Basement Insulation Before & After Photos

This basement had a problem with flooding so we installed an open sump pump and a SaniDry Sedona. These pair up to create low relative humidity, stop mold from growing, and most importantly help in case of a flood.

This customer in Holyoke, MA called for help with water damage in his basement. When we arrived, we realized that the basement was not insulated at all.

In order to properly insulate, we needed to first remove and treat areas affected by the water damage. Our team got to work removing the damaged parts of the basement. We also removed large areas of mold with our Mold-X2 Cleaner. Afterward, we immediately treated with Mold-X2 Botanical to prevent mold from growing back. Then, our team got to work insulating the walls. We installed Foamax™ insulation board on his walls. This was an important first step in preparing for basement finishing. 

This home owner in Chicopee, MA called us out to see what we could do to make his home more energy efficient. One fo the things we did to help this home owner was insulating his rim joist with our 2-part spray foam. This will stop any air from coming in through this portion of the home. This treatment is one of the best first steps you can do to improve your homes efficiency. 

Now that Dr Energy Saver by Eco energy solutions has come in and finished this project, this home owner can expect to see a drastic difference in his comfort level and energy bills!

This homeowner in Chicopee, MA called us hoping to get more insulation due to his high energy costs. He also had family members living in the basement that he suspected was poorly insulated. When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived at the home, she noticed that the basement had no insulation in it. This explains the fact that the floors upstairs would be very warm or very cold, depending on the season. 

We were able to help this customer out by insulating his basement. We specifically insulated the rim joist. That is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. We sprayed this rim joist with two-part expanding spray foam. This seals all air leaks in the rim joist from the outside and insulates this area of the home. It seals all of the cracks, gaps, and joints where air from the outside was entering the home. 

Now, this home will be temperature controlled and safe for years to come! 

This homeowner in Marlborough, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help her with her basement. She had issues with her home, specifically, she had musty smells and cold floors. 

This basement had no insulation. Therefore, the customer was hoping for insulation in the rim joist. The rim joist is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house.

Luckily, we had the perfect solution for this customer. We insulated the basement 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!
