"I recently purchased a foreclosure which tested with elevated levels of Radon during the home inspection. There were some companies that offered significantly less expensive solutions, but not impressed as their bids provided no information and would have been out the basement and up the side of the home which does not look very nice. Midwest Radom came out and we found a route out the basement, through the garage up through unfinished attic space, and out the roof which allowed the exit pipe to come out the roof on the backside of the home. This was actually decided upon during the initial install when we discovered the original solution presented by the estimator was not workable. They were not going to put firestop collars because I live in MO and "that is not required by code" even though I had discussed it with the owner when I first called, because I had done my homework and learned they are important and asked for them. They were going to charge more, but ended up honoring their original offer which I appreciate and feel is reasonable for some 4" PVC pipe, 2 X 2 plastic sheet, 4" radon fan, vacuum gauge, 2 fire collars, and 1 roof penetration flashing with 3-4 hours of labor with 2 technicians. They had to do a penetration from the basement to the garage and from the garage to the attic space. They pulled from an existing outlet for power for the fan and a final penetration out the roof. It took 2 trips to complete the work because it was raining or snowing the first trip they made. They charged $1005.00 for the job and took less than 4 hours to complete. They also performed a follow-up test which showed a decrease in Radon levels in the safe range. I highly recommend Midwest Radon because their price was fair for a good job done to my expectations based on industry best practices which are higher than what the state of Missouri presently requires."

$martmoves Home Energy & Comfort Survey of Sunrise Beach selected to Represent Missouri Department of Natural Resources at the 2011 Missouri State Fair We are proud to announce that “$martmoves Home Energy & Comfort Survey”, a Division of $martmoves Cost Reduction Systems, Inc., was selected to represent the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (DNR) at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia. It was fantastic to meet with hundreds of Missouri home owners and to help them make their homes more energy efficient and more comfortable year round. The best part was showing how to save money at the same time; after all, this is the Show Me State The State of Missouri wants its homeowners and citizens to have a “Home Energy Audit” to reduce your heating and cooling costs and to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, but you need to know what an Energy Audit IS NOT. An energy audit does not sell stuff; we don’t sell windows, siding or insulation. What the Energy Audit does is show you, the home owner, where your house is losing condition air and letting in hot or cold air, uncontrolled from outside. The state of Missouri offers a tax incentive to cover the cost of having a Home Energy Audit for your home and also offers another tax incentive to have any energy improvements or upgrades completed.

You can buy DIY radon test kits from a home improvement store and conduct radon testing, but these tests are often inaccurate. No matter the result, you should supplement DIY testing with professional radon detection and analysis. DIYers only have access to passive radon tests, which aren’t as reliable as active tests that professionals use. Plus, it’s very easy for DIYers to make mistakes during testing, leading to inaccurate results. If you’re moving into a new home, have concerns about radon, or are due for an updated test, hire a professional.
Radon testing costs depend on whether you hire a professional radon inspector or DIY test. You can expect to pay $150 to $800 to hire a local radon inspector, and home-testing kits range in price from $15 to $250 from home improvement stores. However, it’s best to trust a professional inspector with this task to ensure accurate results. Plus, if you have radon in your home, your testing company can develop a mitigation protocol to keep you and your family safe from the dangerous gas, so it’s well worth the money to hire a professional.
If radon is present in your home, you can expect to pay around $1,000 for a radon mitigation system or between $780 and $1,250 in most cases. The exact price will depend on the severity of the radon leak, home size, and the protocol the radon specialist develops to remove radon from your home and keep it out. Your foundation type will also affect your radon mitigation system cost, as unfinished basements will cost about $4,600 to seal and ventilate, while crawl spaces without a foundation slab may need extra encapsulation, costing $1,500 to $15,000.
Yes, radon testing is absolutely necessary if you suspect the presence of this hazardous gas, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends testing for all homes in the country. Radon is a pervasive natural gas that can leak through your home’s foundation and seep into the living areas. Unfortunately, the gas is highly carcinogenic and is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Radon testing is crucial for keeping you and your family safe from harm, so hire a radon mitigation specialist to test your home if you suspect its presence in your home.
In most states, radon testing companies don’t need to be licensed or certified by the state, but the companies that analyze the test results and develop radon mitigation protocols do. You should choose a radon testing company that suits your needs, but before hiring a mitigation specialist, check our state licensing tool to make sure the company is properly certified.
