Before & After Photos

Adam had been experiencing uncomfortable temperatures in his Davidsonville, MD home since moving in several years ago. After talking to a neighbor about the work we did in his home Adam decided to give us a call. Following an inspection from one of our Home Comfort Specialist, it was determined that the insulation level was well below current standards, and no air sealing to speak of, that this was a primary source for air leakage and uncomfortable temperatures throughout the rest of the house. On the day of the job, our Home Comfort technicians began by moving the old insulation to properly air seal the attic, which prevents conditioned air from escaping the living space of your home. We use our fire block foam the seal top plates, recessed lights, drywall seams, and attic hatches to make sure there are no spots for air to escape. The next step was to blow in new cellulose insulation to make sure the attic was properly insulated to 18inches all the way around. 

Adam noticed an immediate difference following the upgrades, and can't wait to see the drop in his energy usage, from the improvements made.

This home in Charlotte Hall, MD was suffering from cold drafty rooms and floors during the winter and having trouble with bugs and pests entering the home in the spring and summer. After completion of a Home Energy Audit our Home Comfort Specialist found that the crawl space was not propely sealed or insulated.  Cold and hot air from outside as well as bugs and spiders were entering the crawl space and then entering the home. To fix this concern, our production crew first installed drainage matting to keep water and moisture from building up in the crawl space that was also creating some mold issues. After the Drainage Mat was installed, a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier was installed to seal off the crawl space and stop outside air from entering the crawl space and rising into the house.

This homeowner in Crownsville, Maryland had an issue keeping his house warm in the winter months (a problem a lot of homeowners can relate to). Unlike most homeowners, though, he was smart enough to call Complete Home Solutions to help him fix his problem. 

We found that the crawl space was allowing for a lot of air to leak into the house. What do we do about something like this? It is very important that we air seal the crawl walls (we use a spray foam to do this) and install a new vapor barrier. In addition to these upgrades, we also installed a dehumidification system (that blue box in the after picture). The crawl space can now work effectively to keep the air in this home healthy and comfortable.  

This homeowner was unhappy with the cold air drafts that seemed to plague her house. She knew that Complete Home Solutions was the one to call to fix her problem.

We performed our home energy audit to find out what needed fixing. We found that her attic was not air sealed properly and was leaking a lot of "good air." One specific area that was allowing for a lot of air leakage was her skylight. This skylight tunnel, which penetrates through the attic, can become a serious problem if it isn't sealed right. The old insulation that was wrapped around it was deteriorating and no longer working efficiently. So, we removed that and installed our closed cell spray foam. This, along with the other air sealing and insulation upgrades we performed, creates a more comfortable and efficient home. 

This customer had a number of comfort problems with his house (all of which we were able to address). One specific issue that he faced was cold floors. We see this issue a lot, so it was relatively easy for us to diagnose. When you have a "cantilever" (which is this overhang off the side of the house), and it's not insulated, it will leak air and cause your floors to feel cold. 

CHS knew the perfect solution for this situation. We air sealed the cavities in the cantilever soffit with closed cell spray foam and polysio foam board. We then putt the BATT insulation over top of the spray foam and closed the soffit back up. The homeowner noticed an immediate difference in his floors!
