Before & After Photos

The owners of this condominium needed the crawl space insulated as the previous owner had removed it (see BEFORE photo). Besides getting the underfloor re-insulated, our crew installed a new 6-mil vapor barrier.

To prevent condensation from dripping off the ceiling onto the items stored in this Winston carport, spray foam was applied to the ceiling.

This homeowner knew there were issues in their Lincoln City, OR home’s crawl space as their floors were not comfortable.  Our Energy Consultant investigated and found that the insulation was falling down! (see Before photo) It looked like animals had been under there—they do like to rip down fiberglass and use it as nesting material. The homeowner chose to have the underside of the floor spray foamed with closed-cell spray foam (see After photo).  This will help make the floors warmer in the house and also not give critters any nesting material.

This homeowner called Josh Lowe’s Dr. Energy Saver to investigate the attic as the home was not comfortable in winter or summer.

Our crew removes all the old pink fiberglass insulation for two reasons:

1) If you add insulation on top of the old stuff, it just gives critters a nice warm blanket on top of them—they will still live in your attic.

2) Without removing the old insulation, you cannot get at the areas that need to be sealed up before new insulation is blown on top. An amazing number of houses are leaky; air they were paying to heat or cool was just leaking out into the attic because of the stack effect.

Our insulation crew then blew in TruSoft™ cellulose insulation that is treated with borate to deter critters from nesting in it.

After finding us online, this owner of a home near Otis, OR called about spray foaming exterior walls as they were at a point in this project where the interior side was open.

Our crew prepared the area and then applied spray foam up to 4 inches thick to the interior walls. It is now ready for drywall.
