Before & After Photos

This homeowner in West Hatfield, MA reached out to us looking for help with her basement. She wanted to have her insulation checked, and she had radon mitigation concerns. 

We had the perfect solution for this customer! We utilized two-part expanding spray foam. We insulated the rim joist (the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the home). We spray this foam in the rim joist and over the sill plate. Insulating the rim joist in this way seals all air leaks -- filling in the cracks and gaps that are present there. This prevents outside air from getting into the home. The homeowner is excited to be more comfortable in her home! 

This homeowner in Northampton, MA reached out to us because she was interested in crawl space insulation. She had a crawl space that she wanted reinsulated due to cold floors and musty odors coming from the crawl space.

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, SilverGlo™ foam insulation board is installed across the bottom of the floor joists with special long screws and 3” washers, SilverGlo™ is expanded polystyrene foam with graphite infused into the foam, which bumps up the insulation (“R”) value by 24% over standard EPS foam. Further, SilverGlo™ has a radiant barrier to reflect heat, so the insulation isn’t doing all the work by itself. All seams are sealed. Result - Much warmer floors, less drafts and more comfortable rooms, quieter home, lower fuel and electric bills.

This homeowner in Suffield, CT reached out to us because he was concerned about his attic insulation. When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived to the home, the homeowner asked him to take a look at the basement as well. The homeowner was concerned about his home comfort as well as a rodent issue he had. In the basement, the homeowner had a wooden door that led to the outside. It was leaking air from outside into the home, which was causing some comfort issues.

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, we installed an insulated exterior door. The proper framing is installed, followed by a new door with a locking knob. Result - warmer basement and floors over the basement, drier basement in summer, lower fuel and electric costs, less drafts, house easier to heat, more security.

This homeowner in Holyoke, MA approached us while we were at her neighbor's home. She had recognized our company from television commercials, and knew we would be able to help her. She was looking for help with her finished basement, which she described as very dark and musty. Once our Home Comfort Specialist was finished meeting with her neighbor, he went to this customer's home to evaluate it. The homeowner elaborated on the issues she had been experiencing. She stated that she had owned the home for over 50 years, and had been looking to get her basement fixed for most of that time. She said she had been meaning to call us for a long time. She wanted to take her basement from dark, musty, and humid to bright, clean, and dry. She also wanted to make it more comfortable.

We were able to help this customer. We began with tearing out the finished basement. We found that the walls were insulated with inefficient fiberglass batts that were damaged by the humidity. Once everything was removed from the basement, we began to utilize our solutions to prevent this issue from reoccurring. Our goal was to help the homeowner feel more comfortable in her home. For insulation, we utilized our Foamax polyisocyanurate board alongside two-part spray foam to insulate the basement. The Foamax polyiso board was able to fasten directly over the existing walls. Now, this homeowner is happy to have her home cleaner, brighter, and much more comfortable! 

This homeowner in West Springfield, MA reached out to us hoping to talk about her home. She was living in a mobile home, and was having some comfort issues, as it was the late fall. During her initial evaluation, she stated that her insulation under her home was damaged due to a leak. She wanted it replaced due to the comfort issues she was experiencing. 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, SilverGlo™ foam insulation board is installed across the bottom of the floor joists with special long screws and 3” washers, SilverGlo™ is expanded polystyrene foam with graphite infused into the foam, which bumps up the insulation (“R”) value by 24% over standard EPS foam. Further, SilverGlo™ has a radiant barrier to reflect heat, so the insulation isn’t doing all the work by itself. All seams are sealed. If necessary a skirt board can be installed around the perimeter of the insulation so the edge is not visible. The skirt board may require painting after we are complete. Result - Much warmer floors, less drafts and more comfortable rooms, quieter home, lower fuel and electric bills.
