Can I seal my finished basement?

Frequently Asked Questions - RadonSeal
If you can lift or remove the floor covering, chances are good that you will reduce radon significantly. Many homeowners do that. Most radon gets in through the floor, because it is trapped underneath the slab between footings. quot;Should I caulk around the bottom of the existing paneled walls?" It would be useless, because radon easily passes through drywall and paneling. Just like paints, tile adhesives are attacked by alkalis from the concrete. Lift and discard the tiles.

Is my remodeling project a good investment?

Frequently Asked Questions
That depends. As a general issue, no matter what your project is, if it is poorly designed and constructed, you have wasted 100% of your investment, so beware of low bidders. It is better to pay 10% - 20% more up front and have a solid investment to show for it, than to "save" 10%-20% and lose the other 80% entirely. There are many services available which attempt to generically answer your return-on-investment questions. Some are more useful than others.
