"The service was for Radon Mitigation in our home that had higher than acceptable Radon levels. The work was professionally done, and care was taken to protect carpeting etc during their work. The crew updated us home owners as they did their work and asked permissions for needed modifications to the house. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for quality workmanship, congenial communication and moderate pricing."

"I started this process by doing an in home test with one of those packs you mail in to the labs.  Results came back around the 7s I believe which suggests retesting.  I contacted another company that comes highly rated on this site and told them that I just wanted them to test, wasn't interested in having them do the mitigation as I wanted to have a test professionally done that wasn't going to be biased.  Well, they ended up just coming out and trying to sell me on a $3k mitigation along with plenty of other basement modifications that you could tell were part of their standard sales push from a sales guy that just travelled the area selling, but not doing any of the work.  Well, they ended up leaving me the same in home test I had already used, so I tested and it came back with the same results. <br /> Then after I finally had some time again I figured I'd call Dan at Athelon.  Dan assured me that the tests I used are fairly accurate and that he could come do the constant testing with his $4k machine, but it would cost $100 or something like that.  So I decided to just have him come out and give me a quote.   <br /> This is where you could really see the difference.  Dan, the guy who answered your original call and who you deal with throughout the process is the owner of the company.  That professionalism, experience and no nonsense attitude goes a long ways.  He came out, looked it over.  Told me exactly what they would do and the quote was less than half of what the original quote was for a much better solution. <br /> I signed immediately and he came out about 2 weeks later to take care of it. <br /> When they came out, he arrived just when he said he would at 8:00 and they were done with it all before 11:00.  Installed and running.  He left his fancy continual monitor in the house for the next 3 days and it showed us that the results of the radon mitigation system brought our levels down to .25.  Well below the 4 that is suggested. <br /> I have already suggested him to friends who are considering installing a system as it is nice to finally find a contractor in the area who is professional and affordable! <br />"

"<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 />"

"The technician performed a furnace checkup.  We'd purchased a house that had been a rental property so wanted to make sure that the furnace was in good working order.  The tech. checked for gas leaks, and tested to make sure the blower was working and that no parts were malfunctioning.  He also gave me an idea of how old the furnace was and whether or not it was showing wear and tear.  <br /> He was very thorough and polite.  I sort of hovered nearby because I wanted to see what he was checking and why, and he was patient in answering my questions. <br />"

"I had some friends over late Friday evening and we were going to hit the hot tub.  Much to my dismay, removing the cover revealed a half-inch layer of ice instead of steamy, swirly goodness.  I did some basic checking: I looked in the panel and saw the breaker was tripped, tried to reset and it tripped again immediately.  So I went upstairs and removed the service disconnect from the hot tub, tried to flip the breaker again, and it still tripped immediately.  So I knew it was either a short in the wiring due to the extreme cold or a bad breaker. <br /> I searched for an electrician and found ES&S, called Rob for emergency service and eventually got someone sent out.  It was late on Friday when this started, and it was later still by the time the electrician showed up.  The man on site was great, he was helpful, thorough, and friendly.  We got the breaker out of the panel and tested it, getting it to set successfully out of the panel.  When it stayed set after being wired back in, we knew it was the breaker going bad and moved to replace it.  He put in a regular 50 amp and we went up to make sure the tub started. <br /> Of course, we had some frozen hoses by then, and the guy was good enough to lend me an extension cord and hang around for a  while as we put hairdryers and heaters under the hot tub to thaw things out and get it running again.  While we waited, he addressed some other minor issues around the house, and though he did leave before we got it working, my wife and I went to bed with a working hot tub at about 3 AM. <br /> I talked to Rob a few days later and scheduled another trip to replace the standard breaker they had left with a GFI model. They had no GFI's when they came out originally so this was an additional visit.  I also asked to go over the charges. He discussed callout, time-and-a-half for late night, the cost of the breaker itself, and the trip to install the GFI, and gave me an overall total of $440. <br />  The electrician showed up on time to replace the breaker again, and five minutes later was on his way.  This was about a week after the original event, but I now had a working, properly safe, hot tub again.  Another week or so goes by and I finally get the bill for $520 - almost 20% over what I had been quoted.   <br /> <br /> UPDATE: After my original review, Rob contacted me and after some discussion, we were able to reach a resolution. I have amended my review to reflect the additional services provided and the resolution on the billing.  We agreed to meet in the middle and based on some other estimates I received, the price is more fair than I initially believed.  I have to give Rob credit for reaching out after my original review posted, and I am glad we were able to reach a mutually acceptable resolution. We both had some challenges with this repair but based on how things ended up, I will use ES&S again as an electrical service provider."

"Our house was built in 1941. We not only felt we needed to do waterproofing but needed a radon extracting system, sump pump, dehumidifier, wall paneling and new windows with window wells. The project worked like clock work with members of the American Waterworks team. Only have 3 windows and small section of paneling to finish. Paneling can't be finished until new water line is installed. All will be completed when windows arrive. In 1 yr. American Waterworks will come back to check all is working well. Extensive project that wasn't cheap. We felt we got our money's worth!"

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Oronoco, MN

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.
