"They did a great job.  It took two tries but they were able to remove enough soil to pass DEQ's test.  They filled the hole and left the property clean.  They came in within their estimate. <br />"

"Oregon Restoration devised a plan to remediate the light mold in our attic.  Do your homework.  Mold is caused by something and you need to fix the cause not just remediate the problem.  Ryan referred me to Balanced Energy Solutions who corrected the inadequate air flow and improper venting which created the mold growing environment.  i.e. poor soffit ventilation, inadequate roof ventilation, and improperly vented bathroom fans.  Once this was done Ryan returned and created a negative air flow environment in he attic with a HEPA exhaust to the outside while working.  This scrubbed the air of the chemicals and any mold that was released.  His work was quick, neat, and efficient.  I inspected the attic later in the day and it looked great.  He guarantees a passing mold inspection post work and gives 3 subsequent annual inspections. <br /> They do not do mold inspection but remediation.  I would advise not to use one company for both as there is a conflict of interest as they would be creating their own work.  Just get a bid from someone that does this and you will see.  I experienced this while getting my bids and it is worth getting several bids from mold inspectors, and mold removal companies but definitely not someone who does both.  An inspector can test the mold for a fee to tell you what type it is but it doesn't really matter.  It's mold and you have a problem that needs correction.  Save your money and fix the problem and the mold.  I'm so pleased I contacted them and followed their advice to get an independent inspection, have the air flow corrected, and finally remediate the mold.  Also if you are able to follow the inspectors into every nook and cranny of the area you need work done.  The more knowledge you have the better of a job you will get done. <br />"

"The whole process from testing, system design and installation went better than I ever expected. Everyone at this company was professional, competent and friendly. They answered all my questions, the installation went great and they were able to reduce my radon levels to barely detectable levels. I would recommend this company to anyone needing radon mitigation."

"This is my second time using Perfection Inspection to review a property for me.  Feel free to look back in earlier 2015 reviews to see my comments about a property NOT purchased on Sequoia in Corvallis.  Jim's report saved me from a true money pit there. <br /> Today Jim came to look over a house I have been living in for 6 months.  There are LOTS of small problems.  The builder, "HH", is a major builder here in the Northwest.  Unbeknownst to me until too late, these homes are thrown up very fast and without regard for owner happiness.  As a disabled senior I sank all I had into a home to leave for my son.  I have lost a lot of sleep over this purchase and have sincerely wondered about our physical safety living here. <br /> Jim, as usual, is a fountain of knowledge, delivered in a professional and pleasant demeanor.  Together we went over the specifics of what I have found living here, and then Jim went over the whole house, from roof to crawl space, as he normally does. As he worked, we discuss from time to time --  specifics of what I showed him, things he found, how these matters relate to code, whether the item(s) need to be addressed immediately or can wait a bit, dealing with the builder, etc. <br /> I feel fortified with useful knowledge and supported in the tasks ahead, particularly dealing with the builder.  Jim is worth every penny and I should have used him before purchasing this home.  However, the home is still under warranty and I am so glad I called Jim for help, again.  I don't know anyone else who can even come close to providing the level of service, the technical expertise, and the use of technology to back up their findings the way Jim does. <br /> Perfection Inspection receives my whole-hearted recommendation and thanks for service, results, and support.  You might pay $100 less with someone else, but you will be missing out.  Of that I am quite certain. <br /> <br />"

"I hired Environmental Works on the recommendation of a co-worker. Not only was it the least expensive of the three bids I received but it was also the only company that offered a lifetime guarantee on its work. The entire installation of a radon mitigation system in my home took less than six hours. The company guarantees that its radon mitigation system can keep radon levels below 2.7 pCi/L. A three-month radon monitoring test, completed ten months after the installation of my mitigation system, indicated radon levels at 1.4 pCi/L. I am very pleased with the work that was performed at my home."

FAQs for radon gas testing projects in Salem, OR

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.
