This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us to their home to help with cold floors and humidity. This home had a nasty, dirt crawlspace that was impacting those concerns!

First, we remove all of the old, nasty insulation any debris in the crawlspace. Next, we install our dimpled plastic drainage matting across the floor to create an airspace and thermal break. TerraBlock™ floor insulation is installed over the dimpled drainage mat. Now, our heavy-duty, 20 mil thick CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation liner is installed permanently across the dirt floor. It is sealed with mechanical fasteners to the walls and spiked to the floor. This will drastically reduce the cold floors and keep water and moisture out of the crawlspace, and make this home more comfortable and energy efficient!

This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help her with the home she was closing on. During the homebuying process, they found that their radon level fell between 8 and 10 pCi/L on average. This is higher than the EPA's radon action level of 4 pCi/L. She was very uncomfortable about how high the radon level was. She wanted a mitigation system installed immediately -- ideally before they moved into the home. 

 

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 new home! 

Sealing Cracks in a Basement in Thompson, CT

This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us hoping to install a radon mitigation system in her home. Her radon levels were, on average, 8-10 pCi/L. This is much higher than the EPA's radon action level of 4 pCi/L. This was also a new home, that she had just purchased -- and she wanted to ensure that this was taken care of as soon as possible. When our certified radon measurement specialist came out to evaluate the home, he noted that there were several cracks in the floor. Cracks in a basement need to be sealed if you want to mitigate radon exposure. That is because radon can come through the cracks and into the home, circumventing the radon mitigation system.

 

We were able to help this customer. In addition to the fan replacement, we sealed the cracks in her basement floor. We lined the cracks on either side with painters tape. We then ensured the area was clean. After that, we went in to fill and seal the cracks using caulk. This prevents radon from entering the basement through them -- making sure that it is vented out using the mitigation system. This homeowner's mitigation system can now keep their radon levels as low as possible!

Thompson's Leading Spray Foam Insulation Contractor

If you want to boost home comfort and lower energy bills, then spray foam insulation is the best choice. This is because spray foam insulation efficiently fills gaps and cracks, providing an air-tight barrier. It is also great to use in hard-to-reach areas because of its super-adhesive qualities. Plus, since it is waterproof, moisture cannot pass through the foam, unlike fiberglass and cellulose insulation, which makes it extremely durable and long-lasting. Also, because spray foam is sprayed as a liquid and then expands and hardens to fill voids and gaps, you don't have to worry about areas being missed. Once cured, spray foam insulation will stay in place for decades to come and will never shift or settle like fiberglass. To ensure your home has the best insulation available and your energy bills are low, switch to spray foam insulation today!

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation Include:

  • Spray foam works in all areas of the home
  • Has a greater R-value
  • Acts as an air sealant
  • Is waterproof
  • Leaves no gaps

Removing Mold from a Home in Thompson, CT

This homeowner in Thompson, CT reached out to us looking for help with her home. They had a loft they used for storage, and she wanted to get the insulation replaced. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he found that the loft had a mold problem. 

 

We had the perfect solution for this customer! In this solution, we utilize our Mold-X2 Cleaner and Botanical solutions. Mold-X2 Cleaner effectively eliminates mold and mildew stains on contact. It is non-abrasive and non-flammable, and is sprayed on effected areas. Once Mold-X2 Cleaner is applied, mold disappears instantly, leaving wood surfaces looking nearly new. Mold-X2 Botanical, a plant-based disinfectant with a pleasant, temporary scent, is sprayed or fogged on surfaces, which prevents mold from growing back. Now the loft space is ready for other solutions. Result - Mold eliminated, no odors or wood rot.

Installing a Radon Mitigation System in Thompson, CT

This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help her with her home. She originally called while closing on a home. They had tested the home for radon during the inspection process, and the radon level came out to 8-10 pCi/L on average. Once she closed on the home and had the keys, our radon measurement specialist came out to the home in order to inspect and identify her concerns. She was hoping to install a radon mitigation system immediately. 

 

We were able to help this customer. We installed a radon mitigation system in her home. We began with finding the ideal spot for the mitigation system. After that, we drilled holes -- one in the concrete slab in the basement and one where the pipe will penetrate into the wall and up to the attic. We then installed the pipe, followed by a manometer. The manometer measures the pressure of the radon gas in the mitigation system, indicating whether or not it is functioning correctly. We then installed the fan in the attic. After that, we sealed the cracks, gaps, and holes in the basement. We tested the system before we left to ensure that it was functioning. Now, this homeowner has a brand new mitigation system to keep her levels as low as possible!
