Frank reached out because his Cape Cod–style home had cold floors, high energy bills, and an upstairs that was hard to keep comfortable. The master bathroom was especially cold, making mornings uncomfortable during the winter months.
Our team sealed and insulated the attic, upgraded the attic access with an insulated scuttle cover, and improved insulation in key areas affecting the upstairs and master bathroom. We also made improvements to attic access and knee wall areas to stop heat loss and keep warm air where it belongs.
Now, Frank’s home is noticeably more comfortable. The master bathroom stays warmer, upstairs temperatures are more consistent, and energy costs are lower; a big improvement in comfort and efficiency.
Haley and Amanda, sisters living on the same street, both reached out about high energy bills in their two-story homes. After evaluating the attic areas, we identified opportunities to strengthen insulation performance and reduce energy loss.
Our team insulated the attic adjacent wall areas and properly wrapped the skylights to improve the thermal boundary. Skylight openings are common sources of heat loss and gain, so addressing them helps stabilize temperatures and reduce energy waste. We also ensured insulation was properly contained and positioned to maintain long-term performance.
With these improvements completed, both homes now operate more efficiently. Heat loss has been reduced, insulation performance has improved, and the homes are better protected against seasonal temperature swings.
