Windows & Doors Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Hampden, MA called us out to their home for a Free Home Energy Evaluation to see how we could make their home more energy-efficient. They were having concerns with cold floors and drafty rooms. One thing we noticed was that the basement door to exit the home was very old, uninsulated, and inefficient. The hatch doors that cover them are completely uninsulated as well. This allows massive amounts of air to leak in and out of the home creating cold floors and drafts.

We removed the old, inefficient door. Next, we install a new insulated basement door with proper framing and weatherstripping. Now, this will stop air from leaking into or out of the home in this area.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy solutions this home is one step closer to optimum energy efficiency.

This homeowner in Wilbraham, MA called us hoping that we would be able to replace their bulkhead door. It was several decades old, and desperately needed to be replaced. It was also rusting, and fairly unattractive. 

Luckily, Fogarty's Home Services was able to help this customer. We were able to install a beautiful new bulkhead door. We first had to pour concrete, ensuring that it had a solid base of support. After the concrete was hardened and ready for the next step, we installed the bulkhead door. We caulked around the edges and installed flashing behind the door to ensure a tight fit.  Now, they have a beautiful bulkhead door!

This home owner in Leverett, MA had an issue with here bilco door leading to her basement. It was very old, rusted, and even had some holes in it. It not only was letting in more air than normal but also could be letting in insects and rodents. So the only thing to do was to replace it. After putting the new  door on, we re-concreted the space for a nice clean look. Now this home owner doesn't have to worry about that old bilco door anymore!

This homeowner from Groton, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help her. She had a window well for the window that led to her crawl space. Open metal window wells let leaves and debris collect in them. Rain gets in, and water from over flooding gutters cascades into the window wells. Weeds grow in the window wells since they have no bottom, and mud splashes up against the window glass. And let’s face it - they are ugly! Results - Constant maintenance, far less natural light to the basement, and they are ugly!

We had the perfect solution for this customer -- the SunHouse™ Basement Window Enclosure! The window enclosure is a bright color and has a bottom to reflect much more light into the crawl space. The bottom prevents weeds from growing and mud doesn’t splash against the windows. SunHouses™ have a sturdy matching clear cover to keep rain and leaves out, and it keeps the wind from blowing against the windows.
