The housing you’re mitigating
The historic core brings brick and stone foundations with cellars and partial basements. Farm properties bring mixed foundations under one roof — basements, crawl areas, and slab additions — plus private wells raising a separate radon-in-water question. Newer development is conventional construction.

Versailles questions, answered straight
Our farmhouse has several foundation types. How is that quoted?
Zone by zone, usually on one fan. The contractor identifies every soil-contact surface — basement slab, crawl areas, slab additions — and designs suction plus membrane work so the whole footprint is addressed. Ask each bidder to name the zones.
We are on a private well. Does radon apply to water?
It can. Radon dissolved in well water is released indoors during showers and washing — a separate exposure path with its own test and treatment. Fix the air first, then test the water.
Do detached barns need mitigation?
No. Radon exposure is about the air you breathe for hours at a stretch, which means the house. Slab outbuildings are not part of a residential mitigation scope.
