Insulation Services Before & After Photos

This Williamsburg, VA attic has several dormers. As part of air-sealing and insulating the attic space, we needed to install PVs (the gray rectangles you see between the rafters) to ensure that no insulation fell into the soffits and so that proper ventilation can be maintained in the attic. Then we installed an R-38 of Cellulose Insulation. 

This homeowner contacted us because their "current insulation [was] over-compressed and not doing its job." This is very common in older homes, insulation settles over time and doesn't help keep your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. We removed the old ineffective insulation, air sealed the attic, and installed a fresh blanket of blown-in cellulose to help make this home more comfortable year-round. 

This detached garage in Chesterfield, VA needed insulation, so the homeowner called us to perform a free estimate and schedule the installation. We installed 14-inches TruSoft blown cellulose insulation with an R-49 value. A dam was built to contain the insulation and prevent it from falling into the storage deck.

As part of air sealing and insulating their attic, this home had several recessed lights or "can lights." These lights are a HUGE culprit of conditioned air loss in a home. To air seal these lights while protecting the insulation from the heat the housing can give off, we use rockwool can light covers that are sealed with foam. 

While it's often hard to see what dense packing between floors or exterior walls looks like, these photos show how our techs access the floor (or wall) cavities to fill them with cellulose insulation. A hole is made to fit the hose and then our technician packs the floor cavity with insulation. when complete, this makes a big difference in heat transference for the room above the garage, keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
