Plus Deep Penetrating Concrete Sealer for Basement Walls and Floors, Seals Concrete Against Water, Vapor and Radon Gas, (2.5 Gallons)

We bought RadonSeal Plus to help reduce radon levels in our home and ensure proper moisture levels in the concrete floor before installing LVP in our partially finished basement. We were surprised to get moisture test readings in the yellow since, as long as we've lived here, our sump pump has remained bone dry and we've had zero visible signs of water intrusion. After several months of monitoring humidity, dewpoint, etc, we concluded water vapor must be wicking up through the concrete. We decided to apply RadonSeal Plus to only the finished room first, since we need the new LVP installed in time for Christmas gatherings. RadonSeal was easy to apply, had little to no odor, and we could see it was being absorbed effectively into the concrete as it was applied. The instructions say it reaches full strength in 60 to 90 days. After 30 days we're pretty happy with the results so far. Our moisture readings have gone from yellow to green with our latest ASTM F1869 test reading 2.14. Our radon readings have gone from regular highs from 10 to 14 over the 3 months prior to the application, to now showing consistent levels between 4 to 6. This is after doing 1/3 of the basement (ONLY the finished area). After the holidays we'll seal the two unfinished areas of the basement and I'll be happy to report the final results here.

I poured it out of the 2 gal container in various areas spreading with a broom on a 43 year old cement basement floor after hand scrubbing first 2 days before. It soaked in well and the reapply 40 min later also did well. Then I took a damp flat mop another 40 min later to get up any still wet areas. No smell at all. I won't know until I finish the total basement floor and test for radon if it helps. It did give a low sheen and I can see that the surface is sealed.

Hard to review until it has been in awhile. Don’t really know if it works yet. Easy to apply and clean up.

Had two rooms downstairs that were not finished just bare concrete. Sprayed all the walls that were in contact with the Earth and sprayed the floors. We already had a radon monitor for years so we knew what the averages were. Our numbers were never high enough to trigger remediation, but it is peace of mind, knowing that they’re even lower now. This definitely brought the radon levels down in conjunction with caulking all cracks first in the floors with radon approved caulk. My recommendation is to do light coats with a pump sprayer. Don’t let the liquid pool. This is not a substitute for homes that have radon levels high enough to require remediation.

*Product review* RadonSeal Plus is a terrific product. Followed the directions, used a mask but I think it was unnecessary as no odor. You have to work the product into the concrete with a broom, wet it down as described, and it's terrific. Did my shed which was dusting horribly and now it's perfect, and the concrete floor area inside (shown in picture). Worked equally well on a new slab and a 50-year old slab. Called company once with some questions and they took the time to answer everything and even looked at my pictures! Great product, highly recommend.
