the level it needed to be. He had to make a couple of trips to make that happen but was very polite and profession through the whole process."

"In both spoken and written communication, this company was extremely professional. In the end they were a few thousand dollars higher in their estimate than the company I went with. If not for that I would have gone with EJS and I wouldn't hesitate to mention them to friends and family. I wanted to give them a good review here simply due to the level of courtesy, promptness, and professionalism they displayed.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Your radon fan needs to operate 24/7 to be effective. The only time the fan isn't operating is during its replacement. Radon levels in the home can increase within hours if the fan stops working or something obstructs the stack vent. Fortunately, radon systems require no downtime maintenance between fan changes.

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

The cost for a radon mitigation system typically ranges from $800 to $1,500, with an average around $1,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the severity of the radon issue, and the type of system required. Your home's foundation type also significantly impacts the cost. For example, sealing and ventilating an unfinished basement might cost around $4,600, while encapsulating a crawl space without a foundation slab can range from $1,500 to $15,000.

Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas that poses serious health risks, infiltrating homes through foundation cracks and unnoticed spaces.

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.
