Why Mitigate Radon
Understand the Risks Radon Poses to Your Family
Radon gas is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that forms as a result of the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making it undetectable by human senses. Radon typically enters homes through gaps in the foundation, cracks in walls or floors, and other openings, where it can accumulate to potentially harmful levels. Once indoors, radon can become trapped, leading to elevated concentrations that pose a significant health risk. Prolonged exposure to high levels of radon is associated with an increased risk of lung cancer, particularly among non-smokers. Radon is considered a silent threat because it cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted, making regular testing essential to ensure the safety of indoor environments.
Invisible Threat
Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that seeps into homes through the ground, posing serious health risks when accumulated at high levels.
Protect Your Family
Testing for radon is crucial to safeguarding your family’s health, as even low levels of radon can have long-term consequences.
Health Risk
Prolonged exposure to elevated radon levels increases the risk of lung cancer, making it the second leading cause after smoking.
Safety First
We prioritize safety throughout the mitigation process, employing industry-best practices to ensure effective radon reduction without compromising your home’s integrity.
