"This is the second time I have used Scott and once again he was very professional, personable and informative. Scott looked at entire home inside and out. He was very thorough. Information that needed to be imparted regarding home defects was done succinctly and in a manner that was easy for me to understand. Scott advised me that everything we spoke about would be in his Home Inspection Report. I checked my hand written notes against the Home Inspection Report and not only did it have all the information given to me the day of inspection but much more information was included and appreciated. Scott explained the radon remediation system in the home. I will use the home inspection report to fix repairs not done by sellers. I have recommended Landmark Inspections to a friend and they were very satisfied with the service provided to them. When I called Scott to set up an appointment, he advised me he had some other appointments scheduled, however, because my time was limited to get the service done, Scott made an appointment for my convenience. I appreciate Scott fitting into my time limits and doing a thorough job when he arrived. Scott was early for the appointment, he was at the location prior to my arriving and I was early for scheduled appointment. I would definitely use Scott again."

"As a first time home buyer, I'd never dealt with a home inspection before. I contacted Peter and a couple other home inspectors on Friday, and left a voice mail with a few questions. Peter was the first to respond, answered all my questions, asked a few about the house, and gave me an estimate. I called back later that afternoon and scheduled with him for Monday because of his responsiveness, and because he would do the termite and radon himself, and not subcontract them. I was concerned that the snow on Monday would be a problem, but he said that it wouldn't be. Arrived on time, with a blanket for the floor by the doorway to wipe his feet. He explained how the inspection would work, and after a little bit of technical difficulties getting the credit card reader to work, we got started. He pointed out a number of things I never would have noticed, and explained why they could be a problem. Took lots of pictures, which were included with the report. <br /> He made recommendations for repairs as we went along, mostly for things that would be immediate safety concerns. Due to the snow, he was not able to inspect the roof, but when he returned to pick up the radon test on Wed, he performed the roof inspection and forwarded an addendum to the inspection report. I would go to Peter again for a home inspection. <br />"

"John provided us excellent communication both pre and post inspection. He arrived on time on the day that was convenient <br /> for us, and took the time to answer any and all of our questions.  He spent an extensive amount of time inspecting all areas of our home with what he called "TheTrifecta"; Inspection, Termite, & Radon. Within 24 hours of his inspection he provided us a detailed report of his findings. This report proved to be invaluable to us and our realtor  prior to our settlement with the seller. We were very happy with his professional and courteous service. We would definitely use JM Property again on any purchase of a home! <br />"

"The home we are purchasing is in another state, we were not able to be there for the inspection. Our inspector was Vincent, we were sent a VERY detailed report with pictures the next day. The inspection included Radon testing and wood destroying insect inspection since we'll be moving to PA. We are very pleased on the timeliness and the recommendations given in the report. We would definitely recommend this company!!!!"

FAQs for radon gas abatement projects in Kirkwood, DE

The only way to know whether your home or water supply contains radon is to schedule a professional test. A qualified radon inspector will collect samples, deliver lab-verified results, and explain the findings for $150 to $800. Once you know your exact levels, you and your radon mitigation pro can choose the right system and tackle the problem before it affects your family’s health.

Both roles tackle radon, but they focus on different steps. Inspectors test your home, interpret the results, and determine whether levels exceed EPA guidelines. Mitigation pros design and install the system that lowers those levels. Some companies do both, but the skills and equipment differ, so always verify that the person you hire is properly certified for the specific service you need.

Installing a mitigation unit fixes radon problems by reducing indoor gas levels to established safe standards. A system designed and installed by a mitigation expert, tailored to your home's specific layout and foundation, guarantees effective radon reduction. This expert installation ensures consistent performance over time while safeguarding your indoor air quality.

Open windows and doors do not reduce radon levels because they trigger a pressure imbalance that draws radon-laden air into your home. This practice fails to control radon concentration and can even worsen the issue. An active suction mitigation system provides a proven, safe, and effective solution to reliably reduce radon levels.

Radon mitigation systems generally last between 10 and 30 years, depending on system type and maintenance. Passive systems endure the longest because they have no moving parts, whereas active systems, which use a fan, require fan replacement every 5 to 10 years. System components, such as PVC pipes, seals, and fittings, can remain effective for decades when paired with periodic inspections and proper maintenance.

Radon mitigation systems consume between 300 and 3,000 kWh of electricity per year, depending on fan size and system design. On average, an active radon fan draws 100 to 300 watts continuously, which translates to roughly 876 kWh annually, and adds $30 to $300 to your energy bill each year. Choosing a high-efficiency fan and ensuring tight sealing around pipes helps minimize these ongoing costs.
