Customer Testimonials

I couldn't be more pleased with the radon mitigation services performed by Tommy Hughes, the owner of Atlantic Real Estate Services. He fully explained what he would do, came on time, did what he promised and left the work place clean. I highly recommend using his services.

Atlantic Radon recently installed a radon remediation system at our house. Our radon levels went from 4.5 to .8, so we are very happy with the results. I find the owner, Tom, to be highly knowledgable, professional and honest. Another company wanted to charge more than double to do unnecessary work. Tom took a step by step approach, meaning that if the initial radon remediation did not do the trick, he would then look into doing additional work like sealing the crawlspace. He also didn't try to upsell me on a sump pump, pointing out the reasons why it wasn't necessary at this time. If you go with this company, you can't go wrong!

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.
