"The job itself was done well and promptly; however, when I asked for an estimate before the work was done, I was told that every job is different, and it would depend on how much chemical application was necessary, how long the crew needed to be there, etc.  In other words, they preferred not to give an estimate.  If we would have known their cost ($850) in advance, we might well have researched other options.  Since we had no idea how radical the repair work would be, we also had no idea our payment to SERVPRO was only half the cost of the job.  The contractor (recommended by SERVPRO) had a problem with the "swirly" pattern, and I could not get them to come back and fix the uneven finish around a wall socket whose cover now does not attach seamlessly to the wall.
Before I would use them again, I would research other options.  (I may still ultimately use SERVPRO, but I would be more careful about knowing the cost going into the job.)"

"A two-man team worked very efficiently to remove each vent cover and vacuum inside the vent openings throughout the townhouse. One man removed the vent covers while the other man vacuumed inside the vent openings. No problems with how they worked but I think there are other companies who perform a more thorough cleaning of ductwork using other methods. This company did a superficial cleaning and worked very quickly. In and out within an hour.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. 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 action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

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

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.

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

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.
