A radon test came back at 4.2, 5.8, or 12.0 pCi/L. The buyer's agent is asking questions. The closing date is two weeks out. That is the call we answer every day at Radon Eliminator, and it is exactly the situation Radon Mitigation in Smith OH is built to solve — quickly, permanently, and to Ohio code.

We are licensed under Ohio Mitigation License RC202, the credential the Ohio Department of Health requires for any contractor installing radon systems in this state. That license is not decorative. It means our installs follow ANSI/AARST standards, our post-mitigation testing is EPA-aligned, and the system we put on your home will pass a re-test, an inspector's review, and a buyer's lender requirements.

Smith is in a part of Ohio where elevated radon readings are common. Ohio's geology — the Wisconsinan glacial till, limestone bedrock, and clay-heavy soils that define much of the state — pushes radon gas upward into basement slabs and crawlspaces year after year. The EPA places most of Ohio in Zone 1, the highest predicted indoor radon level. A 4.0 pCi/L reading in Smith is not unusual. It is also not something to ignore.

Smith homeowners and real-estate professionals choose us for four reasons that competitors in this market do not match:

• Ohio RC202 license — printed on every proposal. Most competitors bury or omit their license number. We lead with it because it is the difference between a permanent fix and a fan swap that fails a re-test.
• Closing-deadline turnaround. We schedule testing and mitigation around your purchase agreement, not the other way around. Many Smith installs are completed within 5 to 7 days of the initial call, including post-mitigation testing.
• Transparent, written pricing. Most Smith residential mitigation systems fall between $1,200 and $2,200 installed. You get the number before we start, not after.
• Multi-vertical credibility. We mitigate schools, apartment complexes, and commercial properties across Ohio. The same crew and standards that pass institutional inspections install on your home in Smith.

That last point matters more than it sounds. If a school district trusts our work to protect a building full of children — under public scrutiny, with strict legal liability — your basement is a straightforward project.

We offer a complete radon solution — testing, mitigation, post-install verification, and ongoing system support — designed specifically for the situations Smith property owners actually face.

Short-term continuous radon monitor (CRM) tests for real-estate transactions, typically delivering results in 48 hours. Long-term alpha-track testing for homeowners who want a year-round average. All testing follows EPA protocols and AARST-NRPP measurement standards. Results come with a written report you can hand directly to your agent, buyer, or lender.

The gold standard for Ohio basements and slab-on-grade homes. We cut into the slab, seal it, and install a sealed PVC vent stack with a calibrated inline radon fan that exhausts above the roofline. Properly designed ASD systems pull radon-laden air out from under the foundation before it ever enters the home — and they reduce indoor radon by 50% to 99% in nearly every case.

For homes in Smith with dirt-floor or partial crawlspaces, we install a 6-mil reinforced vapor barrier sealed to walls and piers, then tie it into an active fan system. This solves radon and moisture at the same time — a common combination in older Smith-area homes built on clay subsoil.

Apartment owners, property managers, school districts, and commercial landlords across Ohio carry legal exposure when radon levels exceed 4.0 pCi/L. We design and install multi-suction-point systems engineered for large footprints, with U-tube manometers on every riser and documentation packages that satisfy auditors, insurers, and the Ohio Department of Health.

One of the most common fears we hear: "I don't want an ugly white pipe on the front of my house." Our standard design routes the vent stack through the garage, an interior chase, or the rear elevation whenever the home's layout allows. We walk every Smith homeowner through routing options before we ever drill a hole.

Every Smith project follows the same predictable, documented sequence. No surprises, no scope creep.

1. Diagnostic site visit (24–48 hours from your call). A licensed technician inspects the foundation, identifies suction points, and produces a fixed-price proposal with a routing diagram.
2. Installation (typically 4–8 hours, one day). We core the slab, seal joints, run the vent stack, mount the fan outside or in an attic, and install the system manometer. Most installs are complete in a single visit.
3. Post-mitigation testing (48–96 hours after install). We deploy a CRM and verify the system has driven indoor radon below 4.0 pCi/L — usually well below 2.0 pCi/L. You receive a signed report.
4. Documentation and warranty. You get the install package, system labeling per Ohio code, a transferable warranty on the system, and a 5-year warranty on the radon fan.

Radon Eliminator is headquartered in Akron and serves Smith along with the broader Stark, Mahoning, and Columbiana County corridor. We know the housing stock here — the post-war ranches with shallow block-wall basements, the 1970s split-levels with partial crawlspaces, and the newer slab-on-grade builds going up along the SR-9 and US-62 corridors. Each foundation type calls for a different suction strategy, and we have installed in all of them.

We also work directly with the home inspectors, Realtors, and title companies that handle Smith-area closings. If your inspector flagged radon during the contingency window, we coordinate testing and remediation timing with your agent so the deal stays on track. Ohio law requires sellers to disclose known radon results on the Residential Property Disclosure Form — we make sure the disclosure you sign reflects a mitigated, documented system, not an open question.

Beyond Smith, we mitigate properties across Columbus, Cleveland, Canton, and surrounding Ohio communities. The same RC202-licensed team handles every job.

If you are a Smith-area home inspector or real-estate agent: we run a structured referral program with named-partner pricing, priority scheduling for your clients, and same-day proposal turnaround. Your clients get a deal that closes on time. You get a reliable radon partner who never misses a contingency deadline. Contact us to be added to the partner list.

Pricing is one of the most common reasons Smith homeowners call multiple contractors and get five different numbers. Here is our straightforward range:

• Standard residential ASD system: $1,200 – $1,800
• Complex routing or multiple suction points: $1,800 – $2,500
• Crawlspace sub-membrane systems: $1,800 – $2,800
• Pre- and post-mitigation testing: $150 – $250 per test
• Commercial and multi-family: Custom-engineered, quoted after site visit

Financing is available on most residential projects. Every proposal is fixed-price and written — you will never get an invoice higher than the number we quote.
