Lexington Radon Mitigation

Gerald explained everything I needed and wanted to know before starting the job. He was meticulous with his work and used high quality materials. I recommend without reservation. Great job!!!

Well. Gerald and another fireman came when they said they would, were thoughtful in the approach they suggested and listened well. We hired a electrician separately to install outdoor outlet. Gerald's dog "Radon" supervised the work.

Good experience: We purchased our home a few years ago and it was marketed as having a radon mitigation system though we weren't sure where it was. Decided to test in December 2016 and discovered that radon levels in our home were high. Apex attempted reasonable incremental steps without jumping to recommend an entirely new mitigation system and I appreciated that approach. They determined that the fan in our attic was actually set to reverse (!!) and recommended a new fan given the size of our home. Installation was quick. We tried that for a few weeks but the numbers remained high (I purchased a digital radon reader after those initial tests.) So Gerry and Nate returned to provide with me a quote on a new system after spending a lot of time hashing out the best placement, determining if the old system could be salvaged in any way, etc. Our big problem was that our basement was fully finished and they were sensitive to the fact that a new system would require cutting into our carpet, our drywall, and the side of the house. They sent their quote within 2 days and it was very reasonable. They began by attempting to remediate the old system but after some investigation, it appeared that the old radon mitigation system hadn't been a system at all - it was incomplete and in short, the house had no means of venting of radon - an unpleasant discovery. Gerry and Nate subsequently proceeded to install the new mitigation system. The new system took a long time (8 hrs) to install due to idiosyncracies in our home's layout and issues within the walls but they contended with all "surprises" and at the end of the day I had a new mitigation system. Within 36 hrs, my radon reading dropped from 17-18 to 0.8. It seems to work!!

They did a great job -- fixed the problem while minimizing expense. Seemed genuinely interested in coming up with the best solution.

The work was done by the two owners of the business. They were polite, professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. The job was completed in a timely manner and with quality materials. They treated my home with care and cleaned up after themselves. I'm very pleased with the work.
