"Very friendly, efficient, and prompt. I would hire again. Radon test cost $200.00 which was very competitive. The results didn t need to go a lab."

"Very responsive and informative. Danny explained what was necessary and did an expert level job. Before doing any work he reviewed the entire process with us, and covered all walkways and stairs with tarps. Afterwards he answered all our questions about radon. The after test showed mitigation reduced our radon measurements to 0.51! Excellent work."

"They came in and quoted a set price and even though it took them longer to complete the job properly, they did not charge more. They came when they said and were very professional. I felt confident in the work they were doing and cleaned up afterward. Most importantly, is within a day our radon level went from 12.0 to .32, almost non-existent. Extremely happy with the results and would recommend them highly. Steve, Eric and Larry answered any questions we had and I am speaking with my neighbors to see if they have a radon issue in their houses."

"We had a radon remediation installed by them in 2021. We've had to replace the fan 2x already- whereas the expected lifetime of a fan is 8-10 years."

"I recently worked with Sidad for the radon testing of a new home purchase. Sidad was very responsive, he walked me through the process of what he will be doing to perform the tests. Sidad was able to fit our home into his schedule extremely timely and was very easy to work with. Would definitely recommend Sidad and Clue Radon Testing."

"Jose Rodriguez was prompt, professional, and fast with results. He was there when he said he would, went there the next day after I called, and provided the results on time. As a real estate professional I know I'll need the services again and I know that he is the person I will be calling. Thank you!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

Radon is present almost everywhere but, like sunlight, the concentration levels and how often you are exposed to it have a large part to play in just how dangerous it is. There are levels of radon that are acceptable inside a house, but above a certain limit, radon becomes a serious radioactive hazard that is a known cause of lung cancer. In fact, radon exposure is the number two leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking).

No, air purifiers are not an effective way to reduce or remove radon. Radon is a radioactive, inert gas that cannot be filtered by standard air purifiers, which are designed to capture particulates like dust and mold. While an air purifier can improve indoor air quality by removing other pollutants, it should not be relied upon for radon. The only effective solution for high radon levels is a dedicated radon mitigation system.

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.

Radon is the number one non-smoking cause of lung cancer in the United States, but it can cause some other concerning side effects in the meantime. If you have a raspy voice, chest pains, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or any of the above, don’t hesitate to perform radon testing and install a mitigation system as soon as possible.
