Before & After

Wall Township, NJ Home Gets R-60 Insulation, Storage Decking and Leak-Proof Hatch Cover

In Wall Township, NJ, a homeowner was struggling with attic air leakage at the pull-down stairs, insufficient insulation, and limited storage space. Our team upgraded the attic by installing 4-inch SilverGlo foam boards with a radiant barrier over the joist bays, blocking the bays, and dense-packing insulation where it was missing. We air-sealed all seams and gaps in the floor, added plywood over the SilverGlo, and installed wooden retaining walls before blowing in TruSoft cellulose insulation to achieve the optimal R-60 level. To provide a lasting solution for leaks and improve energy efficiency, we installed a David Lewis Hatch Cover over the pull-down stairs with custom wooden framing and weather stripping, creating a tight, reliable seal. With these upgrades, the attic is now fully insulated, leak-free, and provides safer, more functional storage while making the home more comfortable and energy-efficient.
