Radon Testing

Has anyone tested their apt for Radon?

I know you can buy kits to it yourself, or are there companies that provide a more through test.

Co-op Elevator Repalcement Cost

Thinking of bidding on a co-op. 6 floor, 60 unit building with single elevator which we were told is being replaced shortly. Any idea what the cost for that would be? Do co-ops usually have you pay the assessment over a year or do they apply it for more? Thanks

Brownstone Elevator Installation

I am looking for some advice on installing an elevator. We will soon be having elderly grandparents living w/ us, and I feel that we need to have an elevator installed.

Who specializes in this kind of work? How much should I expect to spend? How obtrusive are such elevators?
