Radon Doesn’t Have to Kill the Deal

We receive a lot of calls from home sellers and real estate agents with questions about radon. Questions like:

  • We just got our radon test back. What does it mean?
  • We’re thinking of listing our house. Should we have a radon test first?
  • We know we have elevated radon levels in our home. Does that mean we can’t sell it?

The truth is elevated radon levels in your home are a cause for concern. After all, exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking. However, radon Issues don’t have to kill a real estate deal. There are cost-effective steps you can take to ensure the home you’re selling is compliant and safe for years to come. Give Guardian a call, we can help!

I needed to do something regarding levels of radon affecting my indoor air quality (2nd leading cause of lung cancer) so I went online and got some quotes. Mary Anne at Guardian answered my call and thoroughly explained the process and through pulling up my address in the MLS Database, already knew the details of my house without even asking all the redundant questions about my property! I was impressed and had a good first impression. Within a couple of days, Mike came out to my house for a free consultation and explained to me exactly where he would be installing the fan housing, PVC pipes, and drilling the holes to connect and vent out the air underneath our cement foundation. My sump pump would also be properly sealed. He also explained to me the correct way to do it in regards to industry and IL standards and I was very impressed with his attention-to-detail and straight-forward, “no BS” approach. After a few back and forth emails with additional questions, I was further impressed with the way they addressed my initial concerns (3 or 4 inch wide piping?) and along with them honoring the initial fair + upfront quote given to me during my first phone call, I decided to hire them and booked the installation for the soonest available day. The next week, the owner Chris, along with Mike came out as a team of two to complete the actual job. (One of them is also an electrician.) The whole process went smoothly as Mike was busy with the basement work and Chris was busy with the work on the exterior of my house. A good way to divide things up! The work they did was quite professional and their workmanship exceeded my expectations! (I even noticed Chris using an I-beam level to perfectly balance the quality radon fan they installed on the exterior of the siding and everything was weatherproofed sufficiently with a clear sealer!) The whole job took roughly 5 hours and they cleaned up afterwards. Mike explained to me what to pay attention to down the line, even weatherproofed an old, exterior no-use hole and removed an old aluminum foil tubing connected to that hole. My U-Tube Manometer measured a good amount of suction at 1.75 inch WC. Fast forward 72 hours later and my EPA-approved continuous monitoring device now shows a negligible 0.6 pCi/L radon reading as of Sunday! (well below the EPA’s 4.0 pCi/L action level and the WHO’s 2.7 pCi/L action level) So as I’m writing this….Mission Accomplished is my conclusion. I would definitely recommend Guardian Radon Mitigation to anyone looking for a tight-knit family of professionals who truly get the job done right the first time.
