David Silver, IEP/LMA; holds New York State licensing as a mold assessor, he also has first hand personal experience with molds affecting the health of loved ones in not one but two homes. He has undergone the process of water damage and mold discovery countless times and had his own home undergo extensive demolition, removal of molds, cleaning and rebuilding. He brings a much needed level of empathy to those who are embarking on this kind of endeavor. He recognizes and is sensitive to the high level stress and financial cost this can bring.

"David was not only proficient and professional with a high level of expertise but had such deep heartfelt compassion and empathy for my situation. It was a refreshing and comforting experience to work with David. Given all the unknowns, David's patience and ability to educate me on the potential outcomes really helped to settle me down. I like to know what I'm facing and I feel like David and First Stop Environmental gave me life affirming choices. Thank you."

"Assessment done for mold found near crawl space. Gary was fabulously helpful, even helped move some boxes out of the closet where the crawl space entrance is. He took the time to explain everything, had a sensor that can detect moisture through the wall (drywall in this case), had helpful suggestions, was very thorough in checking the nearby rooms and garage with the sensor. And he's just a nice man, a mensch. I would absolutely hire him again if needed. Thank you, Gary!"

"It went great. Alex brought the test kit to my house on a Saturday morning (!) as planned at the time he said he would arrive and placed it in a good position. He gave me clear instructions for the test. They were very easy to follow. He emailed information about the test beforehand and also gave me status on the test results. He also gave me the test report as soon as they were available. I did not have to follow up at all. I am very pleased with the service provided. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to anyone."

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.

Properties should ideally be tested for radon every 2 to 5 years or sooner when changes to the property structure or ventilation occur that might impact airflow.

Radon is the number one non-smoking cause of lung cancer in the United States, but it can cause some other concerning side effects in the meantime. If you have a raspy voice, chest pains, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or any of the above, don’t hesitate to perform radon testing and install a mitigation system as soon as possible.

You can buy DIY radon test kits from a home improvement store and conduct radon testing, but these tests are often inaccurate. No matter the result, you should supplement DIY testing with professional radon detection and analysis. DIYers only have access to passive radon tests, which aren’t as reliable as active tests that professionals use. Plus, it’s very easy for DIYers to make mistakes during testing, leading to inaccurate results. If you’re moving into a new home, have concerns about radon, or are due for an updated test, hire a professional. 

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.
