"I recently purchased a foreclosure which tested with elevated levels of Radon during the home inspection. There were some companies that offered significantly less expensive solutions, but not impressed as their bids provided no information and would have been out the basement and up the side of the home which does not look very nice. Midwest Radom came out and we found a route out the basement, through the garage up through unfinished attic space, and out the roof which allowed the exit pipe to come out the roof on the backside of the home. This was actually decided upon during the initial install when we discovered the original solution presented by the estimator was not workable. They were not going to put firestop collars because I live in MO and "that is not required by code" even though I had discussed it with the owner when I first called, because I had done my homework and learned they are important and asked for them. They were going to charge more, but ended up honoring their original offer which I appreciate and feel is reasonable for some 4" PVC pipe, 2 X 2 plastic sheet, 4" radon fan, vacuum gauge, 2 fire collars, and 1 roof penetration flashing with 3-4 hours of labor with 2 technicians. They had to do a penetration from the basement to the garage and from the garage to the attic space. They pulled from an existing outlet for power for the fan and a final penetration out the roof. It took 2 trips to complete the work because it was raining or snowing the first trip they made. They charged $1005.00 for the job and took less than 4 hours to complete. They also performed a follow-up test which showed a decrease in Radon levels in the safe range. I highly recommend Midwest Radon because their price was fair for a good job done to my expectations based on industry best practices which are higher than what the state of Missouri presently requires."

"In addition to 2inch thick Thermal Shield with insulation of my rim joists they completed, I also hired them to complete my Radon Testing and then [based upon the results] just had them install their Radon Remediation System - Judd was excellent to work with and did listen to my basement unique needs and completed all the work as requested. I would recommend them for both of these services they offer."

"I would definitely recommend this company to anyone!!! I hired them and the job was done nicely, Dan O'Brien was the technician who took care of the project and he did an excellent job, he answered all of my questions and explained to me everything related to Radon gas. When he finished setting everything up and the job was completed all the working area looked super clean and the installation looks just like it is part of the house and that has been there forever. This is what I call a Perfect and Complete execution of a Radon gas mitigation project."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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).

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the system and property layout.

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.

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 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.
