He was early to the inspection, took the time not only to inspect our new house thoroughly (no rushed feel), but also answered all of our questions as first-time home buyers in a very personable manner. He even inspected the roof despite the rain! Pricing was very reasonable and included all of the work we needed (added radon and pest). His thorough report came as promised later that day, and he answered follow-up questions we had afterward. We felt confident in our decision to move forward with our home purchase because of Bill's outstanding work. It shows that Bill really cares about his work and enjoys what he does. Excellent service, thank you!"

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.
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.
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.
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.
Mitigation can take several days depending on home setup, equipment accessibility, and achieving effective diffusion system sealed efficiency.
