Before & After Photos

Part of this Leesburg VA attic project included building a new service deck to allow access to the HVAC unit in the attic. This will help to keep the insulation contained and let the service technician freely walk to and from the HVAC unit.  

This home in Ashburn VA had several issues that the homeowner wanted to address, one of which was to make the upper level loft of the home more comfortable year round.  Our Home Performance Sales Pro Eric determined that this could be done by improving the insulation in the attic.  While the attic already had some blown in cellulose insulation covering the attic floor, the walls of the attic were poorly treated and were allowing cold temperatures and air to move into the space.  Eric suggested adding another 6 inches of insulation and to have Silver Glo panels installed on the walls of the attic.  The panels were then air sealed with Zyp Foam to properly protect the space from unwanted air flow.  

This Ashburn VA attic underwent a full transformation.  After our Home Performance Sales Pro performed a no cost inspection of the home, it was determined that the attic space would benefit from air sealing, blown cellulose insulation and panel insulation used on this wall that was facing the sun for most hours of the day and required additional attention to be properly insulated.  The existing wall panel insulation was insufficient and was not air sealed.  Our production team installed the SilverGlo insulation panels and used ZypFoam to seal up the cracks in between.  This helped to create the best result to help improve the comfort ii the home and reduce the energy costs related to heating and cooling the home.  

This Ashburn VA home had a need for a full attic insulation project.  The rooms in the home below the attic were uncomfortable, the attic was not air sealed and the existing insulation in the attic was not performing as needed.  Our Home Performance Sales Pro Jon recommended removal of the old insulation so that our production team could air seal the attic floor and then blow in Tru Soft cellulose insulation.  Additionally Jon added the production and building of an attic landing where the access hatch to the attic was.  This would allow for people to access the attic and stand on the platform with a barrier between the insulation.  A hatch cover was installed with a zipper seal to keep conditioned air from escaping the rooms in the living areas below the attic.   Our production team constructed this and helped to create a more comfortable home and more accessible attic for the home owners.  

This Ashburn VA home was uncomfortable to the homeowners throughout different times of year.  They called us to see if we could help find a solution, which included a full attic project made up of air sealing, can light covers, insulation and having the chimney pipe wrapped and insulated with rock wool and spray foam.
