"The technicians were very quick and professional. The mitigation system install did not take long at all. They didn’t bother to seal off the sump pump cover so radon continued to come into the house. The techs brought up the fact that my sump pump cover would need seals off while they were here the first time but didn’t do anything for it. Now need another appointment for them to come look at it again and see what the next steps will be. Still cannot safely spend time within my finished basement and next appointment is well beyond a week away."

"Inspector was on time and explained everything to me. The report was returned a few days later and contained the current condition of the house I was buying, as well as preventive maintenance tips I should know. Coming from someone who doesn't know too much about home repair, I was thankful for the inspector's patience and willingness to explain all the details."

"Mike did an amazing job inspecting the home I am buying. He was incredibly thorough and took his time he wasn't rushed and didn't skip anything. An added bonus that I really appreciated was how well he explained different things that he noticed in and around the house. I never once felt like I was asking a stupid question when he had to go over something with me. He was very prompt with every question I emailed him and called to follow up on big things. The online report was sent promptly and it was really easy to look through. I would absolutely recommend him to my friends and family!"

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.

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.

Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas that poses serious health risks, infiltrating homes through foundation cracks and unnoticed spaces.

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.

Radon detection is crucial as prolonged exposure to radon gas, a leading cause of lung cancer, poses significant health risks in residential environments.
