"He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and honest. After the visual inspection, he said we didn't need further testing which saved us a lot of money. He provided a thorough explanation for all of my questions and concerns. He also checked all the areas I was concerned with which included some cutting and removing of quarter round. This was a free estimate. Based on his integrity and knowledge, I would definitely hire him in the future."

Central Illinois Radon Mitigation has been in business for over 10 years. We specialize in radon gas removal. We have a team who have designed and installed hundreds of radon mitigation systems with great results. We offer free estimates and guarantee our results!

"I am selling my house and the radon test came back high. I got quotes from several vendors and Central Illinois Radon Mitigation was several hundred dollars lower than their closest competitor. They offer the same 5-year transferable warranty and are licensed, so it was an easy call who to go with. From quote to completion it took less than two weeks to get the system installed. David and the other installer were very attentive to cleanliness, using drop cloths throughout the house and cleaning up the work area when they were done. My only complaint is that they disposed of the gravel they removed from under the house in my backyard and I didn't find it until later."

"Jon at Finest Home Inspection was great. He walked us through the inspection and his findings on site as well as answered our specific questions about the house. Our inspection report was provided the same day and the radon test results were provided as soon as they were available. He let us know what he wasn't able to check because there were tenants living in the house. He gave us his honest opinion on the house when we asked him. It can be difficult to assess the thoroughness of a home inspection, but now that we've been living in our home for a while, I am confident our home inspection was thorough. We haven't run into any issues that were not addressed in the home inspection. I would recommend Finest Home Inspection."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

A radon test has no effect on humans—only the radon in the air does. The test does not redistribute the radon that is already present so yes, it’s safe to be around the testing kit even if it isn’t safe to be in the room itself. The test absorbs and measures the radon, but doesn't absorb enough of it to make the room any safer.

No level of radon is technically safe, but because it’s everywhere—even in the air outside—it’s impossible to avoid entirely. Instead, the Environmental Protection Agency encourages taking preventative measures if the levels of radon in your home rise above 2 pCi/L. (For reference, the average radon level in homes across the United States is 1.3 pCi/L.

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.

Ideally, no one will live in a house with elevated radon levels, as prolonged exposure increases the risk of serious health issues like lung cancer. However, homes with radon can be made safe through mitigation systems, such as active soil depressurization. Testing for radon regularly and addressing high levels helps ensure a safe living environment.

Results from radon testing usually take a week to process after the test period ends, with expedited services sometimes available for urgent cases.
