Radon Mitigation Whitewater WILifetime Radon is the most highly regarded radon company in all of Wisconsin, and have covered the Whitewater area for over 21 years. Radon can rear its ugly head at the worst times and we understand that. We deal a lot with real estate transactions where a homeowner goes to sell their home and all of a sudden a high radon test makes the deal a whole lot more stressful. These days, home buyers want the home they are purchasing to be below the EPA action level of 4.0pCi/L before they move in. That requires a company like us to come in before closing and remediate the radon issue and get back optimal test results fast. Whitewater is at an elevated risk of having homes with high radon levels because of the radon zone it lies in. In fact, a study done by the Wisconsin DHS from 1995-2016 showed that 53.7% of homes evaluated in Whitewater had radon levels at or above 4.0pCi/L. The cost to repair your homes radon gas issue in Whitewater is usually between $850-$1500 depending on how the home is built. There are a few different factors that determine the price for a radon mitigation system, and after these factors are discovered, whether it be by asking you questions over the phone or walking through your home in person we can generate an accurate estimate. Give us a call for a free and accurate estimate, or to set-up a time to have a technician walk you through the process!
What is Radon?It is surprising and a little scary how few homeowners know about the dangers of radon gas. Radon comes from the decay of radioactive materials such as uranium in the soil and it rises up to dissipate in the air. However when a home is in the way of its path to dissipate in the air, radon gets trapped underneath the structure and starts to slowly seep in anyway it can. Once inside of the home, the radon gas gets trapped and starts to slowly build up into elevated levels. The decay chain of radon is what affects our health. When it gets into our lungs over a long period of time it has been proven to cause lung cancer.
