Fogarty's Home Services was contacted by this homeowner as she was experiencing a high level of condensation in her attic. This was causing her ceiling to stain and she had restless nights from trying to catch all the excess moisture into a bucket. Fogarty's home Services discovered that the homeowner's attic scuttle hole was leaky and uninsulated, causing excess moisture and a LOT of air that was leaking out. All this air leaving the top of the house was being replaced with cold outside air entering at the lower levels of her home, causing drafts, cold floors, and uncomfortable rooms that are hard to heat. 

 

We weather-stripped the attic scuttle cover to stop air leakage. We then insulated the cover with a SilverGlo™ foam insulation panel. SilverGlo™ has graphite infused into the foam which bumps up the R value (insulation value) by 24% over standard EPS foam. In addition, it has a radiant barrier on top to reflect heat from a hot summer attic. This very satisfied customer is now the proud owner of a more comfortable, less drafty home.. Her rooms are easier to heat and she'll have lower fuel and electric bills.

This homeowner contacted us to make her newly purchased 1929 home more comfortable.  Our team insulated the rim joist in the basement to reduce heat loss and the infiltration of cold air.  The rim joist in most homes is seldom insulated and never air sealed.  We used our two part expanding spray foam to seal all air leaks and insulate this important area of her home.  Our spray foam has a high insulation value per inch of R7 and it expands, sealing all cracks and gaps.  

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, his home will be more comfortable year round and the homeowner will have lower energy costs.

This homeowner called Fogarty's Home Services to help make the room above her garage more comfortable. She was experiencing very hot temperatures in the summer and extreme cold temperatures in the winter. Her garage isn't heated, but the finished rooms above the garage is, so the garage ceiling needed be insulated. Fogarty's Home Services drilled holes are into the rim joist (from the outer edge of the ceiling/floor framing) from the outside Then, we inserted a very long pipe into the joist bays all the way to the other side. Lastly, we air sealed and insulated the garage ceiling with TruSoft™ insulation. This happy homeowner will now feel the results of warmer floors above the garage, more comfortable room temperatures, quieter floors in the room upstairs without a hollow sound, and lower heating and air conditioning bills.

Turners Falls's Leading Spray Foam Insulation Contractor

Spray foam insulation is the best choice for insulation if you’re looking to increase your comfort & decrease your energy bills. Spray foam insulation is truly the best option for home insulation and here are a few reasons why. Spray Foam Insulation provides an air barrier due to its ability to fill gaps and cracks. It is also great at staying in the hard to reach areas because of its super-adhesive qualities. Spray foam insulation is also waterproof, unlike fiberglass and cellulose insulation. Water will not be able to pass through the foam which makes it an extremely durable and long-lasting product. Lastly, spray foam insulation is foolproof. Spray foam is sprayed as a liquid and then expands and hardens to fill voids and gaps. There is never any chance for an area to be missed or bypassed. Once cured, spray foam insulation will stay in place for decades to come and will never shift or settle like fiberglass. To ensure your home has the best insulation available and your energy bills are low, switch to spray foam insulation today!

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation Include:

  • Spray foam works in all areas of the home
  • Has a greater R-value
  • Acts as an air sealant
  • Is waterproof
  • Leaves no gaps

Job Stories From Turners Falls, MA
Air Seal & Insulate Garage Ceiling in Turners Falls, MA

Garages are not heated, but the finished rooms above them are, so the garage ceiling must be insulated. Unfortunately, fiberglass batts leave lots of air space for air to circulate around them, eliminating their R-value. Results -  cold, drafty floors upstairs and excess noise from the garage heard upstairs. Siding can be removed or drilled. Holes are drilled into the rim joist (outer edge of the ceiling/floor framing) from the outside, a very long pipe is inserted into the joist bays all the way to the other side. Cellulose is blown in and dense packed into the floor. This not only compresses existing loose fiberglass batts and adds much insulation value, but the density stops airflow through the floor from air leaks. The homeowner may need to touch up paint the wood siding or paint over wood plugs. Results - warmer floors above, more comfortable rooms, quieter floors upstairs without that hollow sound, and lower heating and air conditioning bills.
