Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Sandisfield, MA called us looking for new insulation in his home. When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived, he noted that the home's crawlspace was insulated on the ceiling using foam insulation board, but it was not encapsulated. The dirt crawlspace was being used for storage, and was at risk of having water leaks.

We were able to help this homeowner by re-insulating and encapsulating the crawl space. We first ensured that all of the old insulation was out. After performing other treatments such as insulating the rim joist using our two part expanding spray foam, we got to work installing our SilverGlo™ wall insulation. SilverGlo™ has graphite infused into the foam to increaase the R-value by 24% over standard foam. We then followed by laying down our dimpled drainage mat. After that, we started installing TerraBlock floor insulation, before pausing to fully install the SuperSump™ sump pump, which is a different solution we offer for crawlspaces and basements. We ensured that the TerraBlock went right around it to prevent gaps in the insulation. After that is finished, we installed our CleanSpace™ encapsulation liner. This waterproof liner also features Ultrafresh™ anti-microbial ingredients. This homeowner now has a well insulated and clean crawlspace where he can store his valuables. This crawlspace now will prevent moisture damage and mold that could have grown in the home.

With rim joist not being insulated or air sealed Fogarty's Home Services uses a two part spray foam to insulate the rim joist and steal plates. Insulating the rim joist seals all cracks and gaps and joints preventing air leaks from the outside an insulating the important area of their home.

This homeowner in Williamstown, MA called us stating that her home was losing a lot of heat. They had a stone foundation and it was not insulated. Heat moves from more to less - out of a building in winter, and into a building in summer, meaning they needed a barrier. Our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home and proposed a solution for this customer. This solution was to install open cell spray foam with an additional thermal barrier to maximize the comfort level this homeowner needed.

This open-cell spray foam was sprayed on to the stone walls with special equipment. The foam expands in place where it was sprayed, and air cannot pass through it - stopping air flow through all of the holes and cracks in the stone walls. We then added an additional spray on "intumescent" coating, which provides fire protection and is a thermal barrier. 

Now, this home is more comfortable than ever, and no longer will have heat loss problems!
