"Mark Pierce was very helpful and thorough. We are moving from TX to NC and could not be there for the inspection but Mark called and went over everything he found concerning with us. We used them for the home inspection, water test and radon test and were very happy with their service."

"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

If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.

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.

Abatement includes sealing entry points and venting with systems that reduce radon levels below recommended EPA limits. It is handled by certified professionals.

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.

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.
