With the rim joists and basement walls insulated this home now has a warmer/more comfortable basement and has less summertime condensation.
Our team Insulated the exterior walls of this home and it made the home less drafty and quieter.
This homeowner in Palmer, MA had reached out to us hoping that we would be able to insulate their basement for them. They wanted to finish their basement, but first needed the basement insulated so that it would be comfortable.
We first removed the fiberglass insulation from the rim joist in the basement. (The rim joist is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house). We then replaced it with two-part expanding spray foam. This closed-cell spray foam expands to seal all gaps and cracks in the rim joist.
After that, we needed to insulate the walls. To do this, we used our Foamax™ foam insulation board. Foamax has flame retardant properties - meaning that they are able to leave it exposed while we craft the basement of their dreams!
Now, their basement is much more comfortable!
This homeowner in Ware, MA came to us with very high energy costs, going through an unbelievable amount of oil a month.
We seal along the walls and insulate with our SilverGlo foam to keep cold air from getting in. We put down matting to allow for some air flow followed by TerraBlock insulation and a vapor barrier to keep moisture and cold air from coming up through the dirt.
Heating this home will now be far cheaper thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions.
This homeowner called us out to their home to upgrade their attic insulation. This home was built in 1942, and needed an update! We also noticed some mold in the attic, which could be dangerous! We removed all of the old, nasty insulation and debris from the attic, properly bag it up, and dispose of it. Now we are able to spray our Mold-X Mold Killer in the attic on any and all areas, nooks, and crannies. This will get rid of the mold and make sure new mold spores do not start growing. Now we are able to air seal, and insulate!
We first seal up all top and end plates with foam to make sure there is no air able to escape, and so that the insulation is not trying to work all on its own. Insulation needs to be paired with proper air sealing, otherwise you are burring air leaks with just insulation! Next, we blow in our TruSoft Cellulose insulation. This fills in all cracks, gaps, and voids where air could escape through!
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this home has updated insulation, and is more energy efficient!
