"Had a great experience with Chris Kuper at Basement Detective! My basement flooded from non-stop storms and I needed a sump pump installed along with complete renovation of my basement. They were very competitive in pricing and outstanding in results. Chris even helped coordinate with the contractor doing my basement renovation after the sump was installed to make sure none of the drainage was disturbed by the new work being done. I have since weathered at least 3 large storms and can hear the sump working as needed. Very happy with the results!"

"I lived in Arizona where an inspection includes a drippy faucet or burned our light bulb so to be fair, I am not sure what requirements Virginia has. We were not here but sent our son-in-law to participate. Since we have been in, our pipes bang when the water is turned on. Our electric patio screen was ripped up the side. The plug unit behind the tv that was left is literally falling out of the wall and taking wall with it. One of the blinds that we will be changing anyway, was not screwed in and I tried to open it and the entire thing fell on me. I have a box of electrical wires in the closet in a box. The box cover was broken, lying on the floor and all the 30+ wires were hanging out to the floor. The only other thing I can recall and probably too cosmetic was each bath room had towel bats, none match and also falling out of the wall. They had obviously repainted and their was paint on everything, light fixtures, cabinets etc. These things would have been noted in a AZ inspection but as I said, maybe not required in VA."

"David Rushton was extremely helpful and responsive in providing information about his services, and in scheduling the inspection. He arrived on time, and provided an extremely thorough and complete inspection, lasting several hours. He is very knowledgeable, and his inspection report was extensive and contained many photographs documenting his findings. It is possible to spend less money on an inspection, but if you want a thorough and revealing inspection, you will not be disappointed. I was also impressed by his background, training and education, and his participation at the state level with the recent move to home inspection licensing. I highly recommend Mr. Rushton for any home inspection project."

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Bentonville, VA

Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. The gas seeps through cracks in foundations and collects in basements and other low areas. Once you breathe it in, radioactive particles lodge in lung tissue and do long-term damage. Because you can’t see or smell radon, the EPA recommends testing your home every two years—and after major renovations—to keep your family safe.

Yes—every home should be tested. The EPA advises doing it at least every two years and any time you remodel, buy, or sell. On average, one in 15 houses nationwide sits above the recommended limit, and the only way to know where yours stands is a formal test. The equipment simply measures gas levels and won’t change your indoor environment, so the process is completely harmless.

Certified radon professionals—often home inspectors or dedicated radon mitigation contractors—handle testing. These radon testing professionals follow EPA protocols and use calibrated instruments to check levels throughout your house. Hiring a certified radon specialist means results you can trust for real estate deals, insurance requirements, and, most importantly, your family’s health.

Inspectors specialize in measuring radon gas levels, while licensed mitigation contractors design and install the systems that remove it. If your test comes back high, your inspector can point you to a qualified mitigation pro who will size and install the right fan, piping, or other equipment to bring levels down.

No—standard home air purifiers don’t touch radon. They’re built to trap dust and pollen, not radioactive gas. If testing shows high levels, you’ll need a dedicated mitigation system that vents the gas from beneath your home to the outdoors. Relying on a room purifier alone won’t keep your indoor air safe.

Opening a few windows in your home might dilute radon for a short time, but the gas seeps back in as soon as they’re closed. For a lasting fix, you’ll need a professional mitigation system—often a sub-slab depressurization fan—that pulls radon from beneath the foundation and safely vents it outside.
