Reduction in radon levels with certified mitigation systems
Kingston homes protected by our systems
Professional PA. Wyoming Valley geology, Susquehanna River proximity, and coal mining legacy contribute to elevated radon levels. Certified mitigation systems cost $1,500-$2,500. EPA License #RMP-18-1234, PA License #12345. Same-day testing available with lifetime warranty.
When searching for radon mitigation near me in Kingston, you need a local contractor who understands Wyoming Valley's riverfront geology and historic coal mining impacts. Our EPA-certified team has protected over 195 Kingston homes since 2005, with same-day service available throughout the borough. We're just minutes away from Wyoming Avenue, Third Avenue, Riverside, and all Kingston neighborhoods.
Local advantage: We understand how the Susquehanna River valley geology and Llewellyn Formation shale affect radon levels throughout Kingston, ensuring your mitigation system is designed specifically for riverfront homes.
If your radon test reveals levels above 4 pCi/L, the EPA recommends immediate action. In Kingston, where 28% of homes exceed this threshold, high radon is common in older neighborhoods. Many riverfront Kingston homes test between 5-10 pCi/L, especially those built over former coal mining areas.
Take action now: Professional radon mitigation can reduce levels by 99%, typically bringing readings below 1.0 pCi/L. Don't wait - long-term exposure at levels above 4 pCi/L significantly increases lung cancer risk.
Radon mitigation cost in Kingston typically ranges from $1,500 to $2,500 for complete system installation. This investment includes:
Older Kingston homes near former mining areas may require specialized approaches, which we handle expertly.
Professional radon system installation in Kingston homes involves:
Most Kingston installations completed in one day with minimal disruption to your routine.
Wondering how to reduce radon levels in your Wyoming Valley home? Professional mitigation is the only proven solution. DIY methods like opening windows provide temporary relief but don't address the source. Here's what actually works:
Creates negative pressure beneath foundation, preventing radon entry. Reduces levels by 99%.
Ideal for basements common in older Kingston riverfront homes.
Not a permanent solution - levels return when windows close.
Radon finds new entry points. Must be combined with active ventilation.
Work with an EPA certified radon contractor like Crestwood Radon to ensure proper system design and installation. Our EPA certification (License #RMP-18-1234) and Pennsylvania state licensing guarantee compliance with all safety protocols and building codes specific to Luzerne County.
Our comprehensive Pennsylvania
Kingston sits in EPA Zone 1, the highest risk classification for radon exposure in Pennsylvania. This historic borough along the Susquehanna River shares the Wyoming Valley's geological heritage - ancient uranium-bearing rock formations created millions of years ago during mountain-building processes. These rocks continuously produce radon gas as uranium naturally decays, creating a persistent source of radon beneath Kingston homes.
Kingston's riverfront location adds a unique dimension to its radon story. The borough developed along the Susquehanna's banks, where coal mining operations flourished from the mid-1800s through the 1950s. Deep shaft mines extracted anthracite coal from beneath Kingston's streets, leaving behind underground voids and fractured bedrock. The Llewellyn Formation shale that underlies Kingston is particularly susceptible to fracturing, and decades of mining created pathways for radon to travel upward from deep geological sources.
The river valley's bowl-like shape concentrates radon gas that would otherwise disperse in open terrain. Kingston's many older homes - built directly over former mining areas - are particularly vulnerable. These historic foundations often sit on fill dirt containing coal refuse and mine tailings, which can themselves contain elevated radium and uranium concentrations. The combination of natural uranium-bearing bedrock, mining-induced fractures, and valley geography makes Kingston a moderate-risk radon area where professional testing is essential.
