"Jim at Premier Inspections Plus did a fantastic job on our home inspection. He was thorough, easy to talk to, and took the time to answer all of our questions. We especially appreciated the videos he provided, which made it much easier to understand the items he found and review them later. He also handled our radon test and clearly explained the results and what they meant. The inspection never felt rushed, and Jim did a great job pointing out both areas of concern and routine maintenance items. His attention to detail gave us confidence moving forward with our home purchase. We'd gladly recommend Jim and Premier Inspections Plus to anyone needing a home inspection."

"Radon gas in my house’s lower level was 3.6 picocuries per liter: below 4.0 pCi/L, at which EPA urges remediation, but high enough that it’s recommended. Beginning a week after SWAT installed gas elimination system (for $850), radon level dropped to 0.3 pCi/L: about the same amount of radon as is found in fresh air. Nuff said."

"I hired Double Check to do an inspection for a personal decision of "Repair or Replace". Justin came out, performed the inspection, took photographs and answered all my questions. He found some issues like a few shingles missing, popped nailheads and the like. We discussed the Repair or Replace decision. Very knowledgeable and easy to deal with. Highly recommended."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.

The lifespan of a radon mitigation system depends on the type of system and its maintenance. With proper care, a system can last for many decades. Passive systems tend to last longer as they have fewer components that require replacement. Active systems, which have more moving parts like fans, generally have a shorter lifespan. For instance, water filtration devices and active pressurization systems require more frequent maintenance. While the system as a whole is durable, the radon fan in an active system typically has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years and will need to be replaced. As long as the fan is working, the mitigation system should function correctly.

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.

Radon is present almost everywhere but, like sunlight, the concentration levels and how often you are exposed to it have a large part to play in just how dangerous it is. There are levels of radon that are acceptable inside a house, but above a certain limit, radon becomes a serious radioactive hazard that is a known cause of lung cancer. In fact, radon exposure is the number two leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking).
