Andrew did a great job encapsulating this customer's crawlspace to help lower their radon levels

Jim's basement workshop felt like a man cave – except for the worry about radon. A recent radon test confirmed his fears: dangerous levels of 25 were seeping in.  He envisioned his grandkids playing down there one day, and the thought chilled him more than the radon itself.  The technician explained how a system installed in the utility room would trap radon at its source and vent it safely outside.  He pictured this space as a safe, healthy space, the worry replaced by the comforting hum of the new system – a quiet protection against a silent threat.

This client spends most of his time in his garage and wanted something to protect him from radon exposure as it was on the news their area is considered high levels. He called Iowa Radon Defense for professional radon mitigation services and he was not wrong with his decision!
