Will a basement digout affect my radon levels?

A properly executed NJ digout actually improves radon outcomes. The new slab is poured over a fresh vapor barrier and a passive radon-ready stub-up, which allows easy activation of a sub-slab depressurization system if post-construction testing exceeds 4 pCi/L, the EPA action level.

Northern and central NJ counties including Morris, Sussex, Hunterdon, and Warren sit in EPA Zone 1 for radon. Building in the radon infrastructure during the digout is far cheaper than retrofitting later.
