AtlanticRadon made something we had been dreading undertaking very easy and seamless. They installed a radon mitigation system and crawl-space vapor barrier, and worked with us to find the best placement for the systems. The job was carried out quickly and very professionally. I definitely recommend this company, and addressing any radon issue sooner than later. The peace of mind alone from knowing my family’s health is protected is worth the money.

I can't say enough, this was such a great experience. Tommy is superb! My husband and I needed radon mitigation after we purchased a new home. This company expertly installed a mitigation system in our basement that works wonderfully and aesthetically blends into the design of the outside of our home. Now the radon in our basement is lower than the natural levels in the environment. As a working mom with a busy schedule, it was wonderful how Tommy was so prompt and honest with his estimate and communication. His price was very fair and everything was installed as we discussed. Our results were phenomenal. I highly recommend Tommy to preform any work you require.
