Our team Insulated this basement with Foamax "polyiso" insulation boards
This homeowner in Stafford Springs, CT knew he had to upgrade the insulation in his crawlspace. Even at a quick glance it is clear that the old insulation was sagging and falling off the crawlspace ceiling, which leaves space for cold air to push up into the home causing cold floors and making the home harder to heat.
We started by pulling out the old, ineffective insulation. We then installed our SilverGlo foam board with special long screws and sealed any seams. SilverGlo is not only an excellent insulator, but it's not sagging or budging any time soon.
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this homeowner no longer has to worry about the cold seeping up into the home for the foreseeable future.
This homeowner in Ware, MA came to us with very high energy costs, going through an unbelievable amount of oil a month.
We seal along the walls and insulate with our SilverGlo foam to keep cold air from getting in. We put down matting to allow for some air flow followed by TerraBlock insulation and a vapor barrier to keep moisture and cold air from coming up through the dirt.
Heating this home will now be far cheaper thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions.
This homeowner in Groton, CT called us with issues with her crawl space being very humid and moist. When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived, he noted that one of her issues was that she had a bulkhead door, but not an inner door to separate the exterior and interior of the home. This presents a few problems for the home: during the summer, warm and humid air comes into the home. In the winter, cold air leaks in, causing cold floors. This causes a lot of mold as well as higher energy bills.
Fogarty's was able to help this customer with this issue. We were able to install an Everlast™ crawl space door in the home. The Everlast™ crawl space door is 1/2" thick polyethylene, which is solid and durable. It is a custom sized door with thick weather stripping and anchors into the foundation. It will never rust, rot, or need paint. It is also a barrier between the volatile outside air and the inside of the crawlspace. It is an airtight access door that will last forever with less air leakage and condensation. This customer was so excited to not have any more mold or sagging floors!
