"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I first worked with Cristian Papa of Webb Inspection Services during a full home inspection last year and was so impressed with his professionalism and attention to detail that I hired him again to evaluate recent roofing work at my property. Cristian conducted a thorough inspection, carefully documented his findings with photographs, and provided a detailed, well-organized report that was easy to understand. His attention to detail and ability to identify areas requiring further review gave me valuable information to make informed decisions regarding my property. Throughout both inspections, Cristian was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and willing to answer questions. It is clear that he takes pride in his work and provides honest, independent evaluations. I highly recommend Cristian Papa and Webb Inspection Services to anyone looking for a thorough and trustworthy home inspector."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

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