Re: Radon Gas & Granite Countertops

Amazing thing is my wife and I had lunch today with friends that just got granite counters put in. She brought up the subject about radon that someone mentioned to them about it.
I just told her in a joking way you are gonna die. I didn't say it would be from that though. I was telling the truth someday we all are.

Re: Radon Gas & Granite Countertops

I just had 2 slabs of Brazilian Bordeaux installed and found out AFTER THE FACT that there might be an issue with radon/radiation. It is disconcerting. Please keep me informed of your results. I am looking further into this also. Thank you.

I wouldn't sweat it.

Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're probably right.

A new topic is good, feel free to start one.And here are the reasons for that (post #3) Posting to old topics

And

PS
When I first joined, I did the same thing several times and needed a gentle reminder as well.
