Professional Radon Mitigation Services in Florida
Radon is a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas that occurs naturally through the decay of uranium in the building material.
Because every property sits on a different geological footprint, a "one-size-fits-all" approach to radon reduction often fails to provide long-term safety.
When radon enters a structure, it does so through a process called pressure differential—where the air pressure inside your home is lower than the outside pressure inside it "vacuuming" the gas through cracks in the slab, walls, and cement ceilings, penetrations, and construction joints.
Our team, led by Ralph Garafalo, has transitioned to a 90% Radon-focused service model. This specialization allows us to provide a level of technical mastery that general contractors cannot match. By focusing specifically on the high-radon corridors of Lee, Sarasota, and Charlotte Counties.
Our Core Environmental Solutions
We provide a comprehensive path from initial measurement to final mitigation, ensuring your property remains compliant with EPA safety standards and Florida Department of Health regulations.
Residential Radon Mitigation
We specialize in custom radon mitigation systems that prioritize both performance and property value.
By utilizing specialized drilling techniques. We use customized material to ensure the least intrusive installation.
Our residential approach involves a detailed pressure field extension test, which allows us to measure how effectively our system is "pulling" air from outside and injecting it to the inside of home.
Certified Radon Testing
You cannot manage a risk you haven't accurately measured.
As a licensed Radon Measurement Technician (#R1759), we provide laboratory-grade testing for real estate transactions, health compliance, and peace of mind.
Many homeowners rely on hardware store DIY kits, which are often prone to user error and environmental interference.
Our professional testing protocols follow strict Florida Department of Health guidelines to ensure your results are legally and scientifically sound.
We use state approved testing methods to check the levels in your specific building.

Multi-Unit & Commercial Capability
Large-scale properties require large-scale expertise and significant logistical planning.
We are one of the few firms in the region equipped to handle multi-unit radon mitigation for apartments, condos, and high-rise complexes.
Whether your project requires 1 unit or 100+, we have the logistical capacity and crew housing infrastructure to complete the job efficiently.
We work closely with property management firms to provide a seamless installation schedule that minimizes tenant disruption while ensuring the entire complex meets safety thresholds.
Serving the Southwest Florida "Power Four" Hotspots
We have established a dominant service presence in the areas with the highest documented need for radon reduction.
Florida Department of Health data shows that certain pockets of the Gulf Coast have a significantly higher percentage of homes testing above the 4.0 pCi/L action level. By focusing our resources on these specific markets, we provide faster response times and deeper local expertise.
- Radon Mitigation in South Fort Myers & Gulf Harbour (33908): This area features many homes where tight construction can unintentionally trap radon gas.
- Radon Mitigation in Estero & Miromar Lakes (33928): With documented testing averages often exceeding 5.0 pCi/L, Estero is a high-priority zone for mitigation.
- Radon Mitigation in Venice & South Venice (34285): As a historical hotspot for radon activity in Sarasota County, we provide specialized solutions for the unique sand-and-limestone mix found here.
- Radon Mitigation in Punta Gorda Isles (33950): We offer specialized systems designed to work with the high water tables and canal-front architecture of Charlotte County.
The Differentiation: Cleaner Installs & Custom-Fabricated Enclosures
The biggest complaint property owners have with traditional radon systems is the "industrial" look of the installation. Standard systems often use thin-walled PVC and unshielded fans that eventually crack or fail due to Florida's intense UV index.
At Florida Radon Mold & AC, we have solved this through our proprietary custom-fabricated enclosures.
Unlike standard installs that leave fans and wiring exposed to salt air and UV damage, our systems feature:
- Custom-Made Enclosures: We fabricate weather-proof, paintable boxes for outdoor wall mounting that protect the system’s mechanical components from the elements and enhance the system's longevity.
- Aesthetic Integration: Our enclosures are designed to be as unobtrusive as possible, maintaining the curb appeal of your home. We ensure that the system looks like an intentional part of the home
- Precision Drilling: We use specialized core-drilling equipment and radon fans with multiple speeds. This helps with noise reduction and has the ability to shut off the system when not in use. All with a touch of a finger.
Our Triple-Licensed Authority & Trust Signals
In the environmental health industry, credentials are the only currency that matters. Radon is a regulated industry in the state of Florida, and working with an unlicensed contractor can result in systems that are not only ineffective but potentially dangerous. We are proud to be a Triple-Licensed Authority:
- Radon Business License: #RB1816
- Radon Specialist License: #R1767
- Radon Measurement Technician: #R1759
Established in 2009, our firm has maintained an A+ Rating with the Better Business Bureau. Ralph Garafalo’s 20-year legacy in Southwest Florida means we aren't just a vendor; we are your neighbors who understand the local permitting, building codes, and environmental challenges better than anyone else.
Our Full-Service Process: From Testing to Mitigation
We take the guesswork out of radon reduction through a transparent, four-step process designed to give you documented proof of safety:
01
Professional Testing:
We deploy calibrated, state-of-the-art measurement devices to determine your current pCi/L (picocuries per liter) levels over a 48-hour minimum period.
02
We use radon multi speed fans with wired remote controles that includes the ability to turn on and off control. the remote control is simple, and anybody can use it
03
Custom Mitigation Installation: Our technicians install your custom-fabricated system, ensuring all seals are airtight, electrical components are up to code..
04
Follow-Through Verification: After installation, we perform a mandatory post-mitigation test to confirm the system is successfully holding levels below the EPA's 4.0 pCi/L limit. Florida Radon has never has never failed a pre mitigation test, or never had a mold problem. We use mutile speed motors, so no timer is necessary. Our motors are very quiet.
Specialized Support for Condos & Property Managers
Managing a multi-unit property involves balancing tenant safety with budget constraints and long-term liability. We provide
Condo Radon Solutions
that address the unique ventilation and fire-wall requirements of multi-story buildings. Our team is experienced in working with HOAs and property management firms to provide clear documentation and certified results for every afected unit on the property.
Specialized Mold Testing (Diagnostics)
