HOW RADON ENTERS YOUR HOME Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas released from the decay of uranium in soil, rock, and water. Due to pressure differences between the soil and your home, radon is drawn into your house through foundation cracks and other...
The setting is your home and community, where an unseen and silent intruder named Radon poses a threat. You are the protagonist, with your family, friends, and community members playing supporting roles. Together with the heroes of the state radon control officer,...
As of July 1, 2023, Montgomery County, MD now requires radon testing for both multifamily (including condominiums) and single-family rental properties that are at or below grade. This mandate also includes the disclosure and mitigation of radon hazards above a...
Radon mitigation systems work 99% of the time. They are very effective in reducing radon levels in people’s homes. Their installation time is low but the effectiveness is high. Radon mitigation systems are not very costly and the effects can be great. But when and how...
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas. It is naturally found in the atmosphere and in the soil at times. Radium, thorium, and uranium decay and become radon as a byproduct. It is absolutely imperceptible to humans and is colorless, odorless, and tasteless....
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.

Tommy and his team came highly recommended, and they did not disappoint.
My new house had a radon level above the 4.0 max requirement, so Tommy came out to install the passive pipe fan. Unfortunately, the pipe was disconnected somewhere within the walls between the basement and attic, but long story short, Tommy worked his magic. End result, 0.2 radon level.
In addition to the professionalism and amazing work quality, Tommy is very good in terms of communication, and will guide you through each step of the process.
I would highly recommend Atlantic Radon and Tommy's team.

Tommy is a consummate professional, a straight shooter, and an excellent communicator. He and his team (Austin did a lot of the on-the-ground work) were extremely quick, clean, and efficient in the install, solving some small engineering challenges on the fly. I came to Tommy with a bunch of questions about the systems they use and the results we could expect (our house in Annapolis was below the EPA limit prior to mitigation, but we hoped to get lower) and he was clear, deliberative, and in no way trying to sell me something as he taught me bits of his trade.
I will recommend Atlantic Radon to anyone in the area in need of a radon test, radon mitigation, or sump-pump repair and maintenance, and would trust them in any project they were involved in. Tommy, who has experience doing home inspection, was overall really knowledgeable and helpful, and connected us with local contractors for other projects before we move in. I really couldn't have been more pleased.

I had two houses that failed the radon test (above 4.0). Atlantic Radon responded quickly to both residences, did their own computer measurement, and installed their radon mitigation, all at a very reasonable price. The results were excellent, with one house getting a 0.7 average and the other a 0.9. I recommend them highly.
