Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of naturally occurring uranium in soil and rock. It is invisible, odorless and tasteless, and can only be detected by specialized tests. Radon enters homes through openings that are in contact with the ground, such as cracks in the foundation, small openings around pipes, and sump pits.

Radon, like other radioactive materials, undergoes radioactive decay that forms decay products. Radon and its decay products release radioactive energy that can damage lung tissue.  The more radon you are exposed to, and the longer the exposure, the greater the risk of eventually developing lung cancer. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer for non-smokers. It is extremely important to get your home tested on a regular basis.

At Volunteer Radon we specialize in all styles of radon mitigation. Whether it be a crawlspace, slab or new construction. Most radon systems can be installed in a day. After the system is installed, we perform a follow up radon test to make sure the system has lowered your radon levels. We follow all EPA protocols. If you have just found that you have a radon problem in a house you're selling, buying or you just want your home tested; it can be mitigated and brought to a level below the recommended EPA levels.  Please contact us today we would love to help you and inform you of what actions that need to be taken.
