I established Bay & Beyond Inspection Services in May 2018 after a 25 year career as an electrician in the Air Force and 13 years as a Maine code enforcement officer. I have received extensive training and continuing education courses to keep up with the ever changing construction industry. I have an associates degree in electrical mechanical technologies and am a state certified third-party inspector for all phases of construction. I am a state certified septic system inspector and hold national and state certifications as a radon testing and analytical lab. I am a member of International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI) and the Maine Building Officials and Inspectors Association (MBOIA). So what does all this mean to you, my customer? I am a highly trained and experienced inspector that works only for you, my customer. I don't work for real estate agents or any other third party involved with the property you hired me to inspect. You will receive an unbiased and honest report detailing what I observed during the inspection. This is not a pass/fail rating, but detailed information that will provide you with the confidence you need to make one of your biggest investment decisions of your life. Rest assured that I will inspect your property no differently than I would if I were purchasing the property myself. This is my promise to you. Tod Rosenberg, Owner

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Ideally, no one will live in a house with elevated radon levels, as prolonged exposure increases the risk of serious health issues like lung cancer. However, homes with radon can be made safe through mitigation systems, such as active soil depressurization. Testing for radon regularly and addressing high levels helps ensure a safe living environment.

Radon is the number one non-smoking cause of lung cancer in the United States, but it can cause some other concerning side effects in the meantime. If you have a raspy voice, chest pains, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or any of the above, don’t hesitate to perform radon testing and install a mitigation system as soon as possible.

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.

The only way to determine if you have a radon problem in your home is to have professional testing done. You can buy DIY radon test kits, but these are sometimes inaccurate in certain temperatures and humidity levels, and they don’t paint the entire picture in terms of your radon exposure. Scheduling testing once every two to five years is best. You can also look out for the following symptoms, which, according to the American Cancer Society, are symptoms of radon exposure:

  • Shortness of breath

  • Cough

  • Tightness in the chest

  • Difficulty swallowing

  • Hoarseness

Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.
