Brian is the epitome of professionalism. We moved into our home a few months ago that had a radon mitigation system installed in 2011, but it was not performing well, and our levels were between 4-9 pCi/L. Brian came out immediately and thoroughly assessed our system. He discovered several ways our system could be improved and in detail went through the process and sent a quote in less than 24 hours. He was extremely kind, personable, thoughtful and spent time explaining the process of radon movement and how the mitigation would best function in our current situation. We had existing cedar siding issues with a small amount of paint that was chipped off in the process. He wanted to paint the area for us and then offered a second coat when he returned to pick up our professional post-installment radon test. I have referred him to family and friends. Brian has far exceeded our expectations and gone above and beyond. His communication was phenomenal. He arrived a few minutes early to every appointment. Our radon level was near atmospheric levels (0.4 pCi/L) within 24 hours following the installment. We can’t thank him enough for his wonderful work and our peace of mind.

I can’t say enough great things about Brian and his team at MKE Radon Mitigation! They were absolutely excellent to work with from start to finish. One of the things I appreciated most was their communication. Brian was responsive, professional, and kept everyone informed throughout the process, which makes such a difference when you’re working through a real estate transaction. We had a very tight nine-day closing timeline, and they were able to get the radon mitigation system installed within that timeframe. They also worked with my sellers to allow payment at closing, which was incredibly helpful because they had already invested a significant amount of money into foundation work. I truly appreciate working with people who go above and beyond to create an excellent customer experience. Brian and his team made the process easy, accommodated our tight timeline, and helped us get the deal across the finish line. If you need radon mitigation, I highly recommend MKE Radon Mitigation. Great service, great communication, and a team that genuinely cares about their customers!

Brian was wonderful to work with! We wanted someone we could trust given the safety of our family. He was very helpful in answering all of our questions, is extremely knowledgeable and made the process easy. We were so impressed with the seamless work he completed, how quickly we were able to get scheduled and unmatched communication. There’s no hesitation to have Brian help with your Radon needs, we’d hire him over again and will recommend to our friends and family. Thank you, Brian!

We recently had Brian out to add a radon mitigation system to our 100 year old house. We thought we had drain tiles, however, it turns out we don't. Brian did a great job installing the system and providing clear communication on how the lack of drain tile adds extra time to the installation process. Brian was great at explaining the system and answering any questions we had. The installation looks great and is extremely clean. I would absolutely recommend Milwaukee Radon Mitigation!

Brian was great and super responsive! In about five days, he had our radon system repaired, re-tested, and ready to go including a weekend visit. Definitely will work with them again and share with our friends.

Working with Brian was such a pleasure. Communication was consistent. He was precise and fair with his estimate and price. He went above and beyond to ensure the unit was installed in a place that was aesthetically pleasing. He guarantees the unit will work and will show up if there’s issues down the road. 10/10!

Brian recently replaced the fan that went out in our radon mitigation unit. He was extremely responsive and professional. He got us a quote quickly, pointed out another minor issue that we could get fixed for a very reasonable price (but was not at all pushy about it--just an FYI we wouldn't have known about otherwise). He was very flexible in scheduling, as we personally don't have simple schedules. He arrived on time, performed the job quickly, and payment was super straightforward. I'd highly recommend Brian and his company for any of your radon needs.

Needed to write a review for Milwaukee Radon after our stellar experience working with Brian to install our home radon mitigation system. Brian is friendly, an excellent communicator, and both knowledgeable and experienced which was on full display as he walked us through the process and approach to crafting the right solution for our home. Additionally, he does the installs himself so you know that you will have an experienced installer doing the job for you which is great! But what I was most impressed by was Brian’s integrity and dedication to detail. Brian clearly takes pride in his work: not just in doing the job but doing the job well. And that’s something you definitely can’t find just anywhere. I would 100% recommend MKE Radon to anyone looking into a home radon mitigation install. Based on my experience, I’m sure you’ll be very pleased by the job that is done and in working with Brian!

Couldn't be happier with my radon mitigation system and installation. Brian is super friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. Was able to obtain a 95% reduction and reach outdoor radon levels. I wouldn't recommend anyone else.

Meet Brian Thompson, Your Local Radon Mitigator

Milwaukee Radon Mitigation is a family-owned business run out of West Allis, right on Milwaukee’s western border. When you call, you talk to Brian Thompson, the owner and the certified specialist who tests your home, designs your system and installs it himself. There is no crew; Brian does every test and install.

Brian is an NRPP-certified radon measurement and mitigation professional (NRPP is the AARST-affiliated National Radon Proficiency Program) with 10+ years of radon work. That training shapes every job: where the suction point goes, how the pipe is routed, how cracks and the sump are sealed, and how the result is verified.

