Making an Office Warmer in Simsbury, CT

This home owner in Simsbury, CT called us to his home to see what we could do to make his home office warmer. When we got to the home our building science specialist saw that there was a crawlspace with a bilco door attached to it! This was making the office very cold.

To fix this we encapsulated the crawl space. After we did that we had to finish this space off by installing a basement door. To do this we first build the frame of the door. Then we custom cut the door to the correct size for the opening we had. Then we properly installed the door, air sealed any gaps, and properly weatherstripped the door. 

Once Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions completed this treatment, this home owner will now be able to work in comfort in his home!

Making a Home More Comfortable in Simsbury, CT

This homeowner in Simsbury, CT called us out to their home to replace old inefficient fiberglass insulation. Especially without air sealing, Fiberglass is not an efficient form of insulation. The attic also had some mold in it, which can be very unhealthy.

We removed all of the old, fiberglass insulation and properly disposed of the materials.  Next, we fog our Mold-X treatment throughout the attic to neutralize any nooks and crannies that can be affected. Now we are ready for the next step. We seal up all top plates and any areas where air can escape from the home into the attic and be lost with foam. Now we are ready to blow our Truoft Cellulose insulation into the attic. Cellulose will fill in any odd-shaped voids and gaps.

Now, thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this home is more energy efficient!

Crawl Space Below 3-Season Porch Insulated in Simsbury, CT

This homeowner in Simsbury, CT contacted Fogarty's Home Services to help make the 3-Season porch attached to her home a room she could enjoy all year-round. We started below the porch in the crawl space that is exposed to the outside elements. We air-sealed and insulated the rim joist using Closed Cell Spray Foam. Then, we air-sealed and insulated the floors that were open to the outside using SilverGlo™ foam board. 

 

Fogarty's Home Services made this room even more comfortable by blocking the soffit vent. We then removed the gutter and fascia board, and dense packed each open bay with TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. 

 

Thanks to Fogarty's Home Services, this happy customer will be able to enjoy her porch all year long, while keeping her energy costs at a minimum.
