"Target Radon was very responsive and they worked in increments. They replaced the motor first. When that was not enough the replaced the stack. They continued working until the problem was solved."

"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!!"

"I was very pleased with the service and work done by SWAT environmental. Lance was very helpful in explaining the process when he booked my appointment and the two techs who installed the radon remediation system were professional and courteous. The system itself isn't inconspicuous but I feel safer knowing that our radon levels are significantly lower now."

"Things went well. We had a poor sales experience due to a previous salesperson that did not fully disclose the situation I would experience, however Floodbusters did make the situation right and warrantied the product to ensure that my experience moving forward was the best it could be given the complexity of my basement situation. They continue to work with me and believe me if you have any situation like I do in regards to Iron Ore and the devastation it delivers to your waterproofing system, this crew through my experience is the team now to hire."

Jordan Bird was our inspector and came as a recommendation from our Realtor which was a great referral. He had everything laying out for us when we arrived to the home that we are in the process of purchasing. He asked us what our concerns were about the house and explained what he was going to do and that we could follow behind him if we would like to. I did stand with him for a concern I had with a wall but after that I figured I'd let the man just do his job. Jordan did stop half way through the inspection  to give us an update on what he had found so far which was considerate since these things can consume a little time and it was nice to know how it was going. Overall, he was clean, professional and very nice. My wife and I were very happy with him and the service he provided.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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 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.

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.

The cost to replace a radon fan ranges from $300 to $600 for the fan itself, with installation adding an additional $200 to $500. Overall, the total cost for replacement can range from $500 to $1,100, depending on factors such as the fan model, home size, and local labor rates. If the fan is part of a larger radon mitigation system, the price may be higher.
