We self tested for radon and found high levels. Hired Lawson, who first wanted to test for themselves (a good practice, which I agreed with), and confirmed high radon. After multiple delays, they finally installed a radon mitigation system. Subsequent tests still showed high radon levels. Then they punched into our wall under a slab and did more basement sealing. We still had high radon levels. Finally, it dawned on the company to test our water. It seems the radon source was not so much the soil, but our well water. So all the work they did, the punching holes into our slab and walls were unnecessary and didn't solve the problem, but I still had to pay. Then they proposed to mitigate the actual source of the problem--our water supply--at a crazy additional cost. The whole problem could've been avoided if they first tested for all possible radon sources rather that just assume this was a standard "radon coming from the soil" job.

Response from Lawson Home Services, LLC
Thank you for the feedback, [Member Name Removed]. We're sorry to hear about the delays you experienced. We're committed to providing accurate and timely information to our customers, and we regret any inconvenience this may have caused you. We always strive to improve our service, and your feedback is a crucial part of that process. We appreciate your understanding and patience, unfortunately Radon in water is not a common occurrence. According to the EPA only about 1-2 percent of radon in the air comes from drinking water. Houses that have high radon in water also have high radon in the soil. This is why the EPA and AARST first recommend addressing radon in soil, then if the levels do not drop to the desired level to then test for radon in water. I see after the 2nd extraction point, the basement dropped to 3.1 pCi/L and the playroom dropped to 2.7 pCi/L. The playroom was 4.1 pCi/L before we put the 2nd extraction point. These numbers are about half of what they originally tested at. The basement was still a little higher, but this could also be due to the washing machine being in the basement and draining into the basement sink. This allows the gas to freely escape into the air. Testing for Radon in Water is not a common practice and is a bit more costly and sensitive than testing for Radon in the Air. The radon in water mitigation systems as you know cost more than standard Sub-Slab Radon systems. They are a completely different method of removing radon, the equipment costs more than the standard mitigation system and is not as readily available. The price of radon in water systems can vary but some can come with a steep maintenance cost. If you haven't already moved the washing machine drain. I would recommend having a plumber install a drainpipe so the discharge can go directly into the sewer. This will reduce the amount of water being discharged into the open sink. For Radon in water treatment there's only two options for elevated levels like yours. There are the bubbler systems or Airwell.

Still in the process. Large list of projects but moving along as scheduled. The crew here is extremely responsible and professional. They work neatly and cearfully in my home. They do a total clean up at the close of each work day. So far the work is coming along as promised. The project manager takes to time explaining each process in detail and the importance of an energy efficient home. I do not forsee any need to worry about the close of the work. Time will tell the story about the change in efficiencies.

Not good they had to come back three times to fix issues, the workers were very nice but you could tell they were not trained very well. In the end I had to buy foam board and a foam gun and I spent a couple days tearing out some of what they did and redo it. The reason I knew it wasn’t done right after they left you could feel the air still coming in and it was strong enough to blow out a lighter, after I preformed additional foam board and spray foam the air leakage was stopped. Also because of the bad workmanship my rebate was not as high as it could have been after the blower test.

He was able to fix my dryer vent. I didn’t even know cleaning out the vent was a thing until my dryer stopped working. He then noticed the end cap on the exhaust pipe was not correct so he installed the correct kind. I’m a single mom & had no clue it was wrong.

This was the 3rd time we have used Lawson and we have been very pleased each time. The first was a crawl space, the second was to remove old insulation in the attic and replace it. This time we had Lawson install a vent from a bathroom fan and install a Sanadry unit in our basement. No more moisture or musty smell! Great job every time and the men are pleasant to work with and respectful of our home. Neat and tidy work.
