Short Radon/ Crawlspace Encapsulation Video

This is the most cost effective way to remove radon by crawlspace encapsulation that I know of.
I hope you find the content of this video helpful.

You deserve acknowledgement of your Gene Wilder Wonka egg.

I just put a bid on a mitigation job that is a part of a real estate transaction. I incorporated an estimate for a nice encapsulation system through a third-party company. We'll see if the seller pulls the trigger with the big price tag. I'm enjoying your videos. Thanks for posting them. Btw, I actually joined Michael (Crawl Space Ninja) for 3 or 4 videos earlier this year.

Good luck EnviroSolutions! Lately, I've been making videos describing what I will do at the home (while at the home). It's helped land me more jobs. Hope it helps!

Thank you for the explanation at the end. My builder cut a lot of corners. After having my new home inspected the inspector said he'd never seen a radon system set up like mine. I was worried that the builder shafted me on the system. I now understand it's bare minimum lol. Is it normal to have the fan inside the crawl space with the exhaust just on the side of my home less than a foot from the ground?

Great video. Thanks for sharing. In your area do you charge per the sf? What is something like this going to run Bob the seller roughly?

[@radonman6800]

Hi Logan. I hesitate to talk $ for a couple reasons: I know people that are compensated almost twice what I charge. However they live in a place where the cost of living is much higher. It’s all about YOUR market and the market is ruthless in the sense that it will pay what it will pay. I don’t want you to leave money on the table by going off of my prices. So the best advice I can give is to reach out to your fellow mitigators. It’ was one of the best decisions I ever made and every one I reached out to was kind to me and even referred business to me when they were covered up.

@@radonman6800 I understand completely. That’s why I used “roughly “. Great videos keep it up thanks

I had a radon company come in and give an estimate. He said I needed 20 mil plastic. I believe I have 6 mil plastic already on the dirt. Should I look for another company to do the work? He said the plastic was $25.00 per sq ft. He estimated that for the plastic and fan were going to run $3,750.00. Does that sound right?

Did you get your crawl space done?

[@dennykeaton9701]

That sounds expensive

[@mkmason2002]

@@chirina5 Yes! it was my cellar. Swat had to place vacuums in two areas and gave me the largest fan they make and charged me,......drum roll,.... $1,550.00! The installers were the nicest people I ever had to do business with. It was 90-95 4egrees in the cellar. It took 2 days and at least 15 hours to complete the job. I highly recommend SWAT.

By taking care of the seller, haven't you short changed the buyer by doing the bare minimum? Is it protected adequately?

[@radonman6800]

Hi Donna. Let's pretend that in order to sell your home, you must provide the buyers with a new car that you will never enjoy. Would you buy them a new Ford Focus or a new Mercedes Benz? Both cars are safe and get you from A to B. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

@@radonman6800 hello sir! What did you do to the end of the corrugated pipe? Did you put a screen or not?

[@radonman6800]

@@akatkdboi I have not found that a screen is necessary with corrugated pipe under the black plastic underlayment. However, I do use a screen as critter or leaf guard at the top of the vent or exhaust. Thanks for watching!
