Radon Testing
The nature of Radon gas makes this radioactive carcinogen very difficult to detect. It is odorless, tasteless, and colorless which means it may exist in high concentration without any obvious signs. Considering just how dangerous this gas can be (it is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers), scheduling regular tests to detect radon levels in your home is very important. This gas is derived from the breakdown of uranium in natural rocks, soil, and water which means it is everywhere around us. It only becomes a problem when it accumulates at dangerous levels after seeping through vents, cracks, and crevices in the floor and walls of your home. Radon testing is the first step in ascertaining the extent of the problem and determining the best mitigation strategy to use.

Radon Mitigation
One abnormal level of radon has been reported in your building, you shouldn’t wait around for the dangerous radon symptoms to begin to appear due to long term exposure. Instead, you should call in radon mitigation contractors to help get the radon level under control. The foundation type of your home will determine the type of radon mitigation system that will be installed. Radon mitigation techniques may be implemented either to prevent Radon from getting into a home at all or to lower existing radon levels. In addition to the installation of passive or active suction systems, sealing, room pressurization, water treatment and the installation of heat recovery ventilators are some of the methods for mitigating radon levels in buildings.

“They arrived promptly and were very helpful. They took their time to explain what they were doing and what the test results meant. Luckily, there was no radon problem. But the way they handled the situation I wouldn’t be too alarmed even if there was.” Spade J.

Crawl Space Vapor BarrierAccording to estimates, over 27 million American homes have crawl spaces. These spaces are mostly used as storage but in most cases, are not kept as dry and protected as they ought to be. While it is easy to simply ignore your crawlspace, experts recommend having a vapor barrier installed as a way to maintain the air quality in your home and to also prevent moisture damage to your property. A vapor barrier is a type of plastic liner that is designed to cover the floor of your crawl space. The main purpose of installing a vapor barrier is to block moisture and vapor from getting into your crawl space and consequently into your home. Installing a vapor barrier is one of the ways to keep the level of radon and other potentially dangerous contaminants that can get into your home through your crawl space in check.
