Installation happened smoothly, with great communication all around. They offer a great, needed service and I feel reassured knowing they will deal with any issues if they arise in the future! Radon Free because of this awesome company!!!”

Michelle M.

“I've been using Environmental Works for years because they're great, and I just discovered something else they do very well--classes to educate homeowners and real estate professionals about the risks and various factors affecting homes. Joel, one of the owners, did a very thorough and fascinating presentation to a group of seasoned Realtors in our office--and all were blown away by his great communication and advocacy. I highly recommend Environmental Works as educational research for anyone involved in home ownership.”

Corey E.

“Both the managing and the on-site staff who actually installed the radon mitigation system were easy to work with. Specifically, I found them to be easy to communicate with and that they listened to my concerns. I was also very pleased in how they were able to route the mitigation system around obstacles in my laundry room so the piping receded as far back into the corner as possible.”

Diedra C.

“Environmental Iron Works responded to my request for help the same day. Issue was resolved that day by Joel & Jacob. I appreciate Steve & Colby coordinating this last minute request on a Friday afternoon. Very professional and speedy response for help.”

Nikki D.

“I truly would recommend this company to anyone- specifically because of the customer service and value I received having Joe come on site. Joe at Environmental Works went way above and beyond helping me locate a very a hard to find tank in the backyard. He came back on site twice to get the job done and I could not be more thankful for his time. I truly would recommend this company to anyone- specifically because of the customer service and value I received having Joe come on site. 10/10, amazing company to work with!”
