Sent pictures of system location on exterior of house before install which was a plus to be able to review the location. Installed system and checked radon levels after installing which reduced radon levels to near "0". Pleased with quality of work for the price and includes a five year warranty that compliance level will be maintained. Hid system in an area of the house where it is not very noticeable which was great.

We contacted Advanced Radon to obtain an estimate for the cost associated with installing a radon mitigation system on a property we were interested in purchasing. Jim was quick and responsive. He inspected the property and provided us with a free estimate. After closing on the purchase, we contacted Jim to complete the work. He was professional and courteous throughout the entire process. The estimate was right on target and the results were immediate! We will continue to recommend them to friends and family!

Jim and his co-worker were amazing. They were able to install the system so it was not located outside of the house. They were efficient and extremely professional. The radon levels went from over 14 to under 1. I would highly recommend them to other homeowners.

I contacted Advanced Radon and worked with the Jim throughout, including repairs. Communication was good, although delayed at times. He had a good idea what my problem was and had me take pictures and send them to him which saved us both time and energy. We discussed what I wanted, what my goals were and Jim gave me a bid, knowing it could deviate some. He completed the repairs and upgraded my setup. Originally he thought he might need to do more upgrades. In the meantime he researched the set up I had and concluded that it was effective. Therefore, he did not cost me time and money for upgrades I did not need. I appreciate this. The bill was close to the estimate. I got what I needed and met my goals. It was not an unpleasant experience and I would use Jim again.

Jim Holiday, the owner-operator was able to meet with me the day after I first called. I told him that I had conducted to test for radon and that both tests came back with a elevated reading of 10 (the EPA says that any radon reading over 4.0 should be corrected) Jim said that he could correct my problem and that he could schedule the remediation in approx one week. He was willing to work with me to find a location in my house that would minimize the visual impact of the PVC pipe. We opted for a install next to the chimney and going all the way to the roof line., approximately 30 feet. The installation went smoothly without any mess in my basement. The end result was a radon reduction from 10.0 to 0.4. Needless to say, I was a happy camper!

Jim Holiday is the BEST! He installed a interior system in our house from the basement up thru and out of the 2nd floor. If you didn't see the pipe in the corner of our garage you would never know that we had a radon system in the house! The whole process was done neatly and professionally. We would highly recommend Advanced Radon Services for anyone needing a system!

Out of 3 companies who came out to give us estimates, we chose Advanced Radon because they provided the most ideal service at the lowest price. The other companies wanted to send a pipe up that would be visible in the garage, then go through the attic and out of the roof. Advanced made the extra effort to identify a way that they could hide the pipe completely, so that it is only visible in the basement. We loved this idea, and it came at an even better price than the companies who wanted to have an exposed pipe coming into the garage. The pipe comes out of the roof and is not visible from the front, or even back, of the house. If you stand in one certain spot you can see the pipe and it blends in with the pre existing hardward unnoticeably. Jim was a great help. He came out to give us the estimate personally, while some companies sent their technicians, rather than the owner. He also worked with us to find a time to come install and the installation went very quickly. We really appreciated their great service.

I was able to have an appointment for the initial test very soon after my call. Jim arrived promptly and explained the process very well. He returned to pick up the equipment and printed out the results, He then examined my home to determine the type of system which could be installed. Everything was explained very well. He emailed the results and estimate to me and we decided on a date for the work. The work was done very quickly and everything was completed to my satisfaction. A final test of the radon levels revealed they were very low. Jim was wonderful to work with. He was very prompt and accommodating. Everything was explained thoroughly. I am completely satisfied. I would highly recommend this company.

