peace of mind.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas released as uranium in soil, rock, and water breaks down. It has no color, smell, or taste. It can enter a building through foundation cracks, gaps around pipes, and other openings. Testing is how you find out your home’s radon level.

After a new mitigation system is installed, arrange a post-installation test within 30 days, but no sooner than 24 hours after the system is operating. EPA recommends retesting at least every two years to confirm levels remain low. Follow the testing instructions for your property and contact our office to coordinate your next test.

A common approach uses a vent pipe and a specialized fan to draw soil gas from beneath the foundation and discharge it outdoors. This helps reduce radon entering the building. The design depends on the foundation, crawlspace, layout, and conditions at your property.

Breathing radon over time increases the risk of lung cancer. Radon can build up in new or older homes, with or without a basement. Because you cannot detect it by sight or smell, testing is important. Learn more about radon and health through the EPA’s radon resources.

Check the system’s warning device, often a U-shaped manometer mounted on the vent pipe. Unequal fluid levels indicate a pressure difference; compare the reading with the normal reading documented for your system. Equal levels, a changed reading, or an alarm are reasons to contact our office. The gauge does not measure radon and cannot confirm the radon level is low—only a radon test can do that.

No. We do not require a radon test before scheduling an estimate. If you already have test results, share them with our office along with the property address and any timing requirements.

Yes. We visit the property in person to review its conditions and prepare a mitigation proposal suited to the building. Once you accept the proposal, our office can discuss installation scheduling and availability.

pCi/L means picocuries per liter of air. It is a measure of radioactive activity in a volume of air and is used to describe radon concentration. Your radon test report uses this unit to show the measured level.

Encapsulation covers exposed crawlspace soil with a durable vapor barrier, with seams and openings sealed as appropriate to the design. It can help manage ground moisture and can be part of a radon mitigation approach. Our team reviews your crawlspace and explains the barrier, sealing, and any mitigation work suited to the property. Encapsulation is not a substitute for correcting drainage problems or active water entry.

Send the report when you contact us. Include the property address, the test location, and any real-estate deadline so our office can discuss the appropriate next step.

The scope depends on your foundation, home layout, system routing, and site conditions. Contact our office for a property-specific estimate and a clear description of the proposed work.

Yes. Our radon repair services include sump pit sealing, fan replacement, and repairs to existing mitigation systems. Tell us what you have noticed and share available photos or recent test results.

We work with homeowners, homebuyers and sellers, realtors, builders, commercial property owners, and property professionals throughout Central Ohio. Share your property location, service needs, and timing with our office.
