"They were prompt, professional, and thorough in their review of the problem (results of a radon test revealing higher than acceptable levels of radon), coming up with a proposal for a radon mitigation solution, providing an estimate, accomplishing the work (blocking off possible radon entrances in the basement floor and installing a venting system), providing a visible means to monitor performance of the mitigation system once installed, explaining what they were doing, and answering all questions I came up with. <br />"

"My wife and I have been putting this off for 2 years, mainly because we have run into a number of contractors who we didn't get good feelings from. Wolfgang was the complete opposite, and after a free home site estimate, we scheduled installation within 3 weeks (he was able to work us in sooner, but our schedules wouldn't cooperate). Wolfgang and his son showed up around 9:00 AM on the scheduled day and immediately went to work. It was a very cold day and they were great sports (especially having to do a large part of the installation outside). I was very comfortable leaving them alone in our house to complete the work, and was excited to see how well the suction PVC pipes were hidden from view above a drop ceiling in the mudroom. They explained that the suction fan was wired in an existing circuit and would use as much energy as a typically lightbulb (75 watts). This unit was placed along a wall of our bedroom and it is absolutely silent (I can't even hear it when I'm next to it outside). They did a great job running the pipes along a line of the home and unless you are looking for it, it is likely to never be noticed. The work was completed in 1 day (approx. 7 hours) and we had our new Radon reading in a week (down from 6.2 pCi/l to 0.7 pCi/l, under the limit of 4). Central VA Radon is certified, licensed and insured, and I would not hesitate to use them again (hopefully no need!) or to recommend them to friends."

"<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 />"

"This was after Gaston, way back in what? '04? so my information is very old - but they were excellent. This happened 6 months after I'd moved to Richmond and bought my house. As I remember, I had one small problem crop up after the initial installation, and they came out and fixed it a.s.a.p.  The cellar has been dry ever since, sump pump working, etc. Not a hitch. I had a lot of other expenses (new furnace, floor, washer, dryer, etc.) so I spent a lot more than the $7000 - it hurt, but it was worth it."

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Palmyra, 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.
