Lawson Home Services Before & After Photos

A Wilmington, Delaware homeowner, concerned about the impact of indoor air quality on their health, reached out to Lawson Home Services to explore mitigation options. This proactive approach demonstrates their commitment to creating a healthy home environment.

Lawson Home Services prioritizes your well-being. Upon contact, we promptly dispatched our certified radon experts to assess the homeowner's property. This thorough inspection identified potential sources of indoor air quality concerns. Following the assessment, we provided a clear and detailed quotation outlining the recommended course of action.

Based on the assessment and our transparent communication, the homeowner readily accepted the proposal. Our certified radon installers then promptly implemented the mitigation system, ensuring optimal functionality.

Following installation, we conducted a post-radon test to verify the system's effectiveness. The results were a resounding success! The radon level dropped significantly, reaching a safe level of 1.1 pCi/L, well below the EPA's recommended action level. This measurable outcome provided the homeowner with lasting peace of mind.

A lot of the attics we go in require you to walk across joists or unsecure planks of wood to access air handlers, duct work, and attic fans. To the inexperienced individual it can be a dangerous area to walk and climb across.  Other attics have entrances and areas that aren’t securely blocked off from insulation.  This can cause insulation and dust to spill into unconditioned areas of your finished home.  

At Lawson’s we install secure, durable dams and decking. (1) We insulate the deck to make sure we are not sacrificing insulation and (2) we create a safe and secure way to enter the attic and if necessary service your air handler or other equipment located in that area.  As an addition we can even expand the decking for extra storage.

When radon levels soar, property values plummet due to health concerns and costly remediation requirements.

In Camden Wyoming, Delaware, a homeowner gearing up to sell their residence took the proactive step of installing a radon mitigation system to ensure safety and attract potential buyers.

Equipped with the radon mitigation system, new homeowners can relax, knowing they've addressed potential indoor air quality issues and reduced the hazards linked to radon exposure.

Back in 2020, Laswon Home Services were called to address foul odors coming from the crawlspace of this Camden Wyoming, DE home. Our Energy Auditor went into the crawl space and found that it had only a thin layer of black plastic, which had been laid directly onto the dirt floor of the crawlspace. This plastic was not sealed to the edges of the walls, and, in fact, you could actually see the dirt around the edges of the plastic. Ground moisture was evaporating and traveling around, and even through the thin black plastic, ending up raising the relative humidity of the crawlspace air and then condensing on and being absorbed into the wood structures supporting the first floor. The evidence was clear to see: mold was growing all over the wooden floor joists.
Lawson Home Services removed the musty damp insulation, pulled out the ineffective black plastic and installed the Dr. Energy Saver CleanSpace™ Crawlspace Encapsulation System and a Sedona™ SaniDry Crawlspace Dehumidifier. 

This homeowner made the wise decision to set up an annual maintenance schedule with Lawson Home Services. A technician now returns annually to perform a number of things, among them inspecting the CleanSpace liner and servicing the Sedona™ SaniDry dehumidifier, and makes sure everything continues to function as good as it did the day it was installed. This home passed the 2023 inspection with flying colors. We'll see them next year.

Radon, a colorless, odorless gas, is a proven carcinogen and a threat to home safety. The EPA and health experts strongly recommend radon mitigation as a crucial step in creating a healthy living environment. A Camden-Wyoming, Delaware homeowner, aware of the potential health risks, took proactive steps to safeguard their family.

Lawson Home Services understands the importance of healthy homes. Following contact, our team conducted a thorough assessment, addressing the homeowner's concerns and meticulously evaluating the property itself. Transparency is key – a professional radon test confirmed the presence of radon and the need for mitigation.

With complete confidence in our expertise and the proposed solution, the homeowner readily accepted the free and detailed quote outlining the recommended course of action. Our certified radon mitigation specialists then began the installation process, using meticulous methods and high-quality materials. The customized system, tailored to the specific needs of the home.

Once the installation was complete, a follow-up radon test verified the system's effectiveness. The results were a success! The radon levels dropped significantly, providing the homeowner with lasting peace of mind, knowing their family is safe in their healthy haven.
