"I'd already gotten my test results of radon gas being at 7.8 in my house, so Affordable Environmental Services was one of the companies I called about getting an estimate. The owner came out that afternoon and was on time, was very courteous and professional. I was immediately impressed with the time he spent to examine everything carefully, taking notes. I had a lot of questions and he answered all of them--he was very knowledgeable. He sketched out how he would design the system, which I liked. Within a few hours of his visit, he emailed me a proposal and called to see if I had any questions. His price was in line with the other estimates I got and I decided to go with AES because I could tell by how thoroughly he examined and explained everything that he'd do a good job, and he did. He showed up on time and worked very hard installing the system. He did an outstanding job, cleaned everything up thoroughly and I couldn't have asked for more. The system brought the radon level down to 1.1 which is lower than we thought. I recommend this company highly for their promptness, professionalism and good work."

"Mark is very thorough and explains findings well. Took his time and when he picked up the radon tests a few days later, he took another look at the exterior as it was raining the day of the inspection. Great customer service."

"This is the third time I've had Joseph perform an inspection for me in the last three years. You will find my previous reviews elsewhere on Home Advisor. His first inspection saved me from purchasing a house with many issues that the sellers failed to disclose. They initially declared that they would not negotiate on anything, but when he was finished they were rushing to backpedal and begged me not to cancel my offer. The sale was cancelled the same day he was done with his inspection. His second inspection ended in my purchasing my current home, and after three years I remain very satisfied with the purchase. This latest inspection was done in order to renew my insurance. I was asked for a 4-point but based on his expertise, he recommended I also do the wind mitigation since it might be asked at some point. Turns out, it will be needed after all, and his recommendation saved me from having to do this twice. So I have used Joseph's services for years, and he's always delivered even if asked to do so in short notice, with time constraints, while being flexible and accommodating when it comes to scheduling the work. I haven't had reason to complain about his services yet, and I will continue to call him first whenever I require any sort of home inspection."

And pricing..it's more than reasonable for the service quality we received. 100% recommended. Thank you, Jonathan!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. 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 action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

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.

Installing a mitigation system reduces radon levels, which can cause lung cancer, providing peace of mind and long-term health benefits. It can also increase your home’s value, as many buyers prefer properties with radon safety measures in place. The investment is relatively low compared to the potential health risks associated with prolonged radon exposure.

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).

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.
