"I specifically wanted an inspector that would be honest with me and not just gloss over costly problems with the homes we planned to buy. I've heard a lot of inspectors don't like to be "deal breakers" who get blacklisted from the realtors. I was nervous about the first home because we knew it needed work, but we are first time home buyers and weren't sure just what we were getting into. Thankfully, we chose the right inspector. Tom was thorough and noted every problem with the house. He caught a slight bulge in the basement wall that wouldn't have been permitted with our FHA loan. Although the owners could have fixed it first, there were several other major things we hadn't caught. We decided to pass on that house and went with another. We thought the second time around we had made a more informed choice (and it was a more expensive house). But again, Tom caught several things we had not seen. I also made several follow up calls about the details of his inspection, and he returned my calls each time, patiently answering my questions and explaining additional information. We appreciated Tom's honesty, professionalism, and thoroughness."

"We had a few workers here most of the time, the technicians were prompt and prepared, and friendly, which made things run smooth. Because of this, when an option was given, we were able to ask which way would save time and money, and trusted their judgement. We are very satisfied with the work that was completed and they left the place pretty clean considering all the soot they had to work in.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The cost for a radon mitigation system typically ranges from $800 to $1,500, with an average around $1,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the severity of the radon issue, and the type of system required. Your home's foundation type also significantly impacts the cost. For example, sealing and ventilating an unfinished basement might cost around $4,600, while encapsulating a crawl space without a foundation slab can range from $1,500 to $15,000.

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is present everywhere, complete avoidance is impossible. The average radon level in homes across the United States is 1.3 picocuries per liter (pCi/L). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends taking preventative measures if your home's radon levels are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.

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).

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.
