Not impressed with this company at all. While attempting to sell our large home that overlooks the…read moreOhio Valley, two different potential buyers contacted this company to perform home inspections which included testing for radon. Our results were over the action level of 4 pCi/L. Of course, we were panic-stricken and decided to investigate the problem. After numerous hours of research, we found that many factors affect the tests and that this company failed to follow strict EPA protocols. Their report was extremely vague, no details whatsoever, which is required by the EPA. The results contained in the standardized report was a picture of a tripod with a sign on it and a number (not what testing method was used, the number of tests, when the testing took place, how long it lasted, etc.). The EPA recommends fixing your home if the radon level is 4 pCi/L or more. Oddly enough, Mountain State Inspections, LLC also runs a radon mitigation company. Radon is everywhere, and especially abundant here in the Ohio Valley (OH, WV, and PA area) with the average level being 14.7 pCi/L. When a house is tested, it is closed up for days so that there is no air movement. To lower the radon level, a fan is required. Before paying thousands of dollars to reduce the level, do your own research and know that eliminating radon exposure is not possible. According to the US Army Corps of Engineers, "A curie is a standard measure for the intensity of radioactivity contained in a sample of radioactive material. A picocurie is one trillionth of a curie...To put the relative size of one trillionth into perspective, consider that if the Earth were reduced to one trillionth of its diameter, the "picoEarth" would be smaller in diameter than a speck of dust. In fact, it would be six times smaller than the thickness of a human hair."

I highly recommend Ed for your home inspection needs! I recently moved home and started having a…read morelot of allergic symptoms. I contacted Ed and told him I was concerned about mold. He came out quickly, was extremely thorough while trying to keep cost low, and is familiar with biotoxin illness, which was super refreshing! He even recommended a few doctors I could see. He was also really communicative in what he was doing and seeing, pointing out areas that could be concerning. He took a number of samples and I'll get the results in 2-3 days. I told him I'd be recommending him to at least 2 other people!

He was prompt, friendly, and EXTREMELY helpful in testing for mold, but also in reviewing the overall shoddy work of the contractor. He even referred a great lawyer, plumber, and structural repair company! He really has a passion for his job, and for helping people in any way he can. Highly recommend!
