Radon is an odorless, invisible, radioactive gas naturally produced by uranium decay in rocks, water, and soil all over the country, including Delmarva. Like tobacco smoke and asbestos, radon gas is a cancer-causing substance, leading to 15,400 to 21,800 deaths yearly. And radon symptoms can worsen problems for people with asthma, respiratory problems, and compromised immune systems.
For these reasons, you should contact a mitigation specialist that understands this hazardous gas and can address your home's unique issues with a radon mitigation system and other solutions.

Our radon test & consultation:
The stack effect refers to the natural movement of air and radon gas in your home. It moves upwards, similar to air moving up a smoke stack. This phenomenon pulls air up from your basement, crawl space, or lower levels, drawing it to your living space and out through the attic and upper levels.
We depressurize the soil beneath your structure to prevent radon gas from moving through the house from the stack effect.
Next, a hole is drilled into the concrete foundation slab, basement floor, or surrounding earth to create a suction point (multiple suction points may be necessary). Then we connect a PVC pipe where radon gas travels. After, it either goes through the house or outside.
We vent radon gas through a pipe, running it through a fan in the attic or along the top of the structure. From there, radon is directed outside and away from your home.
To prevent radon gas from continuing to seep into your home, we seal all pathways, including cracks, gaps, and openings, with a urethane caulking compound.
After installation, your technicians will perform a complete inspection, checking the fan and other key system details. This comprehensive inspection ensures the radon mitigation system functions according to current industry standards, providing the protection your family is counting on.
After installing your mitigation system, our specialists perform a test using a continuous radon detector within 30 days, ensuring your system is working and maintaining radon gas at recommended levels.
