Radon Mitigation Photo Album: Radon Mitigation in Norcross, GA 30071

Early Detection, Seamless Resolution: Robert, soon-to-be seller of a property located at Norcross, GA (30071), discovered elevated radon levels (6.6 pCi/L) during a routine home inspection. Demonstrating a commitment to a healthy living environment for future residents and a smooth sales process, Robert contacted Georgia Radon Defense promptly. Our team worked diligently to address the issue before closing, ensuring a valuable selling point for Robert's property. Addressing a Dual Challenge: Robert's home presented a unique challenge with both an unfinished basement and a crawlspace, which can be separate entry points for radon gas. Our expertise allowed us to design a comprehensive mitigation system, enhancing the home's overall appeal to potential buyers. Custom Tailored Approach: Georgia Radon Defense designed and installed a custom mitigation system for Robert's home. This system incorporated the following elements: Unfinished Basement Mitigation (Base System & Additional Tap): A base system would have been installed, utilizing sub-slab depressurization (SSD) to effectively remove radon gas from beneath the concrete slab in the unfinished basement. An additional tap might have been strategically placed to target specific areas of radon accumulation. Crawlspace Encapsulation: This technique involves sealing the crawlspace walls and floor with a durable vapor barrier, effectively preventing radon gas from entering the living space above. Rapid Radon Testing and Peace of Mind: Following the installation of the mitigation system and crawlspace encapsulation, a rapid radon test was conducted. The results confirmed a significant reduction in radon levels, bringing them down to a safe 1.2 pCi/L, well below the EPA's recommended action level of 4 pCi/L. With this successful mitigation, Robert can now offer peace of mind to potential buyers, knowing his home provides a healthy environment. This mitigation system also becomes a valuable selling point, demonstrating Robert's commitment to a well-maintained property.
