This customer contacted Fogarty's Home Services because the floors in her home were cold, she was finding it more difficult to keep the house warm and she had high energy bills.  Our Home Comfort Specialist identified uninsulated walls in the basement which is contributing to making the home uncomfortable.

 

 

We installed Foamax foam insulation board on the basement walls with Dr. Energy Saver’s proprietary Foam-Tite fasteners.  The customer now has a warmer, more comfortable basement, warmer floors above basement, less condensation in the summertime and lower fuel bills.

This homeowner from Worcester, MA called us about ice damming problems. They experienced costly fuel bills during the cold months of the year. After our evaluation and inspection, we found major heat loss due to inefficient insulation and air leaks.

To fix this common problem, we use our SuperPlatform treatment. First, we removed the existing insulation; remove all of the old insulation and properly dispose of the materials off site. In addition, this homeowner requested more storage space, so we accommodated and made a catwalk for easy access. We laid our 4" SilverGlo foam board across the wooded walkway. Next, we installed plywood over the foam board and secured it. Finally, we dense packed our TruSoft cellulose insulation to complete the project.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this customer is happier in their warm and comfortable home - and no longer dealing with ice damming issues!

Worcester'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 Worcester, MA
Insulating a Basement in Worcester, MA

This homeowner in Worcester, MA called us hoping that we would be able to help him with his basement. He needed new insulation, as he had a rodent problem. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home he noted that there was fiberglass insulation in the rim joist. In a basement, the “rim joist” is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. The joints and gaps between all the framing members allow for a lot of air leakage into the house. The rim joist is seldom insulated and never air sealed. Basement ceiling insulation, especially fiberglass batts, doesn’t stop the flow of cold air into the home. Results - cold floors, drafty, uncomfortable rooms, cold basement/lower level, higher heating and cooling bills and more condensation in the basement or crawl space in the summer.

 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, we spray foam the rim joist in the basement in order to seal and insulate it. Two part expanding spray foam is installed on the rim joist and over the sill plate to seal all air leaks from the outside and insulate this important area of the home. Our spray foam has a high insulation value per inch of R7, and because it expands, it seals all cracks and gaps and joints where air from the outside enters the home. Results - warmer floors, less drafts, more comfortable rooms, the house is easier to heat and costs less to heat, less summertime condensation on cold basement surfaces.

 

Replace Leaky, Inefficient Basement Windows with Everlastâ„¢ Window Inserts in Worcester, MA

Home builders paid little attention to the energy efficiency or looks of basement windows, often choosing the cheapest option available. This leaves you with single pane glass windows with metal frames that let lots of cold air leak into your home. Single pane clear glass lets heat from your home escape by conduction through the cold glass. Metal is highly thermally conductive and a poor material for a window frame. And metal rusts in the damp environment near the ground. Perhaps the worst part is that these basement windows leak air - lots of it, because the house has lower air pressure at the bottom and sucks cold outside air into your home, causing a cold basement and cold floors above. And let's face it, these windows are ugly. Results - cold basement, cold floors upstairs, drafts, higher fuel and electric bills, more condensation in the basement in the summertime, less comfortable home.  Your old windows and frames are removed. New Everlast™ basement window inserts are installed and sealed airtight. They feature 2 panes of high performance "Low E" glass, which lets visible light through, but blocks most of the heat flow with a special metallic coating on the inside of both panes of glass. The sash features a vinyl frame - the perfect material for a window in the damp environment near the ground. The vinyl looks great and will never rust, rot, or need paint. And the new efficient windows look great! Results - warmer basement, warmer floors above the basement, less drafts, less condensation in summer, lower overall home air leakage, lower fuel and electric bills. 

Attic Insulation in Worcester, MA

Problem:

Homeowner reached out to us about their home being poorly insulated. The homeowner described to us how they would blast the AC all day but it really was not changing the overall temperature of the home. Our Team got out and did an evaluation on the home to see exactly what the problem would be.

 

Solution: 

Our team discovered that it was a problem with the attic. This attic had very poor insulation. It was all torn and not in the right spots to really insulate the home. We went into the Attic and took out all the old insulation. Than our team spray foamed all the piping to ensure that no energy is lost there. Than the team used SilverGlo on the roof deck and finished off the job Dense packing the Floor of the attic with TruSoft Cellulose.

Insulating Attic Pull Down Stairs in Worcester, MA

These homeowners in Worcester, MA met us at the Worcester Home Show where they let us know that they were having issues with ice damming. Ice damming occurs when the inside conditioned space of the home is not sealed off from the attic, which is vented in order to keep the roof temperature regulated and circulate out moisture. Air that the homeowner pays to heat leaks up into the attic and subsequently heats the underside of the roof, so not only does the heating system have to work harder, but the roof gets warm enough to melt the bottom layer of snow that is touching it. This melted snow then runs down the roof and refreezes at the eaves. After enough melts and freezes here, a dam forms, making the water pool up behind it. Shingles on a roof are made so that water runs down them to the gutters, but when this pooling occurs, water gets in under the shingles and starts to leak into the home causing potentially severe water damage and mold issues.

In order to stop the ice damming, we needed to properly seal off the attic. We sealed around can lights, top plates, and electrical work, but one spot that seems a bit trickier is the pull down stairs. How do you seal something that has to be opened to access the space? We used our David Lewis Hatch cover, it is made of our graphite infused SilverGlo foam board and has a radiant barrier to help keep heat in the home in the winter and out of the home in the summer. The cover has a handle to make it easier to place and remove as you enter and exit the attic. Air leakage is stopped while maintaining ease of access to the attic.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners no longer experience ice damming and their home is safer.
