Before & After Photos

This Matthews, NC homeowner reached out looking for ways to improve their home's energy efficiency through an attic insulation upgrade. They wanted to better understand their insulation options and determine which improvements would provide the most long-term benefits for their home. 

Carter, one of our top specialists, evaluated the attic to identify opportunities for improving insulation performance and reducing energy loss. Our crew completed a full attic upgrade, carefully air sealing gaps and penetrations to reduce air leakage before installing new blown-in insulation. With a focus on home comfort and efficiency, we helped Mr. R explore attic insulation solutions designed to create a more effective thermal barrier and support consistent indoor temperatures year round. 

This Matthews, NC homeowner reached out to Home Shield Insulation after discovering rodent contamination in their old attic insulation. With about 1,070 square feet of attic space affected, they were looking for an affordable solution to remove the damaged insulation and restore their attic. After receiving a costly estimate somewhere else, they wanted to explore their options for properly addressing the issue without unnecessary expenses. 

The project focused on removing the contaminated attic insulation and preparing the space for new blown-in insulation. Addressing rodent activity and ensuring proper cleanup and sanitation are important steps before installing replacement insulation. This attic insulation before and after highlights the importance of maintaining a clean, properly insulated attic to support long-term home comfort and energy efficiency. 

Mrs. B, a Concord, NC homeowner, was looking for ways to improve their home's efficiency and comfort, initially considering an attic insulation top-off rather than a complete replacement. They were also interested in insulating the attic access door, an area where heat transfer and air leakage can often occur. After Carter, one of our top specialists, inspected the attic, our team completed an attic insulation upgrade to strengthen the home's thermal barrier and help reduce unwanted heat transfer. By addressing the attic's insulation needs, this project supports a more regulated temperature inside and has optimized the energy efficiency throughout her home.

A properly insulated attic starts with more than just adding insulation. For this High Point, NC home, our team focused on improving the attic floor by sealing gaps, and penetrations that allow conditioned air to escape into the attic. Once the air sealing was completed, we installed blown-in insulation to provide consistent coverage across the attic and living areas below. By addressing both air leakage and insulation coverage, this system helps the home maintain more consistent temperatures while also reducing any unnecessary strain on the HVAC system. 

For this High Point, NC project, Mr. C was experiencing high humidity upstairs and had already consulted with several HVAC companies without finding a clear explanation. During our holistic inspection performed by our lead specialist, Carter, he evaluated the attic and identified opportunities to improve the Home's thermal envelope, including the knee wall. Our team installed rigid foam board insulation and sealed the edges with spray foam to create a continuous air and thermal barrier between the attic and conditioned living space. This helps reduce any unwanted heat transfer and air leakage, supporting better temperature consistency, indoor comfort, and energy efficiency.
