Tommie was kind enough to fit me into an already tight schedule and did a great job. I contacted Atlantic Radon based on their Google reviews and was very impressed. I totally recommend them.

We are in a new construction home and did a couple radon tests that came back ~20 pCi/L. We asked Atlantic Real Estate Services to install a Radon Mitigation system, which went really well! The latest test showed less than ~0.8 pCi/L.

* Scheduling - It was really easy with scheduling time for the initial walkthrough, a day to install the system, and follow up. Tommy worked around our schedule and always messaged shortly before arriving.

* Communication - He made sure we understood each step of the process and its purpose as he went along.

* Attention to Detail - He made it blend into the house aesthetics and even filled in a few spots the builder missed.

* Cost - It's within the range we expected for this type of system. And definitely worth the quality.

I would definitely recommend this company.
