"Completely satisfied. Would certainly recommend them for Radon mitigation work. They worked efficiently, were neat and clean and the price was quite reasonable."
"He was very good! He discussed with the seller all of what he found in his inspection and was very professional. I will highly recommend him. He's a great guy!"
"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."
"Sales representative met with me to understand needs. Sketch and estimate was written up on site and proposal sent via email. Comments to proposal and sketch were picked up quickly. Install crew hoped to do install in one day - but it took two. The install crew was pleasant and worked with me to review on going installation. If you need to hire someone to help keep water away from home and away from basement this is a good company to hire."
"This company understands customer service. My call was returned immediately and was able to have someone out to issue a quote within days of contact. We received a quote and had the work done within a week. We have had all the big name companies out to give us quotes and High Tech Waterproofing provided a better option. Their quote was more cost effective, involved no hazardous fumes, no stud removal (that others had requested), and still included a warranty. I am thankful thankful that I ran across their review on Angie's List. We've yet to have spring rains to test the job done, but I feel very comfortable with our choice. I would recommend this company to any one. "

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.
Mitigation reduces radon levels, protecting your health and complying with safety standards.
If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.
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.
No, radon mitigation systems do not decrease home value or make a home harder to sell. In areas where homes experience similar radon exposure risks, a radon mitigation system is viewed as an improvement. Potential homebuyers often opt to buy a home with a radon mitigation system already installed to reduce the risk of cancer for their families.
