"Dwight was professional and friendly from the moment he arrived to do a home inspection for us. What stood out and was complimented by our realtor as well was the fact he brought in folding chairs for us to sit in because the house was empty. Even our realtor said she had never had an inspector do that and we were blown away by the thoughtfulness and customer service that showed. Dwight was extremely thorough and made sure to communicate prior to starting, during, and after the inspection. He went beyond explaining recommendations and elaborated in a way I could understand. He was patient while answering questions and overall an absolute pleasure to work with. Our report was emailed in just a couple hours following the inspection. I highly recommend A House on a Rock and thank Dwight for the wonderful experience he provided. "

This is a pile of bat poop in the attic. Bat poop is toxic, and this is going to be an expensive clean-up job.
Looks like the homeowner cut all the trusses in the attic to make room for storage. Unfortunately, those were all structurally important components that they cut.
Typical "flip" plumbing, There is no trap which allows sewer gasses into the home. Plus, even if there was a trap, there was no vent, so it may have siphoned the water out of the trap.
This is an improvised "skylight" that was leaking into the attic

"Used US Inspect for a property that I purchased June 2023. The inspector missed several items that have since caused me several thousand dollars to repair. The nature of the errors were so egregious, the Vice President visited my home after the first issue. I was then offered more than 50% of what I paid as a refund since I am a "valued customer". Currently pursuing litigation against US Inspect. I would not recommend this company to anyone."

FAQs for radon gas abatement projects in Richmond, VA

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.
