Get matched with top radon detection and reduction specialists in Hampton, NJ

"It is my absolute pleasure to write this raving review for Benedict Ugorji (the owner) at Radon Shield LLC and I make no commission recommending him. The radon level was 1.8 pCi/L when I bought my home in Holmdel, NJ, in February 2021. I wanted to lower the radon level for personal health reasons (I have a young 3 year old) not for a real estate transaction (goal level <4 pCi/L). Safe levels were established in the 1970s (The history, development and the present status of the radon measurement programme in the United States of America. Radiat Prot Dosimetry 2015; 167(1-3): 8-14) so maybe new safe levels should be lower than the current recommendation to reflect available technologies for radon mitigation as there is no safe level. I spent $700+ for a new Fantech Rn4EC-4 fan and to seal the French drain serviced through RAdata in Flanders, NJ, and the level was unchanged at 1.6 and 1.9 pCi/L after servicing. RAdata is a disorganized business that will recommend the most expensive system (the energy recovery ventilator) that costs $3000 that other radon companies (I got two second opinions) will say that it does not work. Then RAdata proposed to install a second mitigation system right next to the current system, but could not intelligently justify why the second system would be right adjacent to the current system where there is already subterranean air flow generated by the current system instead of tackling the no subterranean air flow zone at the farthest end of the basement. Please refer to my review about RAdata on Yelp and Facebook and my subsequent reply to their response for details. I kept looking for another radon company and fortunately I found a gem in the unscrupulous radon business. The gem is Benedict whom I unwaveringly and unequivocally recommend. Benedict is responsive – he patiently listened about my radon situation and collected information about my pre and post service radon level and even information down to the granular level like what make and model fan RAdata installed. Benedict came to my home for the consultation, to run the diagnostic tests, he proposed solutions and offered his rational, he did the installation of the second mitigation system (in the area of the basement with no subterranean air flow) from start to finish by himself, he used a more powerful and cheaper fan for the second system (than the one RAdata installed for my first system), and he guaranteed to lower the radon to a specified level in his contract. Benedict charges one flat service fee (whereas RAdata charges the first hour and then at 15 min increments so you are discouraged from asking questions). Benedict took his time to explain to me about how a fan’s performance (like moving air measured in cubic feet per minute or CFM) is affected by your soil’s static pressure (the value on your u-tube manometer). He even followed up with me on a Saturday via text message about the short term radon level measured with the Corentium radon detector (while the charcoal kits are being sampled) and guided me through interpreting the short versus long term average as the values were quite different. We touched based again when the charcoal test came back and the levels were an astonishing 0.5 and 0.6 pCi/L!!!"

"Radon Shield did a wonderful job with radon remediation in our basement - our level was below 4.0 but we wanted it even lower. Benedict and his team worked efficiently and carefully, and our radon level is now 0.3 upon repeat testing after fan installation. They are professional and reliable - highly recommend their services."

"If you want detail, expertise, professionalism, and a savvy customer experience for your home inspection look no further than this man. He is a gem in this field and worth every penny."

"I chose this company based on Angies list reviews and it did not steer me wrong. His schedule was accomodating and we were able to book a time within just a few days from my call. On the day of the inspection Peter called me and let me know he might be a few minutes late (which I appreciated) but he showed up a few minutes ahead of schedule. He was very thorough and made sure that we understood whatever he was showing us before moving on. He was meticulous and spent most of his time on the exterior and basment as that is where the majority of major issues would be. In this case their happened to be a huge drainage problem. He was very knowledgeable but was careful to state his boundries when dealing with structure problems. He suggested that we pull the permits for any work that was done and to contact a structural engineer. We didnt even get that far because we pulled out the day after his report was sent. The report was completed within 48 hours and was 48 pages long. Obvisouly not all of it was extermely important details, but necessary nonetheless. Peter was also careful not to provide us with opinions, but rather focus on providing us all of the relevant information so that we could make our own informed decision. I'll be calling him again soon when we find another home to purchase.

"I would definitely recommend this inspector again. He was extremely knowledgeable & professional.."

"Very thorough inspection, uncovered several issues that I missed when looking at the home"

"They did a really good job."

"Vinny at View Master Home Inspections was AMAZING! As first-time homeowners Vinny was great! We would RECOMMEND using him as your home inspector. Not only was he knowledgeable, but he took the extra time to explain what he was doing, and to answer all our questions (there were many). The process was not rushed and was very thorough. We feel that Vinny genuinely cared about helping us make the right decision on the home we were purchasing. After the inspection, he provided us with a detailed report and took time to walk us through it. His report put us in a very good position to negotiate the price of our home and allowed us to ask, with confidence, for credits, which we received. In the end, we ended save more money than we paid for Vinny’s services from the credits we received – Many, many times over! Do yourself a favor and call Vinny at View Master Home Inspection. You will be glad you did!"

"Efficient and friendly crew in sales and installation at GO GREEN. A/C failed in the depths of heat wave. We were up and running again with all new equipment within just a few days from my initial phone call."
