Insulating a Basement in Andover, CT

This homeowner in Andover, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help her with her home. We had previously insulated her attic, and she had seen notable improvements. However, she still wanted to make sure that her basement was insulated. 

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 she is much more comfortable in her home!
