Before & After Photos

This home in Upper Marlboro, MD was looking for suggestions on how to make their attic more energy efficent and help save on their electric bill and be more comfortable in the summer and winter.   After completion of a Home Energy Audit our Home Comfort Specialist recommended installing brand new fiberglass insulation to the proper R-value and then adding Closed Cell Spray Foam to the walls to ensure proper air sealing and insulation.  These additions drastically lowered the homeowners bills and they could feel the temperature difference immediately!

Our clients in Upper Marlboro had an attic space that wasn't properly insulated. We air sealed the attic and then added the correct amount of insulation. As a result, these homeowners will have significantly lower energy costs and a more comfortable home.

This homeowner was suffering from cold drafts in their house and called us to find the source of the issue. Our Home Comfort Specialist determined that the attic wasn't properly insulated, which was the source of the uncomfortable temperatures. Our Production Team removed the old insulation and installed new Cellulose Insulation. This will keep the home at a more comfortable temperature and save money on their energy bills.

Mr. Homeowner living in Upper Marlboro, Maryland had a real problem keeping his home at one temperature. His room with the thermostat was okay, but every other room was either too hot or too cold. He had heard about our company before, and wanted to hear our diagnosis. 

We gave Mr. Homeowner a home energy audit to reveal the causes behind his discomfort. We labeled the attic as a problem area. There was essentially no air sealing, the batt insulation that was up there wasn't nearly enough and it was installed upside down (the paper side should be on the bottom). We fixed those problems and then blew in our cellulose insulation. Now every room can stay the same, comfortable temperature. 

The insulation in this client's attic is in pretty rough condition. All of those "dirty" spots are signs that the insulation isn't working right. What we find to be the case a lot of times (and is true here also) is that there is no air sealing underneath the insulation. Without air sealing, air is free to filter in and out of the attic area (often causing discomfort and health concerns). We took out the old insulation (since it was too far deteriorated), air sealed the attic floors, and blew in cellulose insulation. This will create a much more energy efficiency home and make a major difference for the homeowner.
