"I had a Wind Mitigation Inspection performed on my roof. My inspector was Darius Woods. He was punctual, polite, respectful of me and my property, he maintained great communication from the moment the appointment was set all the way up to an hour before the appointment. I can’t yet speak on communication after inspection, only because he literally just left my house 10 mins ago, but he did give me ample opportunities to ask questions and made sure I was happy with the inspection before he left. He also told me if I did have any questions afterwards, that I could contact him, and he provided his cell number along with his business card. He held true to his promise of sending the report before he left my property. If I ever have to have another house or roof inspection, I will definitely choose Webb Property Inspections and hope that they send Darius again!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.

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