Before & After Photos

The client was very approachable and suggested a lot. He has a good idea of where the system will go so the team made it happen for him. The crawlspace was a challenge since it's inaccessible. It has an old window for an access point. The team installed a single point system and made it work regardless of the challenge in crawlspace. Client was really happy!

The clients were a nice, retired couple. They invested in this ranch house as their retirement home with a fully finished basement near the lake. Before moving in, they had to test for radon as they have been seeing the need everywhere, especially with elderly... It turned out the levels were high! They called in for Iowa Radon Defense as they don't want to ruin this beautiful summer home and the memories they want to make. The radon mitigation system was a sump pit with no pump. The team utilized the pit for extraction and perforated holes in the side. They had an L-shaped crawlspace, so it was a bit of a challenge. Everything was well done, and they liked it.

Regardless of this client being in a nursing home, she still wanted her home protected from the harmful effects of radon. She had her home tested and returned with high levels so for their to protect her health and the future relatives who will stay in her home, she called Iowa Radon Defense and booked a radon mitigation install. She was happy with her move as despite being elderly, she didn't show any limitation in decision making regardless of age.

Progressive Cancer Client Recommended Radon Mitigation to Family

The client is the daughter of the homeowners we serviced across the street, they recommended us to her and she really liked how the radon mitigation system was installed in her parents place. They were nice and very flexible about everything -- as long as the system does the job right and no future issues. The team checked the home and saw that the sump is not perforated. Did a radon test and returned with levels 14-15, so a second point is needed either under the stairs but they preferred to have it at the right of the door leading into the additional room. The client's father was diagnosed with progressive cancer so she takes very seriously to full detail.  They also added in an ERV installation to circulate healthier airflow within the other center room. All services were done neatly and met expectations of client. They did mention they will recommend us to all their friends. 

This project will be a challenging one as a set of expectation. There is a super small portion of the basement that will need an extraction point and small slab that will need a horizontal extraction point that is towards under the stairs. The homeowner will start working from home so she needs all the protection she should get. The challenge was going to be the extraction point from outside the house. The technician will most likely be going to need to run a line through the crawl space hole and out through the far side of that. The good thing is that it is currently covered with clean space but is a tighter fit and uncomfortable. The homeowner didn't want much damage as it would cost her extra to repair and it no longer fits her budget. She was looking to see what the radon system could do before going down and encapsulation avenue.
