Radon Mitigation in Waterville, Maine
Protecting Waterville homes and families from radon since 2015
Waterville, home to prestigious Colby College, is a city of nearly 17,000 residents along the Kennebec River in central Maine. The city's neighborhoods range from the stately homes surrounding Colby's hilltop campus to the revitalized downtown centered on Main Street and the Two Cent Bridge. Waterville's granite bedrock—the same geology that provides Colby's beautiful hillside setting—can also produce radon gas that seeps into homes throughout the city. At Central Maine Radon & Water Mitigation, we've helped Waterville families from the West Side neighborhoods to the Kennedy Memorial Drive corridor protect their homes from this invisible threat. Our certified technicians understand the unique challenges presented by Waterville's diverse housing stock.
