Q: What is radon?
A: Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless, colorless, and tasteless radioactive gas that comes from the decay of uranium in soil and rock. It can enter your home through cracks in the foundation, walls, and floors. Prolonged exposure to high levels of radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer.
Q: How do I know if I have a radon problem?
A: The only way to know if your home has elevated levels of radon is to test for it. We recommend professional testing, especially if you are buying or selling a home, or if you have never had your home tested.
Q: What is radon mitigation?
A: Radon mitigation is the process of reducing the concentration of radon gas in the indoor air of a building. The most common method is a sub-slab depressurization system, which draws radon from beneath the foundation and vents it safely to the outside.
Q: How long does a radon mitigation system installation take?
A: Most residential radon mitigation system installations can be completed in a single day.

Q: How do I know if I have a mold problem?
A: Signs of a mold problem can include a musty odor, visible mold growth, or health symptoms such as allergies, coughing, or sneezing. However, some mold may not be visible. Professional mold testing can determine the type and concentration of mold spores in your home.
Q: What does a mold test involve?
A: Our mold testing services include a visual inspection and air and/or surface samples to determine the presence and type of mold. The samples are then sent to a certified lab for analysis. We provide you with a detailed report of our findings and recommendations.
Q: What if the mold test comes back positive?
A: If the mold test indicates a problem, we can provide recommendations for remediation. We do not perform mold remediation ourselves, to avoid any conflict of interest and to ensure the most accurate testing.

Q: What are the signs of a failing basement wal
A: Common signs include horizontal or vertical cracks, bowing or leaning walls, water leaks, and walls pushing inward. If you notice any of these issues, it is important to have a professional assessment to prevent further damage.
Q: What is the E-Z Breathe Ventilation System?
A: The E-Z Breathe system is a whole-house ventilation unit that helps to eliminate excess moisture, odors, and indoor air pollutants. It works by creating negative pressure, expelling stale air and drawing in fresh, drier air, which helps to improve indoor air quality and prevent problems like mold growth.
Q: Can you fix my leaky basement?
A: We offer solutions for wet basements, including poured wall crack injections and sump pump installations, to help prevent water from entering your home.
