Customers say: Quick response

"Professional, courteous, competitive pricing, and very responsive. The company did an excellent job installing an asbestos mitigation system in our basement. The were polite, kept the work area clean, and even more importantly, completed the task quickly and professionally. The best part is that they do not ask for payment until a post-abatement test is conducted and passes! I would highly recommend this company for your radon mitigation/abatement needs."

"They came back and checked on it when the levels weren't quite what they should be. I only have good things to say about them. They were very professional and knowledgeable. They seemed to have a lot of information about radon and how to have it removed from our house, and keep the levels down. The price was reasonable."

"Bob and his crew did a great job. From dealing with the office staff from the first call all the way until job completion I was impressed with the service. Not only that he had the best quoted price as well and while this may not seem like a big deal there were a few factors that made this impressive. First he was coming from further away than any other company, a lot further, over an hour away. Next he quoted the job site unseen and found that a portion of the work he quoted was already done when he arrived onsite so after the lab test came back showing everything within acceptable ranges he surprised me with a refund for that portion of the job that he didn't have to perform."

"This team was professional, as well as friendly and knowledgeableâ ¦gave us up front scenariosâ ¦ we didnâ t have to pay them before OR after the job was done (once the testing is done and we are SATISFIED, we are to pay the bill â ¦which was a little higher than the first company we contacted but the first company wanted payment up front and said nothing about OUR satisfaction). We were appreciative of the explanation of what was done and what WE needed to do to make sure the system was working properly. We got clear instructions on testing after installation. So far, so good! We are pleased."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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

Radon enters your home when warm air begins to rise and exits through the roof, creating a vacuum that pulls cooler air from under the foundation. Part of that air is radon, which is an invisible, odorless gas that develops naturally when radioactive particles are deep within the ground. Those particles usually come from decaying matter in soil and rocks.

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 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.

Ideally, no one will live in a house with elevated radon levels, as prolonged exposure increases the risk of serious health issues like lung cancer. However, homes with radon can be made safe through mitigation systems, such as active soil depressurization. Testing for radon regularly and addressing high levels helps ensure a safe living environment.
