Before & After Photos

This homeowner had an unfinished basement that he was looking to work on. Before he started anything, he wanted to make sure that his walls were insulated right (you definitely don't want to wait until you've dry walled to realize your basement is too cold). Complete Home Solutions came out to check it out. As you can see, there was insulation in the walls, but there was no air sealing. When you have just insulation you're not actually stopping the cold air from coming in. To do this we needed to take out that BATT insulation and apply our closed cell spray foam (which air seals and insulates at the same time).  Now this basement is ready to rock n' roll for whatever plans the homeowner has for it. 

This home in Accokeek, Maryland was suffering from extremely drafty rooms. During the winter months, this meant cold rooms and high utility bills. The homeowner didn't know what they could do to fix this problem... but Complete Home Solutions did.

We started out by giving a Home Energy Audit. With this, we could pin point where the problem areas in the house were. The attic was our biggest concern. There was little to no insulation, and the insulation that was there was ratty and torn apart (essentially useless). So, we tore out any of the old insulation, air sealed any of the ductwork that was up there, and installed TruSoft Cellulose insulation. It's amazing how almost immediately the homeowner could feel the difference. You may not ever go up to your attic, but trust us, what's up there matters!

This homeowner from Mount Rainier, Maryland noticed that his master bedroom was always freezing cold, especially the floors. He needed advice on how to change this. So, he called up Complete Home Solutions.

After an energy audit, we determined that there was a crawl space beneath the master bedroom that was causing it to be so cold. The walls had some insulation in them, but it was not actually blocking any air movement. In order to do that, we needed to install spray foam over the walls. Doing this has created a much more comfortable and energy efficient home!

This client had heard a radio ad discussing the great benefits that an energy efficient home can have for its homeowner. Thinking about how his home was probably under-performing (based on his utility bills and lack of insulation in his attic), he did a little research. He found Complete Home Solutions and, after viewing our extensive experience, chose us as to make his home more efficient. 

After performing a home energy audit, our home comfort specialist found quite a few opportunities for improvement (the attic being the main one). This home had a flue pipe that went through the attic; it wasn't properly sealed and was, therefore, causing a lot of air leakage (decreasing the efficiency of the home). We sealed the pipe and constructed a non-flammable barrier around it to prevent insulation contact. We also air sealed along all the rim and band joists in the attic and replaced the old, gunky insulation with fresh cellulose. Now this home is efficient and comfortable for the homeowner too! 

This home in Ft. Washingtion, MD was experiencing cold drafts and high energy bills this winter. There was not enough insulation in their Attic!

We performed a home energy audit to identify all the areas in the home that were leaking air. We air sealed all of the cracks and holes to prevent air leakage in the future. We also added more blown-in cellulose insulation in the attic to provide a warmer, more comfortable, and less drafty home.
