"I had a great experience with Stay Gone Radon. They handled my radon gas test quickly and professionally, and the technician took time to explain the process and results in detail. Everything was done on schedule, and the report was clear and easy to understand. I’d highly recommend them to anyone needing radon testing. excellent service from start to finish."

"I have used Ray and Legacy now on 3 of my homes.  We have moved throughout NC and several occasions and Ray comes and fixes it for us.  In this last project we didnt know what we had on our hands but it onlt took a phone call to them and they came out and met with us.  Ray feels like part of the family so we trusted his advice.  We were a little shocked by the price and had to carefully weigh the pro's and con's.  We knew it was alot of work but we felt we had the best contractor in town, so we decided to hire them to handle everything for us.  The experience was long (but in the allotted timeframe), but the work was great and we are both very pleased with everything.  There was a minor issue with a few doors after the remodel but it just took a phone call and everything was made right.  Im happy to be able to recommend these guys and look forward to working with them again in the future when things come up

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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 average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.

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.

If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.

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.
