Before & After Photos

This Pittsburgh, PA customer was experiencing a cold floor and musty odors in the room directly above his cellar. Our production team used sheets of particle board, spray foam insulation, and dense packing of cellulose insulation to fix this problem. 

Karen called Home Environment solutions saying that her room above her garage stays cold in the winter. We set her up with an appointment with Russ to evaluate her home and perform a free home energy audit. Russ found loose insulation. places with no insulation and unsealed scuttle cover, wire and pipe runs.

Our insulation team went out and disposed of any old , loose insulation and prepared attic for fresh clean insulation.  They air sealed the area between two ceiling levels in the attic, installed Silverglo foamboard on vertical walls between levels and sealed all gaps with expanding air sealing foam. Air sealed and insulated scuttle cover. Installed super knee wall. Air sealed and insulated roof and super knee wall. Applied Trusoft cellulose to attic floor. 

David from Fox chapel pa called Home Environment Solutions saying that every winter the upstairs of his home stays cold. David would like his home to be insulated better to save on energy costs and to be comfortable. We sent our expert Russell out to perform a free energy audit. Russ found a poorly insulated attic wit old loose insulation and a lot of wire and pipe runs unsealed. 

We sent our insulation team out and they first removed and disposed of all the old insulation. Insulated the attic wall with Silverglo, insulated the skylights and air sealed, insulated and sealed the attic scuttle cover, sealed all pipe and wire runs with Zypfoam and used blow in cellulose on the attic floor.

Bill in Pittsburg, PA was having trouble with the gutters on his home. The screens he had on his gutters were not working. Water was overflowing and the gutters were still getting clogged. The Gutter Shutter by Home Environment Solutions Gutter Shutter team showed up and removed the old screens and installed new Gutter Guards on the home's existing gutter system. The new Gutter Guards are letting water drain correctly while keeping leaves and debris out.  

John discovered he had a mold issue in his attic.   After researching the local companies he gave Home Environment Solutions a call.  Russ met with John at his Coal Center home in PA.  Russ found evidence of microbial growth in the attic mixed in the existing insulation.  

The Home Environment Solutions Team arrived and removed the rolled batt and loose insulation from the attic.  They treated the wood with specialized chemicals for porous surfaces.  The team then air sealed the attic including the rim joist to stop drafts and heat loss and added blown in insulation.