We had purchased a radon detector which gave us a reading of 29.6 in our newly finished basement. Since the EPA recommends 4.0 or less in your house, we knew we needed to do something. Jim responded to my call promptly and came by within a few days to give us an estimate. A week and a half later, he installed a system and our readings are now below 1.0. It was pretty amazing how fast the system cleared the radon -- the reading was 1.2 only two days after he installed. We elected to have the fan and pipe mounted on the back corner of our house rather than routing it through the attic and out the roof which would have cost more and sounded pretty difficult. This was completely our choice; Jim was happy to do either way. In retrospect, I think we should have had him mount the fan in the attic and send the pipe out the roof. The fan and pipe on the back of our house are unattractive and hard to miss from the deck. Jim was courteous, professional, and easy to trust. He gave us a couple of options and there was no pressure. He did an exceptional job and we are glad we called him.
Description of Work: Jim with Advanced Radon installed a sub-slab depressurization system in our basement. A hole was drilled in the slab and a 3" PVC suction pipe installed to route from the basement to exterior. A fan was mounted on the outside of our house along with the discharge pipe. He also sealed our sump lid.

We are very pleased with the service provided by Advanced Radon Services. Jim was professional and thorough. We appreciated the complimentary estimate and that he took the time to walk us through each step of the process. Our home proved to be a challenge and we were impressed by how Jim handled the situation and worked hard to successfully identify the source of radon and reduce the radon level to below 1.0 (previously, it had been up to 16.0 in some areas of the home!). We are confident in the quality of Jim's work and strongly recommend his company.

Advanced Radon Services were professional and concerned with correcting the radon problem. They were also concerned with maintaining the aesthetics of the home. Our home was meticulously cared for and we did not want pipes running up two stories on the exterior of our home. Jim suggested another solution and it worked GREAT. Strongly recommend using Advanced Radon Services!

From the beginning, Jim was responsive and very cordial and answering all questions and offering suggestions I had recently purchased a home with an existing system but it was not working. The fan was not operative, and the monitoring system to check if the system fan was working was not a standard method. Jim evaluated the present system, put in a new fan, and installed a easy to read u-tube monitor. He then left his detection equip in the home and the radon level monitoring over days had dropped to 0.7 average. Fantastic!! I was quite pleased. I also felt the cost was very reasonable, and a 5 yr warranty!! Thank you, Jim.

I am not a professional but it's my understanding there are two types of radon removal systems: active system or passive system. The only difference is the active system contains a fan that extracts the radon gas from beneath the foundation by providing a vacuum. Active systems are typically installed in homes that have relatively large foundation footprints. Passive systems vent the gas - performing like a fireplace chimney. Initially, I contacted three radon companies from Angie's List - Advanced Radon Services owner, Jim Holiday responded to my inquiry within 24 hours. In order to accommodate both of our schedules, an appointment to provide a bid for the work was scheduled ten days after our initial contact. Jim called in advance of our meeting to inform us he would arrive thirty minutes early. Originally, I intended to get several bids but once we met, I realized it wasn?t necessary. It was obvious he was familiar with our issue, confident in his recommendation, properly insured and his bid was, in my opinion, more than fair ? in fact, I thought his bid was low. The other two service providers originally contacted did not respond. My original inquiry included my email name, phone number, cell number and convenient times to contact me. Perhaps they were too busy. Without prompting, Jim recommended an active radon removal system be channeled through the interior of our home and out the roof ? a very difficult task considering the location of interior finished walls. That satisfied my number one concern. If you aren?t aware, radon removal requires a 5" or 6" white PVC pipe. It?s ugly and even uglier when mounted on the exterior of a home (huge pipe with metal fasteners bolted to an exterior wall) and routed around the soffit, extending higher than the gutter (as required by law). The sun will bleach the PVC pipe "yellow" within a month of installation. Exterior mounted systems are highly visible when installed. Granted it probably costs less but that hasn't been my experience having done this in a previous home. Perhaps the PVC can be painted but we didn't want to compromise and ruin the look of the brown stucco exterior. I expected to pay more because of the complex interior PVC pipe route and complex installation - from the hole drilled in the basement floor ? a pipe routed up the concrete foundation wall ? nestled through floor joists to the corner of the garage wall ? up the finished garage wall (yes, it?s visible in the garage) - through the garage ceiling ? through the attic - out the roof. The sump pump cover required a custom designed vent cover that was sealed with silicone. Each pipe entry / exit point had to be sealed. The roof exit required shingle removal, flashing installation and re-shingle work. The system is hardwired to the garage door electrical outlet mounted in the attic to supply the electricity to power the integrated fan. The fan actively removes the radon gas from beneath the basement floor, forcing it through the piping system and out the roof. It's very quiet but powerful. The routing was complicated work. Earlier, Jim had explained the work would take four hours and it was scheduled two weeks out. Jim and his crew arrived promptly on the scheduled date of installation. The active radon removal system was up and running in about 3 hours and 45 minutes. I believe this is the only work Advanced Radon Services performs, this plus the testing of course. It's obvious they knew exactly what they were doing. The completed retest radon readings were excellent ? almost non-existent. Start of process to end of process took about three weeks. Yes, it would have been great to call him one day and have the work completed the next day, of course, that's unreasonable In hindsight, I wouldn?t do it any other way because Jim Holiday is worth the wait.
Description of Work: An "active" radon removal system was professionally installed in a single family residential home. We own a newly constructed home - reverse 1 1/2 story (ranch) w/ 2300 finished sq. ft. on the main level. The walkout basement is the same size as the main floor w/ 1200 sq. ft. finished. Two bed rooms are located in the basement. When tested, the basement radon readings were six times the EPA allowable level. The basement contains a sump pump.

