3rs construction: 3Rs Construction Reviews Stanley Watras and Radon Mitigation - 06/02/17 10:12 AM
The Discovery of Radon in HomesDid you ever wonder why we ever started doing radon testing and radon mitigation in homes? Did someone just get up in the morning and think to themselves, "I think I'll check my house for radon today." No ...that would be silly! But, it's actually a very interesting tale!
