"Tim was quick to respond to my Anji request and came out within a couple days to set up the radon testing equipment. He was knowledgeable, communicated very well, and returned promptly to read the test and explain the results. I was very pleased with this radon pro. I would highly recommend him."
"Russ was awesome and so pleasant to work with. I didn't really understand Radon at the time so he took his time to explain it in detail. I highly recommend his services for radon testing!"
"Very reasonably priced, professional, thorough and responsive. All we needed was a radon inspection, but I wouldn't hesitate to hire Bill again should a need arise -- and I highly recommend him."
"Best home inspection ever. He showed up early, walkes us through every thing he saw as a current problem and/or building code violation and the next day I had a very detailed outline with poctures for every thing he saw wrong with the home. Three days later I had the radon report. Best building inspector I've ever had the pleasure to work with and at a great price."
Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts
No, radon mitigation systems do not decrease home value or make a home harder to sell. In areas where homes experience similar radon exposure risks, a radon mitigation system is viewed as an improvement. Potential homebuyers often opt to buy a home with a radon mitigation system already installed to reduce the risk of cancer for their families.
While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.
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.
If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.
A homeowner can install a radon mitigation system on their own. But it’s a challenging DIY that requires a lot of knowledge about radon mitigation as well as familiarity with local regulations. You do not want to risk an improper installation that leaves the system unable to detect radon or gives it a shortened life span. Relying on a professional is the surest way to guarantee a successful installation.
