"Radon Abatement services is a reliable dependable superb company. I have had an excellent experience from start to finish. Scheduling was easy and expeditious, service was professionally and very well done. Most importantly, Radon is gone with its in-house level reduced to almost its outside level. John Swett was very helpful and kindly answered all my emails and quickly addressed every concern I had. This project could not have been done better."

"I'm completely satisfied with the work that John's team did. They were extremely professional and knowledgeable. The workmanship is superb. Best of all, the system works as promised and reduced the radon concentration based on subsequent tests. I could not recommend them more highly."

"Ryan was right on time both for the dropoff and pickup for doing a Radon test of my basement. He's a great communicator and is very personable! He was able to give me a fair assessment of the test results this time, how they related to the results I had gotten at closing of my home, giving me all the info necessary to feel comfortable on my plan of action. I would highly recommend him!"

"Very friendly, professional crew from the local area. I got the quote from Peter and had the system installed within a week. Very clean and solid installation. Time will tell how effective it is (still need to wait 48 hours to test the radon levels again) but I'm able to hear the fan through the drain (they covered the grate with a one-way drain) at the opposite corner of the house so it's definitely getting good coverage. No issues at all, I'd recommend them to anyone with either high radon levels or those just trying to reduce the radon levels in their living space!"

"Chris was WONDERFUL! I just purchased a home and wanted to have a mold inspection done for peace of mind. Chris took time to explain the process and put my fears at ease with his vast knowledge. He reviewed the test results with me prior to closing which gave me the peace of mind I needed to confirm I was making a good purchase and great investment. I highly recommend Mid Atlantic Commercial Residential Real Estate Solutions. VERY PROFESSIONAL AND COURTEOUS!!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

Your radon mitigation system may be loud because it’s time to replace it. Any sounds are usually from the inline fan that helps create the vacuum and resulting airflow. If you hear a new, loud mechanical or humming noise from your radon fan, it might be time to replace it. Most fans used in radon mitigation systems last up to 10 years, but may need to be replaced sooner.

Radon detection is crucial as prolonged exposure to radon gas, a leading cause of lung cancer, poses significant health risks in residential environments.

The natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

No, radon mitigation systems do not decrease home value or make a home harder to sell. In areas where homes experience similar radon exposure risks, a radon mitigation system is viewed as an improvement. Potential homebuyers often opt to buy a home with a radon mitigation system already installed to reduce the risk of cancer for their families.
