Owner Carol D of Brackenridge, PA was looking for a solution to reduce the road noise from the high traffic street in front of her home. Carol was also concerned about losing storage space in her knee wall attic.
Mark O. proposed insulating the attic with sound reducing TruSoft cellulose insulation and insulating the knee wall with Cotton Armor insulation batts.
Foreman Mike Y. and his team Craig C. and Zach T. air sealed and insulated the attic to R60. In the knee wall attic the team removed the 60 year old paper insulation and replaced it with Cotton Armor insulation held in place with insulweb.
The owner said she can’t believe what a difference it’s made both with the comfort of the bedroom and the sound.
Cindy from Natrona Heights called Home Environment Solutions saying his home is always cold in the winter and stays warm in the summer. We sent Russell out to preform a FREE home energy audit to see where all his air was escaping. Russ found old loose insulation, unsealed wire/pipe runs and uninsulated scuttle cover. Our insulation team removed all the old batt insulation and disposed of it. Installed Silverglo foam board on scuttle and walls. Sealed all internal and external penetrations with Zypfoam. Installed Trusoft cellulose on the attic floor.
Steven form Cranberry Township, PA saw the Gutter Shutter by Home Environment Solutions truck when he was at the Monroeville Mall. He called and explained that his gutters were clogged and pulling away from his home. The Gutter Shutter by Home Environment Solutions team showed up and removed Steven's old gutters including the metal screen inserts that failed to keep out the leaves and debris. The new Gutter Shutter system was installed with wide downspouts. Steven's home looks great and the new Gutter Shutter system is working perfectly.
From went, damp, and musty to dry, clean and smelling like a new home. Also, she now has a large useable storage area in her crawlspace.
Das was having a problem with water leaking into his basement when it would rain heavily. He called Home Environment Solutions to get help with a solution. Russ came out and immediately saw the problem. The gutter downspouts were causing the area around the foundation to become saturated.
The HES team came out and installed a LawnScape Well and Rain Chute to redirect the water away form the foundation and stop the water back up.