Radon levels in our house were at a 39. Had Advanced Radon come out to provide an estimate for an internal and external mitigation system. Decided to go with Advanced Radon. Ended up that we could not install an internal system without incurring additional expense related to adding new walls to hide it and tearing up carpet, etc. They came back to install an external system. They completed the work the day before Thanksgiving and only in a few hours. The painted all the external parts so that it would blend in with the house. Ideally we would have like to have an internal mount, but they made the external one blend in nicely with the exterior. The only drawback (reason I rated Good on responsiveness) is that they are very busy so I would have like to have it installed sooner, but hard to complain when there is a small business that is doing well. Radon levels are now at 2.9. Would recommend Jim Holliday & Advanced Radon. Good people!

We had Jim stop by and give the estimate. He evaluated the situation, and quickly determined the solutions which would both remove the radon and look good. We discussed several possibilities, and he was very open and honest about the solutions that would work and look better and why, and how much each would cost, based on if he needed to bring an assistant in or not. He explained what they'd have to do, and how long it would take (about 4 hours). On the day of the job, he arrived on time, and we waited only a few minutes for his assistant to arrive. They set about doing the job. They worked efficiently, and the job was finished on schedule. Everything went extremely well, and we are quite happy with the finished implementation. We had estimates from other people, but they involved extensive pipe-work outside the house, and all kinds of crazy wiring. Jim's intelligence and experience really paid off in that he could figure out how to bring the pipe through the inside of the house where it did not enter the upstairs living space. Plus, he could tap into preexisting wiring in the attic to avoid costly electrical work. One minor worry early on was that after he came out for the quote, we had to remind him to actually send the proposal in writing (via email). It had just slipped his mind, and turned out to be a trivial issue compared to the good job he (and his assistant) did in the implementation.

Jim was very responsive. Within an hour of emailing him a request for estimate, I had the estimate scheduled. (It's free!) He was extremely professional when providing the estimate walking me through why mitigation was important, how it would be and the best recommended option. I did choose an interior installation instead of the traditional tube out the exterior due to a unique roof line. The cost however even for the interior solution was comparable to standard installs or cheaper depending estimates I had received. On the install day, again Jim was professional and very neat. He left the areas he worked in in better shape than they had been when he was there. After completion, he walked me through the areas to explain what had been done. After the radon check, I went from an 11.8 to a 1.3. Overall I would recommend this company and Jim for anyone who needs radon mitigation. He was flexible with my schedule and cost effective. Thanks for the great work.
