"<p>it was superb! they easiest, hassle free Radon test in town, with extremely proficient people -- very knowledgeable and very people-friendly! they took their time to explain things on the phone to me before I committed. the test came back within 10 days or so -- via email. which is very convenient. it was very clear as it is, but I like talking through it and get advice. they were instantly available to discuss. they gave me future tips to keep on top of all things Radon related. </p> <p>I have to say that all this comes to be after 3 months of many back and forths with 3 other companies -- none of the other companies could be bothered to schedule a time, and those who did, never showed up.. many times over. I don't know why I was so patient with them and I wish had discovered Environmental Testing & Research Laboratories much sooner.</p> <p>Really highly recommend them!</p> <br />"

"We contacted 4 companies to take care of our 2 car garage roof.   Randy's bid wasn't the lowest, but it was competitive, and they could start immediately.  The bid included new shingles, soffit repair, installation of roof venting, and some minor siding repair. <br /> <br /> Work started on Monday, completed on Wednesday (the soffit and siding work alone took 2 days).  The two men who did the work (Larry & Mark) were professional, put in 8 hours of steady work each day, didn't loaf around, and cleaned up after themselves. <br /> <br /> The quality of work is very good, and the company is giving us a 10 year warranty on the work.  I'm glad we didn't take the cheapest bid (only by $300).  My wife and I are pleased with the results, and will contact them for future projects."

"Work went fine. 9 months later when I could actually get down in crawl space I found that there were several areas where plastic was not taken to outside walls as was contracted. They cleaned up 25 years of other contractors leaving their trash behind and then left theirs' behind. The spray insulation cans were laying all over. Contract said mold was supposed to be re checked in a year but nobody has come back. I have called and talked to the owner 3 times and he told me he would be by. The fourth time my call was never returned. Always get several bids and get multiple referrals. <br /> <br />"

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Olive-branch, IL

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.
