"A1 and Andrew were great. Returned my call right away, gave me a fair bid, what I should expect, and a date to come out. They called ahead of time, and did quality work. Don’t hesitate to use them. I got lucky. I found out I had lung cancer and did a radon test. Don’t hesitate to do a radon test, and use A1 if appropriate. Thanks."

"Rapid Restoration was excellent to work with on a water damage issue I had discovered. They worked with me on cleaning an affected surface as well as air quality testing so we could have exact information for the best health of the home. They were able to get started the same day and were professional and wonderful to work with from the first phone call through the completion of the job. Chad is very knowledgeable and his crew was great. It turned out that we did not need to take additional steps for remediation because the diagnostics came back without concerns. I appreciated that this team had the skill and abilities to provide information and work up possible plans from "best case to worst case scenario" then take the most fitting action. We found a perfect result for the home at much lower cost than could have been the case without such an honest exam. I had two other companies out to look and Rapid stood out in terms of timing, communication, assessment, and an efficient plan. I couldn't be happier and will definitely call them again and highly recommend them!"

"Very nice company to work with. Wayne came by within a day to do an estimate which was in line with others I checked. We had radon levels according to my AirThings Radon Detector of between 5-8 pCi/L; as we have a fairly large footprint and no drain tile they could hook into he suggested a larger fan unit just to be on the safe side. Estimate was $1400 with the larger fan and a sump seal. Wayne answered all of my questions clearly and responded to email when I had additional questions. I had to wait about 2 weeks on the install as they were fairly busy. Roger the co-owner handles the installs and he came along with an additional helper. They took about 4 hours on the job and did some nice work including some fancy snaking of the exhaust to get it above the roof line. Wayne they handles the final test and he came by about 2 weeks later to do the testing. He ran a 48 hour test that yielded an average reading of around 1.8 pCi/L - I had hoped for a bit better reading but it was well under the 4 recommended by EPA guidelines so I couldn't really complain. I noted that the AirThings detector I had gave a very similar average reading. The good news is that over time I'm seeing the average reading on my meter improving and I show a long term reading now of about 1 pCi/L and often have short term daily readings close to 1/2 of that. Overall very pleased with the work and results."

"Sam was on time for the estimate appointment that was scheduled. He was very friendly and professional. He was not pushy in any form. On the day of the scheduled service appointment he showed up ready to work and was again very friendly and easy to communicate with. He got the work done in a very reasonable amount of time and his electrician showed up on time and was the same. We will have our after mitigation radon testing done and I will update my review then."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter. 

Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.

The fan that pulls the radon out of the air needs to run continuously, so you may see an increase in your electric bill once you install the mitigation system. Additionally, you may see an increase in your heating or cooling bills, as the fan can cause some loss of hot or cool air.

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.

You can vent radon out of your house sometimes by simply opening a window, but it won’t remove the source, and will likely rise above recommended levels quickly. A professional will be needed to assess your home, and determine the best strategy for radon removal. Active radon sump pumps and soil depressurization systems are often used to forcefully vent the radon from your home.

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is present everywhere, complete avoidance is impossible. 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 preventative measures if your home's radon levels are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.
