Before & After Photos

This homeowner had an energy audit done and the company doing the audit refused to go further upon discovery of a rather invasive mold situation. The homeowner was desperate to get to the root of the problem and get it remedied immediately. The homeowner came across our ad in a local publication and gave us a call.

The solution to fixing the problems in this home was quite a process. This home has 3 crawlspace areas that all needed to be extensively treated with MoldX2™ Cleaner and Botanical to get rid of existing mold and help to prevent future mold from growing. Each Crawlspace needed to have our Crawlspace Encapsulation System installed with Drainage Matting, TerraBlock™ Floor Insulation and SilverGlo™ Insulation on the walls. In addition, we used ZypFoam™ Closed-Cell Spray Foam Insulation around the Rim Joists in the basement and crawlspaces to properly air seal and help keep moisture out. We Installed a SmartPump™ and SmartPipe™ System in the crawlspace under the living room to eliminate water. We also installed a SaniDry™ High Performance Basement Dehumidification System in Main basement area. After removing old and replacing attic insulation with TruSoft™ Cellulose , TiteShell™ Can Light Covers and air sealing in attic, this job is a Wrap!

This homeowner in Charlemont, MA called us after seeing our reminder about annual maintenance that we put in our newsletter. He had installed both a SaniDry XP and a sump pump in his home 4 years prior. While the SaniDry had been serviced twice prior (2 years after install and 3 years after install), the homeowner did not want the sump pump serviced either time. This means that the sump pump had not been cleaned and serviced at all since installation. This presents several issues. Like any mechanical device, sump pumps can fail -- and a failed pump for this homeowner would mean a flooded crawl space. Sand and sediment can build up in a sump pump, which can cause blocked lines. 

We were able to help this customer by doing maintenance on his sump pump. First, the maintenance technician inspected the crawl space the pump was located in, looking for any issues that may have occurred since we left the home. Then, the technician began testing the circuit of the outlet that the SmartSump was plugged into. He then checked to ensure the pump could run effectively. He removed the inside of the pump and cleaned it, followed by cleaning the basket. He checked the discharge lines and ensured they were not clogged. He then reassembled the pump and discharge lines. He tested the WaterWatch alarm, and then flood tested the pump. After ensuring that it was functioning, he left the home. Now, the homeowner can rest assured that their pump is working, and is clean for the first time in years! 

This room over the garage is being renovated.  The homeowner wanted to be sure his home is properly insulated.  One of the treatments our team did in this room was to insulate the kneewall.  A kneewall is the triangular space under the sloped roof and behind the wall of the room.  We installed our Foamax polyisocyanurate foam board on the exterior walls.  Foamax provides superior insulation and it is flame retardant.  The homeowner can rest assured the knee walls in this room are properly insulated. 

This Home in Canton, CT was experiencing drafts and needed a Rim Joist insulation.

This homeowner in Hamden, CT called us originally hoping that we would be able to help her with her roof and gutters. Once we had completed that work on her home, she called us back wondering if we could help her with her porch as well. Years of untreated roof issues had led to other problems in the home. With the porch, the support beams and columns were rotting. She was hoping that she would be able to replace them to make it look good as new! 

We replaced the rotting beams with pressure-treated lumber.

Now, this homeowner's porch is renewed and will be great for years to come!