Homeowners mention the same things in their reviews. Brian shows up on time, explains how the system works, leaves the basement cleaner than he found it, and does not push extras you don’t need. As one customer put it, “he didn’t try to upsell but rather was genuine and honest.”

That is the standard: honest advice, careful work and numbers you can check.

Milwaukee Radon Mitigation and Testing Services

Test first, then fix only if the numbers call for it. From the first test to the finished system and its follow-up test, Brian handles every job himself.

Radon Testing

Find out what you are breathing. We run at least a 48-hour test with a professional continuous radon monitor, with results right after and a written report that explains what the numbers mean.

Radon Mitigation

A properly sized sub-slab depressurization system, routed neatly and sealed carefully, built to bring your radon level below 4.0 pCi/L and keep it there.

Radon Resistant New Construction

Building in the Milwaukee area? Passive radon piping installed during construction is the easiest time to plan for radon, and a fan can be added later.

Radon Fan Replacement

Fan quiet, failing or dead? We replace radon fans on any system, check the piping and seals, and confirm the system is pulling suction again.

Radon System Inspection

Bought a house with a system already in it? We check the fan, manometer, venting and seals, then tell you honestly whether it is doing its job.

Vapor Intrusion Mitigation

For commercial and industrial properties where soil vapors threaten indoor air, we design and install sub-slab systems that keep vapors out of occupied space, working alongside your environmental consultant.

Radon Testing and Mitigation for Homes, Rentals and Businesses

Every radon project starts the same way: test first, then fix only if the numbers call for it. Radon comes up from the soil and can collect in any Milwaukee building, old or new, with a basement or a slab.

Homes and rentals

Most of our work is in single-family homes with basements. A short professional test tells you whether you are at or above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. If you are, a sub-slab system draws the gas from under the floor and vents it above the roofline. Landlords get the same process, with results documented for tenants.

Commercial buildings and daycares

We test and mitigate offices, retail space, multifamily buildings, condo associations, schools and child care centers, with a test plan sized to the building and after-hours visits when needed. Since March 2023, Wisconsin DCF requires licensed child care providers to test for radon and mitigate above the action level.

Test or Review Your Results

We place a professional continuous radon monitor for at least 48 hours, usually within a few days of your call, or review a recent test you already have, such as one from a home inspection.

Brian looks at your foundation, sump and layout, then explains where the suction point and pipe will go and what it will cost.

We core the slab, seal cracks and the sump, run the pipe, install the fan and add a pressure gauge (manometer) that shows the system is running. A standard install takes about 4 hours.

A follow-up test is included with every install. Brian runs it, or pays for a third-party lab test, no sooner than 24 hours and no later than 30 days after installation, to verify your level dropped below 4.0 pCi/L. Then he explains how to keep an eye on the system.

Real Before-and-After Radon Results

The goal of every system is simple: a lower number on the follow-up test. In Brian’s experience, typical post-mitigation results are below 2.0 pCi/L, with more than 90% of homes below 1.0 pCi/L. Here is what two recent customers reported in their Google reviews.

Andrew S.

9.5 → 0.30

pCi/L before → after (peaking near 10 before). A follow-up test confirmed the drop.

Steve L.

7.1 → 1.1

pCi/L before → after. Brian arrived on time, explained everything and left the work area spotless.

Radon Mitigation in Milwaukee: Common Questions

Still have questions?
We’re here to help with honest, certified guidance.

Who installs radon mitigation systems in Milwaukee?

Radon systems in Milwaukee should be installed by a certified radon mitigation professional. Milwaukee Radon Mitigation is owned by Brian Thompson, an NRPP-certified radon measurement and mitigation professional based in West Allis with 10+ years of radon work. He tests, designs and installs every system himself across Greater Milwaukee. You can check any contractor’s credentials (Brian’s are 109591-RMP and 109619-RMS) on the NRPP website before you hire.

Yes, radon is a real concern here. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services estimates that about 1 in 10 Wisconsin homes has high radon levels, and homes in Milwaukee County are no exception. Two houses on the same block can test very differently, so a test is the only way to know your level. See Wisconsin DHS radon information.

There is no single radon level for Milwaukee. Levels vary from house to house depending on soil, foundation and how the home is sealed, even between next-door neighbors. Wisconsin DHS publishes test results by area, which show trends, but your own test result is the only number that matters for your home.

No. The EPA recommends fixing a home when a test shows radon at or above 4.0 pCi/L, and suggests considering it between 2 and 4 pCi/L. Many Milwaukee homes test below the action level and need nothing. That is why we test first and only quote a system when the numbers call for one.

Some general contractors and plumbers offer radon work, but a radon system is its own specialty. Suction point placement, fan sizing, sealing and exhaust location all affect whether it works and meets standards. Wisconsin DHS recommends using a certified radon professional, such as an NRPP-certified mitigator like Brian Thompson.
