"Mat is the inspector realtors hate... tongue-in-cheek. He is extremely knowledgeable, has great attention to detail, and is very honest. If there is something wrong with the property, you better believe he's going to find it. He takes the time and does a thorough job. I highly recommend him!"

"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."

"It was a very good service. It was nice and quick. He provided the details and he found the issue, he provided the feedback of the house to the previous owner and there is no issue. He is precise and specific, inspect every detail of the house, he helped us to estimate the furnace, old pipes before gone into this thing, and it is very helpful to us a lot. I would recommend him to any other people who would be needing any inspection in their real estate property. Very professional kind of customer service. Very good price and very affordable."

"I had a hard time contacting this company at first but when they finally responded, the service was great. Chuck met with me and explained what he thought would work best for the crawlspace in our new home. We originally wanted to install drain tile to avoid any possible water seepage in the future but he told us it wasn't necessary. Unlike PermaSeal who tried to sell us everything under their roof! Buyer beware of PermaSeal! Anyway, Chuck offered to provide a payment plan since we couldn't afford it all in one lump sum. We had a few issues at the beginning with things unrelated to them but Chuck was very responsive and advised us regarding some issues with our village permit. Even though we called and e-mailed him several times in one day, he maintained his great customer service. We finally scheduled an appointment and then had to re-schedule which they accommodated. The day they showed up, they came a bit late but Chuck sent a message letting us know. He showed up to check out the installation as well and warn us of the strong smell of the foam to see if we wanted to leave the house. We stayed but the foam smell was very strong for a few weeks and even up to today, we have not used it yet due to the smell. We may not end up using the crawlspace for storage as originally planned because we've noticed there's still a lot of insects getting through there since we left the entrance open for the smell to dissipate. Well, the crawlspace looks good and we are very happy that they installed a light switch by the entrance and a bulb in the middle so we could see the entire space if we want to go in there. We also got excited when Chuck mentioned they would do a radon test to show us the difference with the insulation. This has not been done yet but I hope they still come out and do it. I really enjoyed working with Chuck. He is a great guy and I highly recommend using this company. Stay away from PermaSeal! I say this because they tried to take advantage of us prior to us contacting this company."

"Chuck asked all the right questions before giving a quote and gave us multiple options to address the problem leaks. His serviceman, Josh, was courteous and professional, clean and efficient. They filled two basement cracks with the injection sealant and we are pleased with the results. I would use them again.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Many radon fans carry a five-year manufacturer's warranty. That said, your radon fan should last between five and ten years. Regular inspections will ensure the fan is operating properly. Unusual or exceptional noise coming from the fan or indications on your manometer or system monitor can immediately tell you that something is amiss.

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.

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.
