Dealing with radon problems in your home or commercial property isn’t easy. We list here 5 rules on how you could effectively deal with the problem:

Every home is unique

The first rule is to know that every property is unique. A solution that might work for one property might not work for you and vice versa, even if the properties happen to be close to each other. Keep that piece of advice in mind when you start looking for a home radon mitigation system, which directly ties into the second rule…

Don’t skip the inspection

Asking your neighbor for the mitigation system they use and getting that for your own home isn’t ideal. Don’t skip the inspection. You could have completely different radon levels than your neighbors’. You’ll need a system that is customized and tailor-made for your property. Otherwise, there’s a big chance that the system you’ll go with will fail to keep those radon levels well under control. That or you’ll end up spending a ton of money on a system you might not even need at all.

Find a licensed contractor

Don’t try to take on the task of installing a mitigation system all by yourself. While there is plenty of DIY help online, if you have no experience in installing one or don’t have the proper tools and safety gear, it’s a much more sensible move to simply hire a licensed, accredited and insured contractor for the job.

Benefits of finding a contractor

Finding a licensed professional to take charge of installing your home radon mitigation system solves a number of problems. This way, you won’t have to worry about making a mistake. Pros are much more efficient too, ensuring that the system is up and running a lot sooner. If you want reliable and speedy results, hire a pro to help you.
