Why choose Sierra Nevada Radon

  1. 1

    Permitted and documented

  3. 3

    Careful craftsmanship

    We cut PVC pipe by hand and de-burr every edge, so glue joints are strong and sealed per the manufacturer's specification. We don't use a Sawzall.

The right insurance matters

Mitigation means designing a system that changes your home's air pressure and ventilation. We carry:

  1. 1

    General Liability

    Standard coverage for property damage and injury on the job.

  2. 2

    Design Errors & Omissions

    Covers the mitigation system design itself. Design engineering coverage.

  3. 3

    Pollution Liability

    Covers work with pollutants like radon, a regulated soil gas that most contractor policies exclude.

Mitigation is a risky DIY project

We've fixed many faulty DIY systems. It's not worth it.

  1. 1

    Leave it to the pros

    DIY homeowners consistently underestimate the labor and expertise involved with installing a radon mitigation system.

  2. 2

    Still expensive

    Concrete core drilling equipment rental alone runs a couple hundred dollars. And what is your time worth?

  3. 3

    No documentation

    A DIY system can be a liability at resale. A professionally installed system is a documented asset for future buyers.

Sierra Nevada Radon can help you breathe easy.
