Before & After Photos

These homeowners in Stockbridge, MA were having a serious problem with their crawlspace! They have pipes running through the crawlspace and needed to have an industrial heater down there to keep the pipes from freezing in the winter. A dehumidifier was needed constantly as the crawlspace was very damp. They were also hoping to get easier access to the crawlspace, which you can learn more about here!

We first removed fiberglass insulation that had been secured to the ceiling with a sort of chicken wire that was not helping the situation. After clearing everything up, we insulated the walls with our SilverGlo insulation foam board. We then put down a plastic matting, floor insulation, and finally a vapor barrier on the floor of the crawlspace, sealed securely with fasteners and special tape.

This homeowner in Thomaston, CT reached out to us looking to insulate his home. He knew that we had just been out to his mother's home and was hoping to get an evaluation for the same work she was getting done. He had bad drafts and his home was very cold. He was looking to insulate the basement first before the attic. In a basement, the “rim joist” is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. The joints and gaps between all the framing members allow for a lot of air leakage into the house. The rim joist is seldom insulated and never air sealed. Basement ceiling insulation, especially fiberglass batts, doesn’t stop the flow of cold air into the home. Results - cold floors, drafty, uncomfortable rooms, cold basement/lower level, higher heating and cooling bills and more condensation in the basement or crawl space in the summer.

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, we spray foam the rim joist in the basement in order to seal and insulate it. Two part expanding spray foam is installed on the rim joist and over the sill plate to seal all air leaks from the outside and insulate this important area of the home. Our spray foam has a high insulation value per inch of R7, and because it expands, it seals all cracks and gaps and joints where air from the outside enters the home. Results - warmer floors, less drafts, more comfortable rooms, the house is easier to heat and costs less to heat, less summertime condensation on cold basement surfaces.

This homeowner in Northfield, CT reached out to us online hoping to talk to us regarding basement ceiling insulation for her raised ranch. She had a home gym in the basement and it was much too cold for her in the winter months. Our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home and noted that there was fiberglass insulation in the rim joist that simply needed to be replaced with spray foam.

A business owner from Lenox, Ma called us to soundproof interior walls at his bed and breakfast. His customers were complaining about noise between rooms. We sent out our building science specialist to evaluate the situation. The solution was to pack the walls with our Trusoft Cellulose product. It's a great insulator and one of the best soundproofing products on the market. In this example, we drilled through the attic to get to the inside walls and simply dense packed them. Then, we plugged the holes up to ensure total soundproofing.

The business owner is completely satisfied with the work and has not received another complaint about the noise.

We met this homeowner in Lenox, MA at the Lenox Apple Squeeze where they told us about the musty smell in their basement. One of the culprits was this old door at the bottom of the hatch steps letting in moisture.

We removed the old door and installed proper framing. We then hung the new energy efficient door with weather stripping and sealed any spots where air could leak in.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, the inside of the home is properly sealed off from the outside, keeping out moisture and harsh winter and summer temperatures.
