This homeowner in Feeding Hills, MA reached out to us because she was having home comfort issues. In the winter, her heater was running constantly -- and in the summer, she could not sleep without multiple fans and the air conditioning going 24/7! She wanted to have her home evaluated, and her insulation removed and replaced.
We were able to help this customer! We were able to replace the attic insulation with TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. We started by removing the old blown-in insulation using 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 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 very excited, and is already much more comfortable in her home!
This homeowner in Feeding Hills, MA called us hoping to get his attic insulation checked and fixed. He was dealing with allergies and a constantly running air conditioner. He wanted to get it done as soon as possible, as he was concerned about his energy bills. Additionally, the only entrance to his attic was through his gable vents, which presented a challenge for most people. However, we were able to help him easily!
We had the perfect solution for this customer! We removed the old, broken gable vent. We removed the insulation from his attic and re-insulated it. Once we were done, we began the process of replacing the gable vent. We installed the new gable vent into the side of the home. Then, we framed it, ensuring that it had a sleek and attractive appearance. Now, their gable vent looks 10 times better, and their attic is perfectly insulated, leading to lower energy bills for years to come!

This homeowner in Windsor, CT wanted to reduce drafts and humidity in the basement. Rim joists are often uninsulated which allows cold dry air to enter the home in the winter and warm humid air to enter in the summer. Our team used our closed-cell polyurethane spray foam insulation to air seal and insulate the rim joist. Our spray foam has an insulation value of R7 per inch. The foam expands ensuring all cracks and gaps are sealed to prevent outside air from entering. The homeowner will have warmer floors, their home will be more comfortable and easier to heat and cool.
