Radon Systems LLC

We were getting ready to move into our basement during a ground floor renovation. In the past, we had had a radon test that showed elevated levels, and had corrected that by sealing cracks in the concrete floor. In cleaning up the basement we discovered many more cracks, and feared that radon would again be a problem, and thought we didn't have time to do another test. I called John to see if he could install a remediation system quickly so we could stay on schedule with our renovation. He said he would be happy to do so, but recommended that we first seal the cracks and do a test to see if it is needed. On the phone, he walked me through step by step how we could seal the cracks ourselves (including advising me on what to use to seal them) and he gave me the name of a testing company that would process the test within one day. We sealed the cracks, ran the test and hand delivered it for processing, and had the results, all within a week. The radon levels were below the levels at which remediation is necessary, so John saved us $900 or so by being honest and giving us sound advice. If we ever have a problem where we need a remediation system installed, I will definitely call him! Very helpful, professional, knowledgable and honest. What more could you ask for?

From the initial contact we set up an inspection appointment. John was punctual and professional in the assessment. Some homes are constructed such that either an internal or external system can be installed, so we discussed the pros and cons of each. My wife and I decided on the exterior one and proceeded to schedule it. We asked about payment methods, but they only accept checks, not credit cards. They reconfirmed the day before our scheduled date and were prompt and efficient. Our basement provided an ideal set up, so the installation was completed in less than 3 hours, but they usually plan on 4-5 hrs depending I would recommend Radon Systems to others.

Did a very good job. Highly recommended.

He was great. Very responsive and took care of the job quickly. I did print the $50 dollar coupon but only got $25 off, not sure why. Overall great experience and would recommend and will use him again.

I was very pleased with Radon Systems, LLC. John had a great attention to detail, was professional, courteous and followed through with the services promised.

The C grade is because John could not fix the problem. He came out numerous times to our home to install and later tweak the system, and the radon levels did not decrease. After 3 or 4 visits, he eventually told me my home "may not be fixable." This was not true, as another company later located the source of the radon and levels have now decreased to below EPA action levels. John was however, professional and courteous throughout the entire process. He also refunded my money since part of his service is to guarantee to reduce your radon levels. John honored this guarantee and sent me a refund check promptly after I requested it.

Excellent job. Readings went from 7.9 to 0.4. Profesional from start to finish, highly recommend. Thanks John

Great. They gave us a time estimate of how long it could take, and they actually finished ahead of time. Then, when our post remediation came back a little high (below EPA standards, but not as low as they could have been), they came back a few weeks later (which was actually just within a few days of us getting our results back) and closed up a crawl space in our basement (it should be noted that on their original visit to give a quote, they pointed out this crawl space as something that might need to get closed off, but that as it was not a definite, they could always come back later, with no additional cost other than the normal costs associated with closing off the crawl space). Happy with the results. We can finally go in the basement without feeling the need to hold our breath!

To start off John was always very responsive. He always answered my email inquiries within the same day. One of his staffs came on the day of installation. He arrived right on the time scheduled. The job was done very professionally. Very satisfied with this company's works. Will definitely use them again and reccomend to friends and family.

John came and inspected the site, drew a map of the area, discussed what they would do, gave the estimate and guarantee. He was professional, personable, and direct. We hired him on the spot--our personal experience plus the Angie's List ratings. A couple of weeks later Dave came and installed the system, explaining again what would happen, the guarantee, and proper use of the test kit. Dave was also professional, personable and direct. Just after he left the house, I noticed that one expansion joint had not been sealed. I raced up and out and caught him just as he was going down the drive. He came back in, apologized, and sealed the joint, saving us both the time of a return trip. The exterior fan noise is barely noticeable. When placing my hand on the pipe near the exit from the house I can feel the air rushing by, doing its work. Very satisfying.

The system installed reduced the radon level from an average of 8.3 pCi/L or 0.5 pCi/L which is excellent. John Spokis of Radon Systems was confident of the level of reduction he would achieve but he did a vacuum check up front to show me how well the system was working. The results proved his point. The work was done neatly and very professionally. The exhaust line is blended right in with my rain gutter and is almost undetectable. John provided references which I did check before hiring him. They were excellent and he performed as expected. I would recommend him without reservation. For reference, I did get multiple quotes before hiring Radon Systems.

Sadly, John's company doesn't service the area I needed potential work done, but he still called me back within a couple hours of leaving a message and spent the time to answer my questions without me feeling like I was inconveniencing him at all. I wish all providers were like this!

