"The first  contact was answered promptly and an estimate meeting was arranged. A few days later the estimate  and shingle color samples were delivered by mail.  No better estimates came.  In fact, most companies contacted failed to respond at all.  When I accepted the offer, we talked again to schedule the job.  He estimated the job would start on July 16, and it did.
They started early on the first day, worked nearly until dark, and came back to finish the next day.  They were done by mid-afternoon.Apart from the roof being all new, I could hardly tell they had been there.  No mess, no mashed plantings, no shingle fragments or nails lying about.  Still waiting for a rain to test it, but it looks great."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a radon mitigation system depends on the type of system and its maintenance. With proper care, a system can last for many decades. Passive systems tend to last longer as they have fewer components that require replacement. Active systems, which have more moving parts like fans, generally have a shorter lifespan. For instance, water filtration devices and active pressurization systems require more frequent maintenance. While the system as a whole is durable, the radon fan in an active system typically has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years and will need to be replaced. As long as the fan is working, the mitigation system should function correctly.

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.

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.

The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.

Mitigation reduces radon levels, protecting your health and complying with safety standards.
