Dave Hoh's Home Comfort & Energy Experts Before & After Photos

In Marlboro, NJ this homeowner has their attic located above the garage. This attic has an interior wall that connects to an adjoining room. The adjoining room of the attic and on the first floor next to the garage (office and laundry room) gets too cold or too hot depending on the seasons. To remedy the cold or hot rooms our team fastened and sealed our SilverGlo insulation boards to the attic side of the interior walls. This helps maintain the houses thermal barrier from the attic. Next we air sealed the attic and installed soft pink barriers to contain our blown-in TruSoft cellulose insulation. By blowing in our TruSoft insulation above the office and laundry room, we are able to contain the thermal barrier of the house from the attic.

This before picture of this attic in Brick, NJ shows the homeowner’s old fiberglass insulation. We removed the old fiberglass insulation as it did next to nothing to insulate the attic. Once the old insulation was removed, we air sealed the attic and created retaining walls to create a catwalk. Finally our team of experts blew-in our TruSoft cellulose insulation. This homeowner now has a more comfortable and energy efficient home.

This homeowner in Brick, NJ had some cold drafty rooms and was concerned their attic wasn’t properly insulated or air sealed. With two little kids in the house and both kids’ rooms always cold, this homeowner had enough of the cold and called us for help.

Our team air sealed and insulated the attic. We dense packed the attic floor (under the plywood or attic decking) and created retaining walls along the catwalk to contain our blown-in TruSoft cellulose insulation. We use TruSoft insulation for both dense packing and to insulate the attic. This after picture is in the process of blowing-in our TruSoft Cellulose insulation.

A homeowner in Brick, NJ had a crawl space that was poorly insulated. Looking at the before picture we can see the exposed floors and walls. Our solution is to fasten our SilverGlo insulation panels onto the exterior walls of the crawl space. The concrete walls are porous, and by insulating the walls, we can help create a thermal barrier for the house. Also, we spray foam the rim joists to help air seal the exterior walls. This will help prevent any unwanted air from seeping into the crawl space. Next, we install our CleanSpace Encapsulation liner across the floor. Finally our team of experts installed our Sedona dehumidifier to maintain the humidity of the crawl space. This homeowner now has a properly insulated crawl space that will make this homeowner’s house more comfortable and energy efficient.

In Hazlet, NJ, a homeowner faced issues with their poorly insulated attic and inadequate air sealing. Our team took action by removing the original fiberglass insulation and implementing ZypFoam sealant to properly air seal any gaps, including around the attic's top plates and drill holes prone to air leakage. To enhance insulation, we constructed retaining walls to contain blown-in TruSoft cellulose insulation. Additionally, we dense packed TruSoft insulation underneath the small catwalk for optimal insulation. With TruSoft insulation reaching the recommended R-value of R-60, the attic is now effectively insulated, resulting in a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.
