"Very easy to get an appointment on short notice when I had limited time to get a radon test done in the process of purchasing a home. Their price was also slightly lower than an estimate I'd received from another company, and the technician was more thorough about explaining the process than the other company I considered."

"I think this guy did a good job. My In-laws thought he was a little fussy, but I'd rather have every little thing noted. I'd rather be able to decide what's important. The report was pretty concise, and the summary was pretty good as well. I recommend him."

"First, the company switched to a different name and when we contacted them they said the deal shouldn't have been up but they would still honor it. We told them we wanted an estimate done and they did it but I had to call the sales person to ask when we would receive it because I was supposed to get it the same day and two days later I had still not received it. My wife and I changed our mind and we aren't going to have this done at this time due to money issues. The person I dealt with over the phone was very personable and got back to me quick, I just think that the sales person should have responded to me quicker."

"High Tech was able to accommodate our schedule (we needed the work done quickly).  The technician came out the next day.  He was friendly, courteous, and professional.  He worked efficiently and was accommodating when we asked for special care to avoid tracking dust from the basement up the stairs.  We are happy with the quality of the work and would use them again.  Only disappointment was we neglected to ask for the Angie's List discount.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

Abatement includes sealing entry points and venting with systems that reduce radon levels below recommended EPA limits. It is handled by certified professionals.

Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter. 

Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.

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.

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