Radon is a cancer-causing, naturally occurring, radioactive gas. Rocks with uranium were pushed by glaciers and were deposited in this area. Radon is the last breakdown of uranium when it becomes a gas. It enters through seams and gaps in the foundation. Testing is the only way to determine your radon level. Order your test today.

EIFS (Exterior Insulation Finish Systems) is a wall finished system that has the appearance of stucco. Severe structural problems can occur behind incorrectly installed and leaking EIFS systems even though the exterior surface appears normal. We recommend you have an inspection to identify the problem locations and to determine what repairs may be required. Click the button below to read more about EIFS.

Mold is a living organism that produces spores. Mold spores are found on most surfaces, interior and exterior.
