Insulation Services Before & After Photos

These customers had no place for storage in their large attic, they were forced to walk along 4" wide boards across the framing of the house. After reaching out to Dr. Energy Saver for insulation solutions they were pleased to find that they could choose to add a storage deck in their attic. The customers chose to install an attic super deck which is plywood with cellulose densely packed underneath to ensure the area is insulated. After airsealing around the chimney, plywood was cut to create a sturdy and safe storage area to walk on and also created a dam between the 16" of cellulose that was used to insulate the rest of the attic. 

This customers energy bills were cut in half by a crawlspace encapsulation and airseal and insulation in the attic. This crawlspace already had a thin plastic liner that was only blanketing the dirt where it was not torn. Installing the Clean Space Liner sealed off all the dirt and moisture from the ground protecting the bottom of your home from outside air and moisture build up. Spray foaming the outside walls ensured the aread would stay insulated and keep the floors comfortable.

In Toms River, NJ, a homeowner faced issues with an attached garage leaking outside air into the living space above, causing discomfort. During summer, the rooms above the garage became excessively hot. To remedy this, we implemented improvements to create a more comfortable environment both in the garage and upstairs. By insulating the garage ceiling with Foamax boards and sealing gaps with ZyoFoam sealant, we effectively insulated the garage. This not only enhanced the comfort of the rooms above but also provided a better area for the homeowner to set up their workbench comfortably. Additionally, we relocated ducts to the attic for better efficiency. Properly insulating the garage has significantly boosted the home's overall energy efficiency and comfort.

A homeowner in Toms River, NJ, was struggling with an AC system that couldn’t keep up or maintain comfortable indoor temperatures. We hear this often—some HVAC companies might suggest installing a larger unit when that’s not the real issue. In many cases, homeowners say they’ve just had their system recharged, yet it still runs constantly, shutting off only briefly before starting again. These problems usually point to poor insulation, leaky ductwork, or air leaks in the attic—issues we specialize in solving. For this homeowner, we air sealed the attic, sealed all duct leaks, and upgraded the insulation with R-60 cellulose. We also improved access to the unit in the small attic space. The result: a more comfortable home where the HVAC system runs efficiently, maintains steady temperatures, and helps the homeowner save on energy costs.

This customer had many of the common issues in his 2 story home. The second floor was cold in the winter, uncomfortably hot in the summer and high utility bills.

The before picture shows less than 6" of fiberglass insulation, deteriorated ductwork and insulation voids on a large kneewall.

The after pictures shows that the far kneewall was sealed and sheathed with 2" poly iso R-13 boards, the attic flat was thoroughly air sealed and approx 14" of cellulose insulation was added resulting in R-60+ insulation.  

The results are a reduction of excessive air leakage by over 60%!!, greatly improved ductwork efficiency, improved indoor air quality and optimum level of safe healthy insulation.  

It is like we pulled a heavy wool blanket over the home, keeping heat inside in the winter and out in the summer.
