Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Pittsfield, MA called us originally for a mold removal problem. But when our Home Comfort Specialist arrived in the home, he noticed that the basement had insufficient insulation. Insufficient or nonexistent insulation can cause issues with condensation forming -- which can cause a mold issue. 

We first had to remove the insufficient insulation in the rim joist. The "rim joist" is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. 

We then were able to insulate the rim joist using our two part expanding spray foam. This fills all the cracks and gaps. Now, the home will be more comfortable! 

This homeowner called us hoping that we would be able to help him with his basement. It had a lot of issues, and one of those was that the basement was not properly insulated. The only insulation in the basement was fiberglass in the rim joist. (The rim joist is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house). Unfortunately, fiberglass insulation allows a lot of airflow through and around it. 

Luckily, we had the perfect solution for this customer. We removed the fiberglass and replaced it with two-part closed cell spray foam. This spray foam expands and fills all cracks and gaps in the rim joist and over the sill plate. Now, this home will be much more comfortable, and there are no more air leaks in the basement!

This homeowner in Pittsfield, MA called us hoping that we would be able to help her. She was having a mold problem caused by insulation that was improperly installed.

We were able to help this customer! We started by removing the batt insulation, bagging it and bringing it out. After remediating the mold with another solution, we started work on replacing the insulation. We started with air sealing, making sure that all cracks and crevices were sealed. We used Zypfoam™ one part spray foam to air seal. We then used a long hose attached to a machine that blows our TruSoft™ cellulose insulation into the attic. TruSoft™ cellulose is able to fill all gaps and odd-shaped voids, as it is blown in insulation.

Now, this homeowner has a much more comfortable home! 

These homeowners in Winsted, CT had cold air and humidity getting into their crawlspace and moving up into their home. Crawl spaces were previously considered to not be part of the conditioned space of a home and thus were vented and no effort was put into keeping outside air out. We now know that to have a comfortable and mold free home, the crawl space must be sealed. The access door to this crawlspace was loose fitting and uninsulated, causing air leaks and letting in moisture.

We removed the old doors and replaced them with our Everlast Crawl Space Doors with a few modifications to fit the larger frame. The doors are made of 1/2" polyethylene with weather stripping to keep the door airtight. We added our SilverGlo EPS foam board to the inside as well to add insulation value and keep heat in the home in the winter and out in the summer.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, there is still easy access to the crawlspace but cold air and moisture are staying out!

This home owner in Colebrook, CT called us to his home to see if we could fix his water problem. The problem was that his basement windows were old and let water leak right into the home!

To fix this we replaced the old basement window with beautiful new slider windows. Making sure that the window is installed properly and caulked correctly. 

Now that Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions have completed this install, this home owner will not have to worry about leaky basement windows ever again!
