Radon Testing Before & After Photos

New Home with High Radon Levels

Lisa, a recent homeowner, discovered high radon levels during a pre-purchase inspection. The team discovered she had high levels going up to 23 pCi/L. They contacted us for a free estimate and went on with the proposed initial design. A well-placed mitigation system resolved the issue, ensuring a safe and healthy home for her and her family.

This was an easy install as the homeowner was working in the construction industry before, so he did the most work in drafting how the radon mitigation system installed in his home. The team committed to his request and started from his daughter's bedroom closet running through the floor joists above the drop ceiling. From the crawlspace it would go through the master bedroom and straight shot into his garage. Regardless of the garage not having a ceiling, the crawlspace was very workable. The homeowner insisted on removing the debris and having the ceiling tiles adjusted from the master bedroom to expedite the job. His levels returned 7 pCi/L so there was sense of urgency. Homeowner was really happy with how it turned out!

Radon Gas Remediation for Big Home in Friend, Nebraska

15 years ago the homeowners used plastic to line the crawl space to prevent soil gas intrusion. Found out that the covering is in major disrepair and will need to be removed. Educated homeowners about this and they agreed. The team will encapsulate the 2 areas on the east side of the home along with the crawlspace. It will be a 4-point system as the home is quite large. Three points in the crawl spaces where existing system is run. Plus one point under or next to the stairs. The area under the stairs is tight and will need to be encapsulated. The radon fan was replaced with a better one and the clients requested to keep the old. Everything went well and homeowners are happy!

This client was a farmer, and his home was really difficult to find, even a GPS can't detect it. He built the house on 2006 and it has a poured foundation with an unfinished basement with a lot of stuff stored down there. The house had an elevated access point that is large opening into crawlspace that is 11'x12' and has large gravel over dirt. The crawlspace is about 3' tall inside, so won't be an issue. The owner is unsure of levels and hasn't tested in 10 years but said it was high then - we provided him with a charcoal test kit. The homeowner insisted to seal the floor cracks as well. The installation went quick and smooth!

Met virtually with this client. This was a cool story as our Senior Tech Andrew was doing an installation in town last week and this client literally stopped him to see if he could come take a look at the house, so Andrew took pictures and designed. Radon levels over 3 (three) tests ranged 28-38. That's high. Two sump pits, one with interior drain tile, slab on grade finished space that used to be a garage. We came up to 3 total extraction points. This was a fast install as Andrew already made a draft design for him which he really liked, and everything followed.
