Before & After Photos

The client initially told us after she got her free estimate that she was terribly busy and didn't have time for a long sales pitch before the appointment. The team spent a couple hours with her, and she was very deep down. There are now people living in the basement and she was concerned with air quality and radon. She teaches college science and works in water treatment. She also cares for two large huskies. She had a crowded basement with an unfinished storage room. There are storage shelves next to sump pit with exterior drain tiles. As per the plan, one will be moved, the other has been built in but they will remove items from the shelf. The team also moved the big shed from her yard, and everything fell into place.

This was an interesting layout on the home and ultimately came to a conclusion with the homeowner based on layout of the home that the guest bedroom would be the best extraction point. It would be in the far corner of the room downstairs and come out on the back side of the house. This was a starter home for both Joe and his wife so they weren't all that concerned about aesthetics as they were thinking about selling their home within the year because there was a job opportunity for the wife in Texas. Needless to say, they also wanted their home appraised if that time comes.

The team has reviewed home initially and there is currently a passive system in place. Needing to do a 2-point system based on right on levels, second shock complaint would probably be okay in your drain tile. The homeowners have been suffering from allergies and having multiple headaches lately so also wanted to do the Breathe EZ filter too. The husband works in construction so he'll most likely be home during the installation process but is it really cool guy. He understands everything about radon, it's just this time they had the finances to cover the cost.

Radon Testing Available in Boone, Iowa

The O'Brien family recently discovered elevated radon levels in their basement. With little ones they have around, they didn't hesitate to install a radon mitigation system with us. This is a 1-point system that will be out of the corner of the home. There's also a Breathe EZ that will be added to HVAC system. There are multiple chambers on this home but homeowner and told me that he was possibly selling within the next couple years so the need of the system as well. There are also too small inaccessible crawl spaces so there is no warranty. Radon levels were a six to seven and homeowner said that he wanted to start with a single point before addressing other chambers within a home. Now, they can breathe easy knowing their home is protected from this invisible threat. Peace of mind is priceless!

The technician made a work around for this home as the crawlspace was really tight and the homeowner wanted a single point system. Gladly, there was a sump basin to start with into the soffit. This was discussed with the client and there was a need of drilling an additional hole for the system to fit, client wasn't happy about it but didn't have much of a choice as the draft discussed was not possible due to the truss being there in the attic. The situation was settled, and the client was happy on how it turned out!
