After seven years in their Newark, DE home, this family learned their radon level had reached 5.3 pCi/L using a consumer-grade detector. With allergy concerns in the household and a clear understanding of radon’s health risks, they didn’t want to wait any longer. They chose Lawson Home Services because expertise mattered most—and they wanted the job done right the first time. The home, built in 2002 with a sump pit and exterior drain tile, had no crawlspaces or recent additions, making it a straightforward install. Our team designed and installed a custom mitigation system that now keeps radon levels in check and gives this family peace of mind. If you've been putting off radon mitigation, now’s the time to act—let Lawson Home Services help protect what matters most.
Radon and open sump pumps.
When inspecting a home for a possible install of a radon mitigation system one of the first things we look for are open penetrations and cracks that are in the basement or crawl area. We want to make sure our pressure barrier (the walls and floor) are sealed as tight as possible so we don’t suck conditioned air from the home and/or make our mitigation system work harder than it needs to.
Along with any cracks and floor joints we ALWAYS make sure our sump pits are securely covered and sealed as you can see.
