"You need to ask the technicians what to do and when regarding the re-test. The information we received was insufficient to know what to do afterwards and our re-test was delayed X 4 days because of lack of communication. Otherwise VERY Happy with the actual work and costs for the work."

"I had the pleasure of working with Oregon Restoration while purchasing my new home.  While working in the crawl space, a rather extensive amount of mold was found and I honestly had a few days of panic.  However I called Oregon Restoration and Ryan and his crew were so reassuring, they were quick to come over and assess the situation.  The clean up job they did was phenomenal!  You cannot tell there was ever any mold at all.  All staining is gone.  When I had the air quality tested after the treatment (since I have a baby) the samples inside the house were lower than the ambient outside readings.  I cannot say enough good things about this company.  They were always willing to discuss the job with me and to answer any questions that I had.  They were patient, reassuring and their work was excellent!  I will be recommending them every chance I get."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

No, air purifiers are not an effective way to reduce or remove radon. Radon is a radioactive, inert gas that cannot be filtered by standard air purifiers, which are designed to capture particulates like dust and mold. While an air purifier can improve indoor air quality by removing other pollutants, it should not be relied upon for radon. The only effective solution for high radon levels is a dedicated radon mitigation system.

Radon is present almost everywhere but, like sunlight, the concentration levels and how often you are exposed to it have a large part to play in just how dangerous it is. There are levels of radon that are acceptable inside a house, but above a certain limit, radon becomes a serious radioactive hazard that is a known cause of lung cancer. In fact, radon exposure is the number two leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking).

While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.

There are steps you can take as a homeowner to remediate radon yourself. While a radon reduction professional can make the biggest impact in your home, you can make efforts to improve radon levels on your own by sealing cracks, increasing ventilation, and testing for radon regularly.

You can vent radon out of your house sometimes by simply opening a window, but it won’t remove the source, and will likely rise above recommended levels quickly. A professional will be needed to assess your home, and determine the best strategy for radon removal. Active radon sump pumps and soil depressurization systems are often used to forcefully vent the radon from your home.
