❄️ Cold Floors, Drafty Rooms, Uneven Temperatures? Winter Comfort Starts Here!

❄️ Cold Floors, Drafty Rooms, Uneven Temperatures? Winter Comfort Starts Here! - Image 1

When winter sets in, your home shouldn’t feel cold or drafty—you should feel comfortable. If you’re dealing with chills, drafts, rooms that never seem to warm up, or spaces that feel too warm or stuffy, something isn’t right. Many homeowners experience uneven temperatures, with a cold first floor and an overly warm second floor, and find themselves constantly adjusting the thermostat without ever feeling truly comfortable.

These comfort issues can happen in any home—new, old, or even modular. The problem is often poor insulation and air sealing. When a home isn’t properly air sealed, cold air sneaks in while warm air escapes. This can lead to cold floors, drafty rooms, and fluctuating temperatures throughout the house.

If your first-floor rooms feel chilly or the floors are cold, the problem often starts below—in the basement or crawl space. Cold air can sneak in through uninsulated rim joists and sill plates, and gaps in wall or attic insulation make it worse. Thermal imaging makes it easy to spot exactly where the gaps are hiding. Up above, warm air can escape through an unsealed attic, wasting energy and leaving your home uncomfortable. This flow of air, called the stack effect, is a major reason many homes struggle to stay cozy during winter.

The good news? These problems are fixable. By properly insulating and air sealing your home, we can reduce drafts, balance temperatures, and help your home hold onto heat. Think of it like pulling a warm sweater over your house—keeping the cold out and the comfort in.
