"Called super quick to set up a testing date, had an opening fast! Arrived early to the appointment, gave a nice heads up text, "be there in 15 minutes." Polite and respectful, kind, informative and very knowledgeable, super patient with my millions of questions. High integrity, informed me of a couple of simple cheap DIY repairs in my basement that would be beneficial to make the radon system last longer when he didn't have to. Gave quote and timing of project right there and then, no waiting. Highly recommend this company!"

"Corey is great to work with. He gave an accurate estimate, was quick to respond to our messages, and did a good job installing the radon mitigation system. Within 24 hours, our radon levels dropped from 15+ pCi/L to less than .5 pCi/L (and still dropping). Corey also ensures his work up to a year after install for free, which gives even greater peace of mind and value for our purchase."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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 natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter. 

Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.
