Default Fed up with Radon

did OP ask this question awhile ago before doing all the floor work?
someone did and was told radon should be fixed before finishing space.

too many want look pretty befor fixing key essentials. like laminate
flooring in a basement that only takes in water every few years.

If you have access to under your home from outside, a electric drill
with extensions can drill a one inch hole 20 feet easily, and 40 feet
with patience. if the home sits above grade drill some holes, leave
dug area open and see if radon levels drop.

radon is heavier than air, and should naturally migrate out the holes

so how much are the mitigation estimates?
