Insulating a Basement in Enfield, CT

This homeowner in Enfield, CT called us looking to insulate his childhood home. The home had been in the family for decades, and they were working to make it more comfortable now that he was the owner. He had almost no insulation in his basement, and he wanted to ensure that it was insulated properly for the future.

 

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 now very happy, and he is much more comfortable in his home! 

Insulating an Attic in Enfield, CT

This homeowner in Enfield, CT called us about his attic and basement insulation. He was uncomfortable in his home, and had received a reminder from the state rebate program after having an audit done.

 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. We were able to replace the attic insulation with TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. We removed the loose fiberglass insulation with a large vacuum. We then went in and air-sealed around all of the points where air leaks up from the home to the attic. We did this using our Zypfoam™ spray foam. Once the attic was air sealed, we used a long hose to blow in TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. TruSoft™ is amazing -- it does not burn, get moldy, or attract pests. The blown-in insulation fills all gaps and oddly shaped voids. The homeowner is now much more comfortable in her home!

Making a Home More Comfortable in Springfield, MA

This homeowner in Springfield, MA called us out to their home for a Full Home Energy Evaluation after watching Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions commercials on television. They were interested in a Energy Evaluation for their home because they wanted to see what they could do to make their home more comfortable. These homeowners added an addition to their home some years back, and under the floor of this addition there was fiberglass insulation. This insulation was held in place by a plastic vapor barrier. When we cut the vapor barrier down water started to pour out of it, which is a huge problem. In the before photo, you can see what this insulation looked like once we took that plastic off. Even though there is fiberglass insulation in the floor, because it sags down away from the sub floor, the same outside air gets over it rendering it useless. We know what we needed to do to help these homeowners become more comfortable in their home.

The first thing we need to do is remove all of that old, nasty insulation from the floors of this home. We remove and properly dispose of the material, vacuuming up anything that fell. Then we can move on to our next step. We install SilverGlo foam insulation board across the floor joists and hold them in place with with 3” washers and 5” screws to ensure stability. We seal all of the SilverGlo seams with one- part foam.

Now that Dr. Energy saver by Eco Energy Solutions has  increased efficiency and stopped air flow from leaking in and out of the home, these homeowners can live more comfortable in their home all year round!

Fix Cold, Drafty Floors in Springfield, MA

This Springfield, MA homeowner reached out to Fogarty's Home Services to insulate his uninsulated floors that were open to the outside underneath the home. He had cold, drafty floors because there wasn't any insulation to protect the floors from the outside air. We were able to install Expanding Spray Foam Insulation under these cold floors at the rim joists to resolve air leakage and conductive heat loss through the floor. Now our happy homeowner will feel results including much warmer floors, less drafts, more comfortable rooms, a quieter home, and lower energy bills.
