If you have a need, we can help.
"I called to request a bid on Monday for routine lawn care with a probability of landscaping later in the year. An appointment for an evaluator was made for the next day. I was impressed with the evaluator and had them in first place based on his presentation. I asked for the bid to be made by Friday (3 days later) and was assured that Fridays were his day of writing and submitting bids. No bid arrived. When I called on Saturday, I got voicemail. Support staff called back on Monday and I was told that a bid would arrive on Friday (11 days after the first call). I stressed that I was eager to make a decision, and that 10 days seemed like a long wait when most providers had bids in 1-3 days after the visit. The support staff said that the following Friday would be the soonest possible. I called Friday morning to verify that a bid was coming that day and was assured that it was. No bid was received by 4 pm, so I called again and got voicemail. I have not heard back from them. I don't know if it is a case of cruelty or incompetence, but it is surely unprofessional to string me along for 12 days when others took 1-3 days. If they decided not to bid, they could have told me rather than "ghosting" me and wasting my time with false promises."

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.
