No home is entirely safe from radon. Although radon is a natural gas that exists just about everywhere, when it is released from rock and soil into your home, it can build up indoors and cause toxic levels.
Radon is the leading environmental cause of cancer and causes more deaths than home fires or carbon monoxide. While you can’t see or smell radon, it can be present in your home. All types of buildings are at risk for high radon levels.

One of the simplest ways to lower radon levels in a home is with a radon mitigation system. We offer systems for basements, crawl spaces, and slab homes.
Crawl space encapsulation involves lining your home’s crawl space with a vapor barrier. This vapor barrier along with a sub-membrane depressurization system prevents moisture and radon gas from entering your crawl space and contaminating indoor air.
If the crawl space at your residence is a dirt floor, radon can easily get in. In such cases, you don’t necessarily need a ventilation system to reduce radon. Instead, you can simply line the walls and floor of the crawl space with a vapor barrier.
Crawl space encapsulation can help lower radon levels and even prevent mold and moisture damage to your home and its foundation.
Once the job is complete, we retest your home’s radon levels to determine if the job was successful and how much the radon levels were reduced.
Every home is different, but a radon mitigation system that has been successfully installed by experienced professionals can reduce your radon levels below EPA action levels.
Yes, radon mitigation systems are effective at reducing radon levels up to 99 percent, and at approximately the same cost as other common home repairs.
The symptoms of radon exposure include long-term symptoms like a nagging cough, shortness of breath, or ongoing chest pains. These symptoms could ultimately manifest in lung cancer down the road.
If you believe your home has high radon levels, you may be wondering if you can install a radon mitigation system or vapor barrier and encapsulate the crawl space yourself.
