Fogarty's Home Services Before & After Photos

This homeowner in West Hartford, CT called us wanting to get his attic insulation removed and replaced. His home was very uncomfortable, especially upstairs. Our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home and noticed that the attic was improperly vented. There was also a bath fan that was not ducted out.

We had the perfect solution for this customer. We were able to replace the attic insulation with TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. We started by removing the batt insulation, putting it in large bags. 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 atitc is 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 his home! 

This homeowner in West Suffield, CT had a problem with her cold and moist basement. One of our trained building scientists noticed she didn't have a basement door suitable to stop the outside elements from coming into her home. Our team got to work ripping out the old framing. After that was done we installed new pressure treated wood so the framing would not rot. once that was done we installed the new steel insulated door, and air sealed the gaps for an air tight seal. Now the basement will stay dryer and warmer for longer.

Our Team insulated this Knee Wall space and made the home more comfortable all year round. Also allows the homeowner to spend less on fuel and energy.

This homeowner in West Suffield, CT called us wanting to make his basement warmer. He knew that it needed to be insulated, but he was not sure what was best. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he noted that the door in the basement was allowing cold air to enter the basement, as it was quite thin. 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. We replaced the old door with an insulated exterior door. This door is insulated, and has a locking knob. Now, combined with our other solutions, the basement is much warmer! 

This homeowner in West Suffield, CT called us hoping to talk about his home. He was purchasing a home, and the home inspection showed that he had a radon level above the EPA's radon action level of 4 pCi/L. Specifically, the radon level was 4.2 pCi/L. This was concerning to the homeowner, and he wanted to get a mitigation system installed as soon as possible.

We had the perfect solution for this customer! We installed a radon mitigation system in his home. We identified the specific space where the mitigation system should be installed. After that, we drilled a hole in the floor as well as a hole in the wall for the exterior penetration. We put together the pipes, starting in the floor, and built it out through the exterior penetration to the outside. We secured the pipes to the wall, and then installed the manometer onto the pipe. (A manometer measures the pressure of the radon gas in the system, indicating whether or not the system is functioning). We then went outside to continue building out the system. We installed the fan and continued building out the pipes, securing them to the outside of the home. Our technician then sealed around the holes that had been drilled for the system. Now, the homeowner has a brand new radon system for their home!
