Before we start going through the home, we will sit down with you to see what your primary concerns are, and we will make these issues a priority. Once we have completed the audit, we will talk with you again to go over the results and our findings. Based on what we uncover, we will make recommendations to fix your home and create a more energy-efficient environment you and your family will enjoy for years to come!

Radon Testing & Mitigation 

Radon is a naturally occurring invisible & odorless gas that can have a big impact on the air quality of your home. Radon is also the second leading cause of lung cancer after cigarette smoke. High levels of radon gas are commonly found throughout Delaware & E. Shore Maryland and because radon gas cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted the only way to ensure that you and your family are not affected by this dangerous gas is to have one of our experts visit your home and perform proper testing. Radon testing is the fastest & most effective way to ensure the safety of your family. Depending on the results of the test, Lawson Home Services can offer several radon mitigation solutions that will limit exposure to the gas and also ventilate it away from your home. Our radon mitigation methods are highly successful and we always stand behind our work! To learn more about radon gas mitigation and testing call or click today!

Job Stories From Bridgeville, DE
Radon Testing in Bridgeville, Delaware

Why They Needed Radon Testing:

An apartment building in Bridgeville proactively sought radon testing services from Lawson Home Services. Radon is a naturally occurring gas that can seep into buildings and pose health risks if left unchecked. Regular radon testing is the only way to identify potential radon exposure and ensure the safety of residents.

Why They Chose Lawson Home Services:

The building management likely chose Lawson Home Services due to their commitment to comprehensive testing and resident health. Lawson Home Services' utilization of state-of-the-art equipment, adherence to strict testing standards, and focus on strategic device placement demonstrate their expertise in radon gas testing.

The Cause of the Potential Problem:

The potential problem lies in the inherent risk of radon exposure in any building. Radon gas can seep into structures through cracks and foundations, accumulating to dangerous levels if undetected. Radon testing allows for the identification of any such concerns.

How We Fixed the Problem (Testing, Not Mitigation):

Lawson Home Services addressed the potential problem by conducting a comprehensive multi-family radon testing project. This involved deploying radon testing devices strategically throughout the building to create a complete picture of potential radon issues in each unit.

Uniqueness of the Situation:

This project emphasizes the importance of proactive radon testing in multi-family dwellings. Regular testing helps ensure the safety of all residents by identifying potential radon exposure before it becomes a health concern.

Energy Audit reveals energy wasting flaws in Bridgeville, DE home

Finding the places in your home where energy is leaking away and running up your utility bills can be hard for people who aren't trained to see them.  Lawson Home Services' Energy auditors are trained and certified by the Building Performance Institute (BPI) and can quickly find the major problem areas in your home that need improvement. 

 

Ryan Wurzel, one of Lawson's Energy Auditors, recently conducted an audit of this home, built in 2009, in Bridgeville, DE. Here are just a few of the many places Ryan went looking for problems: 

  • Did you know your dryer uses more energy than any other household appliance? One of the problems we most often find is crimped, kinked dryer connections, and dryer vents that are clogged with years of soggy lint.
  • The attic floors of most homes, even newly constructed ones, are typically loaded with all kinds of flaws left behind during the original construction, that provide a route for air which the homeowner has paid to heat or cool, and dehumidify, to escape through hollow wall cavities, forced by natural pressures inside the home. This valuable air gets pushed up into the attic and then is swept away into the wild blue yonder. Over time this results in thousands of dollars, spent for nothing. You can see in the picture just such a place - a huge unsealed hole where the wiring comes up from the wall cavity below into the attic. Multiply this by every electrical fixture mounted in the ceiling of your home and you see how they add up to leak away your conditioned air. 
  • The blower door and gauge shown in the picture, is a device the auditor temporarily installs, typically in your front door. It is a large powerful fan that pulls a slight vacuum on a house to a standard pressure, then measures the amount of air flowing through the opening. This is a direct indication of just how leaky a home is. When Dr. Energy Saver prescriptions are followed this test will be run again to see how effectively all those little holes and cracks were sealed by Lawson's hard working crew.

These are but a few of the many things Lawson Home Services' eagle-eyed energy auditors will discover about your home. In the end you will receive a detailed report from the Energize Delaware Program listing everything that could be done to save you money in the long run. Your out-of-pocket expense at the time of this web posting (Nov 2023) is just $50 after the huge subsidy provided by the Energize Delaware Program. Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity while the program is still available.

Homeowners Look to Lower Energy Costs in Bridgeville, DE

Many homeowners overlook the effect an attic has on the well being of a home.  A properly insulated attic makes a dramatic difference in terms of heating and energy costs.  When homeowners Keith and Jennifer K. found their heating bill to be quite expensive and their home to be cold, they wondered what the problem could be.  The couple began searching for solutions online when they came across Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva, whom they contacted to come check out their home.

The following week, the couple was met by Delmarva energy-saving specialist William DeLauder at their Bridgeville home.  The couple explained to William their problem and William knew exactly where to begin.  William eventually made his way to the attic where he noticed how poorly insulated it was, resulting in huge losses in heat and more importantly, money.  William explained to the couple their current situation but reassured them he knew exactly what to do.  Michael said that they were going to need to rip out the old fiberglass insulation and replace it with TruSoft blown-in insulation, an ideal insulation for attics due to its densely packed nature.  Similarly, for an added layer of protection William recommended closed cell spray foam insulation.  This insulation has an expanding property and works as an air barrier to seal the attic and keep all the heat in.   In conjunction with these, William suggested a 4” SilverGlow R20 insulation board to ensure the attic stays well insulated throughout the winter months.

With the suggested products agreed upon, William called upon Delmarva’s Production Team One to complete the installation process.  With their attic now well insulated, Keith and Jennifer no longer have to worry about turning up the heat in the winter and losing money and its all thanks to the professionals at Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva.

Homeowner Finds Cold Spots in her Bridgeville Home

Bridgeville homeowner Cassandra R. found herself in a bit of a predicament when she noticed that her home was colder than usual, even with the heat on.  Looking for a professional evaluation, Cassandra decided to call the professionals at Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva after hearing positive things from a neighbor of hers who just had her garage insulated.

Shortly after making the call, Cassandra found herself met by Delmarva representative Michael Alicknavitch.  After explaining her situation to Michael, he went to evaluate parts of the home that he knew caused this sort of problem.  After analyzing the basement, crawl space and attic, Michael deduced that Cassandra’s attic insulation was wearing thin and noticed her crawl space had an excessive amount of moisture in it.  Thankfully he had ideal solutions for both cases.  For the attic, he recommended TruSoft blown-in insulation and to seal the perimeter of the attic.  For the crawl space, he recommended CleanSpace drainage matting to be installed over the ground floor.  This specialized matting drains existing moisture and prevents future water from penetrating into the crawl space.  He also suggested closed cell spray foam insulation.  This type of insulation is ideal for crawl spaces due to its dense nature and its properties as an air and water barrier.  After walking Cassandra through the installation process, Cassandra agreed that this was the best possible solution.

With the recommended products agreed upon, Michael called in Delmarva’s very own Production Team One to complete the installation process.  Cassandra no longer has to worry about her home being unusually cold anymore and it’s all thanks to the professionals at Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva and its products!
