Radon Testing Services in West Allis

Why Test Your Home for Radon?

Radon, a naturally occurring radioactive gas, can invisibly and silently infiltrate homes, becoming a significant health risk. Prolonged exposure to high radon levels is a leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Our radon testing services are designed to identify and assess radon levels in your home, be it through short-term or long-term testing methods. Using state-of-the-art radon test kits, our skilled professionals provide accurate assessments, ensuring your peace of mind.

Understanding Your Radon Testing Results

After conducting thorough testing, we help you understand the results. The EPA recommends action if radon levels exceed 4 pCi/L. Whether it’s your basement, crawl spaces, or main living areas, we’re equipped to detect and address areas where radon levels might be a concern.

Radon Mitigation Services

Professional Radon Mitigation

If your home tests positive for high radon levels, fear not. Our radon mitigation professionals are adept at designing and installing customized radon reduction systems. Our services include:

1. Slab Depressurization: An effective method particularly for homes with basement floors or slabs. By creating a pressure differential, radon gas is redirected away from your living spaces.
2. Drain Tile Depressurization: Utilizing your home’s existing drain tile system, this method helps in reducing radon levels effectively, especially in homes with extensive drain tile networks.
3. Crawl Space Systems: For homes with crawl spaces, we install specialized systems to prevent radon from entering your living areas.

How Does Radon Mitigation Work?

Our radon mitigation process involves creating a pathway for the radon gas to be safely vented out of your home. This usually involves the installation of PVC pipes and a vent fan. The vent pipe system runs from the lowest point of your home (often the basement or crawl space) to above the roofline, ensuring radon is safely dispersed into the air outside, significantly reducing the levels within your home.
