Before we start going through the home, we will sit down with you to see what your primary concerns are, and we will make these issues a priority. Once we have completed the audit, we will talk with you again to go over the results and our findings. Based on what we uncover, we will make recommendations to fix your home and create a more energy-efficient environment you and your family will enjoy for years to come!

Radon Testing & Mitigation 

Radon is a naturally occurring invisible & odorless gas that can have a big impact on the air quality of your home. Radon is also the second leading cause of lung cancer after cigarette smoke. High levels of radon gas are commonly found throughout Delaware & E. Shore Maryland and because radon gas cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted the only way to ensure that you and your family are not affected by this dangerous gas is to have one of our experts visit your home and perform proper testing. Radon testing is the fastest & most effective way to ensure the safety of your family. Depending on the results of the test, Lawson Home Services can offer several radon mitigation solutions that will limit exposure to the gas and also ventilate it away from your home. Our radon mitigation methods are highly successful and we always stand behind our work! To learn more about radon gas mitigation and testing call or click today!

The wise homeowner of this Millsboro, DE home is well aware of the dangers of radon gas accumulation inside the home and wants to take the necessary steps to reduce the risk for himself and the occupants of his home.

Home Energy Audit in Millsboro, DE

It would be a shame if any Delaware homeowner missed the opportunity to have their home evaluated by an Energize Delaware Audit. At this time (Dec 2023) these audits are almost entirely subsidized by Energize Delaware, resulting in a cost of just $50 to the homeowner ($25 if you are military or a first responder). These government subsidized programs aren't always going to be available so you should to act now. There are so many reasons why.

If you knew you were going to be spending $10,000 over the next for electricity and gas anyway, and rather than giving it to the utilities company you could instead spend it on your house, be more comfortable, and have healthier indoor air quality, wouldn't you do that?

An energy audit will provide you a plan to do just that. The energy auditor will conduct an inspection of your home and conduct a few tests. That information gathered during the audit is then entered into the technical software employed by Energize Delaware which then computes all the information. A report is generated which can help the homeowner understand exactly the most effective measures to install, and showing how long it will take for the investment to pay for itself. It will also compute projections showing the savings that are likely to result over the next 20 years. Have a look at the picture below for a sample of an audit recently conducted at this home in Millsboro, DE. That's information this homeowner can bank on! 

So why not call Lawson Home Services to schedule an Energize Delaware Energy Audit. The $50 you spend could result in thousands of dollars of savings, improve the value and comfort of your home, and improve the health of the home occupants.

Dryer duct clean out in Millsboro, DE

Most dryer duct clean out jobs are fairly straightforward like this one. Although the before picture doesn't look nearly as bad as many of the dirty dryer ducts our technician runs across, it was substantially blocking the flow of air. This increases dryer run times and runs up utility bills in a hurry. You don't need that. 

In addition to the clean out, our technician found something that is fairly common, a split flex hose. These hoses are pretty thin and often get crimped in between the back of the dryer and the wall, causing the hose to split apart like this one did. The warm moist air spews out onto the floor and wall, leaving moisture to condense and form puddles. It can also put a lot of sneeze causing dust in the air. These repairs are fairly quick and inexpensive.
We're pretty busy this time of year with dryer clean outs. So you'd better call Lawson Home Services and let us schedule for a clean out next time we are in your town.

Radon Mitigation System in Millsboro, DE

Radon is serious. It can strike without warning. Suddenly someone gets a lung cancer diagnosis - a big surprise to a person who never smoked cigarettes, nor ever lived with a smoker.

Radon lurks like a silent killer, often hanging out in your basement. It is odorless, colorless, and worst of all RADIOACTIVE.  It decays into radioactive particles that team up with the dust in your house. You breathe it in and it lodges in your lungs and begins altering your DNA. That's how cancer happens. 

The good new is: there is something all homeowners can do. The first and most important thing is to get your home tested, preferably by a reliable company that specializes in radon testing and mitigation.

Lawson Home Services is Delaware's number one leading expert in radon testing and mitigation. We employ the only certified radon compliance inspector in the state of Delaware. With Lawson's you can trust that you've chosen the best to protect you and your loved ones from the deadly exposure to radon gas. Call us today to schedule a radon test in your home. If the tests show you are in the zone for action then Lawson's can also install your mitigation system.
