TJ Radon

Radon is a radioactive, colorless, odorless, and tasteless naturally occurring gas that can cause lung cancer. It is estimated that more than 20,000 people die each year in America from lung cancer caused by radon exposure. Exposure occurs from breathing in radon through cracks in homes and buildings. The average radon level in Minnesota is three times higher than the national average. For those in South St. Paul, MN, TJ Radon provides comprehensive radon mitigation services.

This local company serves homeowners, realtors, and general contractors throughout the region with dependable radon testing services. These certified specialists have successfully mitigated over 1,000 homes. Clients can count on their tests to determine accurate levels of radon. If numbers are high, sit down with their team to determine a mitigation plan.

The mitigation process varies between three different systems. The sub-slab suction method pulls radon from directly beneath the home’s foundation and vents it outside. A drain tile suction system features a pipe that penetrates the drain tile and vents the soil gases away from the structure. Finally, the sub-membrane system, which is used in crawl spaces, includes a plastic sheet that covers exposed dirt on the floor and wall. A radon pipe penetrates the plastic sheeting, pulling the soil gas from the crawl space and venting it outside.

No matter which option is right for your home, the talented technicians will properly install the equipment, creating a safer environment. Reach out to TJ Radon today at (651) 358-8014 to schedule your free estimate or ask about free testing. You can also visit them online for more information.
