Fogarty's Home Services Before & After Photos

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! 

This home owner in Bloomfield, CT had a humidity problem in there bathroom due to not having a bathroom fan. By not having a fan, you are letting all that humidity stay in the bathroom with no where for it to go. This eventually will cause mold to grow on the Sheetrock walls and mold is not something you want in your home. To fix this problem, our team installed a high efficiency bath fan. After we installed the fan, we have to duct the vent out the home by running the vent to the Gable side of the home. We then attach it to a proper vent so the humid air can escape. Now the homeowners will not have any more mold in their bathroom!

This homeowner in Bloomfield, CT  called us to and check out her basement. She was getting a lot of water in through her basement window. To fix this, we decided on replacing the window and installing our SunHouse Basement Window Encloser. To do this, we first had to rip out the old metal framed window well. We had to dig out the earth in front of the window. Next, we lay down stone in the hole we dug to help the water disperse. Then, we put in our SunHouse window well and the cover. We caulk and screw everything in place, this homeowner will not have to worry about water coming through her window again!