I needed to have a radon remediation system installed in order to have my home sale move forward with the buyer. Radon levels in the unfinished basement were a little high, but very low (next to nothing) on the 1st floor. The company owner called me back promptly and provided an estimate promptly (as opposed to other radon remediators who didn't return my calls). He explained the entire process, how the system is installed, how it works, and how long it would take. The installer arrived promptly at the scheduled time, and performed the work in the amount of time I expected, and left no mess. The follow-up test kit was simple and instructions clear. The results came back, and the system had reduced the radon levels in the basement to almost zero. Based on my experience, this seems like a company who goes out of their way to explain things to the customer to avoid surprises, returns phone calls promptly, shows up when they are expected, and are efficient.

From the start John was very responsive and clearly knew what he was talking about. We easily scheduled the work and he promptly showed up on the day of the appointment. He walked me through what he was going to do and answered all my questions. We reviewed some different options, but he explained clearly why he was recommending a particular method and number of pipes (ie. I didn't want too many pipes entering the floor, I have both a new basement addition and old original basement). The install went very smoothly and he was very neat and conscientious in the routing of the pipes and pipe hangers. Cleaned up nicely and I could definitely tell that he took pride in his work. We settled the bill and he gave me two radon test to make sure we had solved the problem. He also stated he guarantee of getting radon levels to acceptable limits, all for the original price. Here is the part on why I would recommend Radon Systems, beyond my initial good comments. The testing came back with reduced numbers (50% reduction), but not below the EPA threshold for action. John was quick to come out again and follow up with a bigger fan (initial fan was selected to save energy based on suction tests, etc) and he installed it without hassle. He reiterated his company guarantee to me and was happy to make sure thing worked properly. The test from this modification was still slightly high, and once again John returned to install another pipe into the basement floor. Again, he was happy to come and make additional modifications. This time testing came back at acceptable levels. John and Radon systems are good communicators and hold true to their commitment to solve the problem. You may wonder why he didn't do all the stuff in the beginning but instead in stepwise fashion, but you should understand that it's a consideration of tradeoffs. Fan power consumption vs. suction. Since you have this thing on constantly, you want to try the most efficient fan for long term savings. 2. You don't want to make more holes in the basement floor than you need to and have pipe all over the place. So I actually appreciated his approach of not going full out right away! Finally, when I compared his work to that of another company's at a friends house, I could clearly see he was much more careful, etc. with his workmanship I'd recommend Radon Systems without hesitation.

John was super sweet and efficient. He was also the best quote I received from the total of three estimates I received. He kept to his quote and date/time that he said he'd do the service. He is super friendly and finished the work with no hassle.

Great, John is very responsive and professional. I was very impressed.

It went great. After he finished installing the system I noticed that it could be heard in our bedroom (directly opposite the exterior fan). I called John that evening and he returned in a few days to not only replace the fan, but also reroute the PVC pipe at our request (purely aesthetic reasons). I did a Radon test (provided by Radon Systems LLC) and the results from the lab were 0.4. Our previous short-term test results were between 8 and 12. My fiancé and I were thrilled and couldn't be happier with the work.

See above. Thinking of putting house on market but had reports of high radon in our area. Called Radon Systems, rep was out in 2 days and was very helpful, gave us a plan and a reasonable quote. I thought they would do test; turned out I had to do the test independently and then give them results. Results showed I did not need mitigation, but had I needed it I would have been very comfortable with this firm. No charge for coming out.

It went very well and we have been happy with the results. He worked hard and did it all in one day. I would highly recommend him.

Of the three companies I called, John was the first to return my call and the first to come to the house to give an estimate. All three companies pretty much used the same remediation process, but I used Radon Systems LLC because they not only gave the lowest estimate but also guaranteed the lowest reading post remediation. After deciding to use Radon Systems LLC, John and his assistant came to the house the following week to do the remediation. After verifying placement of the system, they immediately got to work sealing cracks in the basement floor and running the remediation system to the outside of the house. Before I knew it they were done and John explained how the system worked and how to handle the post remediation test. The job site was so neat and clean and the whole system is very unobtrusive. If only all repairs could go this smoothly!!!! The post remediation test came back at 1.2, down from a reading of 7.

They were courteous, professional, knowledgeable and just got right to work. It was installed within a half day. The fan is on the exterior and very quiet. Prior tests showed radon levels at 6+. After the system was installed our levels are around 1.5.

He was very professional and non-confrontational. It was so nice working with him. The quoted price was honored. He was also very prompt and completed when promised.

Kevin did an unbelievable amount of work in a day. He first drilled the floor and cleaned out a cavity for the air system. Then he installed the air system. Then he installed the water system and in the process disconnected an unused water softener system. He then explained how everything worked. He was very professional, clearly explained the system operation, and was very helpful removing the old unneeded system.

He was very professional, clean and explained things reallly thoroughly.

He was really nice and did a good job.
