Radon Gas Mitigation Photo Album: Radon Mitigation in Wilmington, DE 19810
Just after purchasing their 1970s home in Wilmington, this homeowner prioritized radon mitigation upon learning the level measured 7.6 pCi/L. With no crawlspaces and a functioning sump pit already in place, Lawson Home Services designed and installed a mitigation system during the winter months to meet the owner's timeline. The process included evaluating the foundation, utilizing the sump pit as part of the mitigation pathway, and installing the system discreetly to help bring radon levels down closer to the homeowner’s target.
