Customers say: Quick response

"This is our first time buying a home and everything I read online made me feel I wasn't likely to find an inspector who actually took the time needed to really look at everything and give us a good inspection. I looked at 4 websites of inspection companies and chose Omega. The website provided information about Stuart and what his inspection covers. Our first call with him was pleasant and he was upfront about all the answers to our questions and the pricing. There were no surprises. He arrived early for the inspection, really took his time to examine, poke and test everything. He walked us through what he was looking at and explained any problems or lack of problems. He was very thorough and we'd recommend him to anyone! We'd also use him again if we have the need. You won't be disappointed with his service in any way!"

"I hired Erickson Foundation for radon mitigation. Job went smoothly. They communicated well, were very professional, and reviewed all potential options for the job with me. The system installation was done on time, professionally done, and well cleaned-up. The equipment is high quality, with the 10-year warranty being a big plus."

"Radon Systems LLC did a great job. I had a radon level of around 6.5 in my basement for years, and finally decided I needed to address it. After receiving 3 quotes, I had Dave from Radon Systems come over to do the job. I initially was resigned to having the PVC pipe go up the side of my house, but Dave found a way to run the piping inside the basement and go thru the garage, with only 18" of PVC sticking up past the garage roof. Excellent! And now my radon level is around 1.0 to 1.5 all the time. The entire job took half a day, and Dave was clean, respectful and easy to work with. I absolutely recommend them."

"George and his team were extremely friendly and professional. This is a good group of people. Courteous and thoughtful, they were able to do a complete installation of both systems from scratch in about 6 hours.
The new radon remediation system (Bubble Up) has the added benefit of boosting the fixture pressure in the house to city level or better (60-75psi) as well as completely resolving the pH level of the water.
The cost was slightly lower than the other two quotes we received, partially due to the fact that Absolute offered a "multi-system" discount since two systems were going in at the same time.
If in your service area, I would highly recommend George Doumit of Absolute Water System.

"I have worked with many contractors,plumbers,electricians, etc. in my time owning two homes. On here in New England and the other in Pembroke Pines,FL. These gentlemen from rhino radon services were deffinelty personable and proffesional I felt like my home was in good hands with this company. After calling around and having a job scheduled with another mitigation company I was blown off and left with a short deadline. Luckily after speaking with Henri from rhino radon they were able to squeeze me right in your schedule the very next day even though they had two other jobs scheduled they showed up at 5pm and still completed the job to ensure I met my closing date, if your looking for a standout and accommodating radon company I would say look no farther then rhino radon. I was very pleased with the service I recieved. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

"DENNIS (OWNER) WAS VERY PROMPT AND THE ROOF WAS CLEARED PRETTY QUICKLY. HE WAS A LITTLE GRUFF AT FIRST, WHEN HE WAS AFRAID I CALLED HIM ALL THE WAY OUT JUST TO GIVE ME ADVICE (HE DIDN'T GET THE FIRST-TIME HOMEOWNER HAND-HOLDING THING, I GUESS), BUT OTHER THAN THAT WAS FRIENDLY. HE WAS HAPPY TO GIVE ADVICE ON UPCOMING ROOF REPAIR NEEDS, AND SEEMS LIKE HE WORKS WITH OWNERS RATHER THAN AROUND THEM. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY WERE MORE THAN ASSIDUOUS ABOUT REMOVING ICICLES, AND SOME SHINGLES AND SIDING WERE (VERY MINORLY) DAMAGED IN THE PROCESS."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. 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 action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

The soil beneath your house is most likely what’s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it’s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn’t been through periodic radon tests, such as well water. Over time, the radon from the soil can inhabit other parts of your house like the foundation or plumbing.

Yes, many systems include warranties for performance. Confirm terms with your installer.

A homeowner can install a radon mitigation system on their own. But it’s a challenging DIY that requires a lot of knowledge about radon mitigation as well as familiarity with local regulations. You do not want to risk an improper installation that leaves the system unable to detect radon or gives it a shortened life span. Relying on a professional is the surest way to guarantee a successful installation.

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.
