Before & After Photos

This condo owner called us hoping that we would be able to help him. His condo association was looking into different insulation specialists due to an issue they had, and we had been referred from a friend. They were interested in replacing the insulation in their shared basement. They had fiberglass insulation, which was falling down, and they were having issues with mold in this basement as well. The fiberglass needed to be removed, the mold needed to be remediated, and then the condo association wanted new insulation put up.

We were able to insulate this basement using two separate solutions. These solutions combined gave them a very insulated condo complex, but also, they had the benefit of sound dampening as well. Our first solution was using two part spray foam in the rim joist. (The rim joist is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house.) This spray foam expands and fills all cracks and gaps in the rim joist and over the sill plate. Then, we installed RockWool batts on the ceiling of the basement. RockWool is amazing -- made of volcanic rock, it is fire resistant and sound dampening. The condo owners will no longer have an issue with hearing their neighbors in the basement, and they will be much more comfortable in their homes! 

A customer in Middletown, CT called us in order to ensure that his attic was properly insulated. Our Home Comfort Specialist identified several places in this home that needed sealing and proper insulation. Our team used ZypFoam™ in order to properly seal the attic. We then used loosely blown TruSoft™ cellulose insulation on the attic floor and densely packed it into the exterior walls of the home. This ensures a more comfortable home. This customer will now have reduced energy loss year round! 

This homeowner was referred to us by an existing customer who recently had work done and knew we were perfect for the job. The homeowner had a terrible problem with mold in her attic and asked us to send someone out to help.

Our Building Science Specialist was able to easily identify the problem as being a poorly vented out bath fan leading to the attic. The air coming from the bathroom was mostly warm air, hitting the cold air in the attic and condensing into water and resulting in mold. We completely removed all existing, moldy fiberglass insulation and then cleaned and prepped the area for treatment with our MoldX2™ Cleaner and Botanical. We then built a deck and dam and blew in  new TruSoft™ Cellulose insulation. Next we ducted the bath fan out through the gable end and outside, preventing future mold issues. We completed the job by installing a David Lewis™ attic pull-down stair hatch cover to air seal and insulate the entrance to the attic.

The team sealed off the Crawl Space Access door because of loss of energy in home. With the door shut heat will not escape in the winter and cold air wild not escape in the summer.

Used spray foam on rim joists to seal up areas where energy was being lost.
