Before & After Photos

These Kirkwood, NY homeowners were trying to figure out how they could keep the house warmer during the winter and cooler in the summer without breaking the bank. We performed our free Home Comfort Evaluation for the homeowners and found a few things in their home that we could improve to make the home more energy efficient. The rim joists of the basement were empty, there was a crawl space that needed attention, as well as the attic. 

For the basement, we installed our 6 mil poly to the crawl space floor and sprayed the walls with 2 inches of our closed cell spray foam. We also sprayed 2 inches of closed cell spray foam into the rim joists. For the attic, there was a lot of tearing out of old paneling that covered very old rockwool insulation our crew did in order to spray foam the walls and ceiling of the attic. 4 inches of closed cell spray foam was sprayed to the roof deck. We applied our fireproof paint to the roof deck as an added measure of protection. 

This home will now be warmer, more energy efficient and these homeowners will see lower fuel and energy bills as a result of the work we've done in their home. 

This home in Kirkwood, NY was not as comfortable as it could have been.

After removing the old fiberglass, the attic was air-sealed.  The attic floor was dense-packed with 8 inches of cellulose.  We then did an open blow of 14 inches of cellulose, greatly improving the comfort and energy efficiency of the home.

The owners of this Kirkwood, NY home were concerned about insulation coming down in their crawlspace.

We removed the old fiberglass and insulated using 2 inches of closed cell spray foam on the walls and 6 mil poly sheeting on the floor.  The living area above this crawlspace is now more comfortable and will need less heating and cooling, saving on energy costs.

The owner of this Kirkwood, NY home was having trouble with ice damming.

We did an open blow of 14 inches of cellulose insulation to the floor of the attic.  With the addition of cellulose in the attic, the ice damming is no longer a problem.

The energy bills for this home in Kirkwood, NY had gone through the roof.

It turns out that the home was just poorly insulated.  As part of a larger project, we air sealed the attic followed by an open blow of 14 inches of cellulose insulation.  Thanks to the overall project the energy bills have been reduced.
