"Jeff and his folks were a pleasure to work with. His communication regarding any delays or other issues is excellent. He is also great at answering followup questions that I have about how the system is running. It took our radon readings down to nearly zero from an alarmingly high value. We were hovering below 4 pCi for many years, but then our crawlspace was sealed and insulated and it soared in the living space. (The crawlspace itself was 20 pCi). Highly recommend."

"Found on Home Advisor, responded quickly after I reached out. Hired to install radon mitigation. Without asking....He took his shoes off once he saw we did. Cut could not have been any cleaner thru the laundry room tile and 4-6" of concrete subfloor, he didn't even break the tile! Took about 5-6 hrs to install. Post radon test came in at 0.3. Previously between 4-10. Worth every penny of the investment. You can't put a price on your health. Now we can breathe easy! Thank you Tyler Lucas!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Your radon fan needs to operate 24/7 to be effective. The only time the fan isn't operating is during its replacement. Radon levels in the home can increase within hours if the fan stops working or something obstructs the stack vent. Fortunately, radon systems require no downtime maintenance between fan changes.

You'll need to test your home for radon after installing the mitigation system, then again every two years. If radon remains elevated, contact a licensed radon professional, either the contractor who installed the system or a different one, and have them evaluate the system. They may need to make some changes to improve its effectiveness and performance.

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.

Use a radon test kit or hire professionals to conduct a detailed assessment of radon levels in your home.

If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.
