Each home is different. Factors include foundation type (slab, basement, crawl space, or combination), home size, accessibility, pipe routing options, and whether additional work like sump sealing is needed.
Is radon mitigation worth the cost?
Given that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, many homeowners consider mitigation a worthwhile investment in their family's health. Additionally, mitigation can be a selling point and may be required for some real estate transactions.
