"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."
"The tech was very friendly and the price was unbeatable! The tech was early and i felt like he took his time to ensure the inspection was VERY thorough!! his report was easy to read and i he was so detailed; my realtor and I were VERY impressed. definately FIVE STARS!"

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.
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 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).
Many radon fans carry a five-year manufacturer's warranty. That said, your radon fan should last between five and ten years. Regular inspections will ensure the fan is operating properly. Unusual or exceptional noise coming from the fan or indications on your manometer or system monitor can immediately tell you that something is amiss.
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.
