A homeowner in Avon By The Sea, NJ had an unfinished basement. At first we were called by the owner because their house had uncomfortable rooms. That was a separate issue involving a poorly insulated attic. Our team solved that issue but our customer was also expressing cold floors and a cold basement.
After inspecting the attic we inspected the owner’s basement. The customer requested us to come back and insulate the basement sometime in the near future. Once our customer was ready to work on the basement we came back and did our magic.
Our team came back to properly insulate the basement using our Basement to Beautiful Insulation Panels. We first spray foamed the rim joists and then fastened the Basement to Beautiful Insulation Panels to the concrete walls. Once the basement is properly insulated the owner can now turned their basement into a play room for their kids. Remember we will insulate the basement but, the customer has to now complete the basement on their own with sheetrock or drywall.
The before picture is the basement in the working stages of installing the Basement to Beautiful Insulation Panels. The After picture is the basement completely finished; the customer turned their basement into this beautiful play room for the kids.
This very small attic in Bradley Beach, NJ has unfortunately been neglected, lacking proper insulation and air sealing. The attic insulation is practically non-existent, leaving the homeowner uncomfortably hot in summers and cold in winters. First things first, we'll start by air sealing the attic using ZypFoam sealant. Once the attic is properly sealed, we'll proceed to install baffle vents to ensure proper ventilation. Finally, we'll construct wooden retaining walls to contain the TruSoft cellulose insulation that we'll blow in to achieve an R-60 rating. With these improvements, the homeowner will enjoy a well-insulated and properly air-sealed attic, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency throughout their home.
This homeowner in Allenhurst, NJ had an attic that was leaking air creating hot rooms in the summer and cold rooms in the winter. We accessed the attic and found fiberglass insulation that was blown-in. Blown-in fiberglass insulation is very porous especially when it is open and exposed. After pulling up the fiberglass insulation we found the attic was not air sealed.
Our team came in and removed the old blown-in fiberglass insulation and began to air seal the attic with orange ZypFoam sealant. We also fixed the ventilation baffles as some were clogged and falling off. Once air sealed and properly ventilated we blew-in TruSoft cellulose insulation. This homeowner now has a properly insulated attic and a more comfortable and energy efficient home.
These before pictures show a combustion appliance chimney flue completely disconnected in Highlands, NJ. We have dangerous gases venting into the attic and living space below! Also we can see charred disintegrated sheetrock from above and below.
This is a major health, safety and fire issue!!
Luckily our expert crew discovered this issue during a full home air sealing and insulation project. The crew repaired the flue, restoring the proper venting of combustion gases.
These after pictures show the completed repair from below and above.
In Highlands, NJ, many crawl spaces, like this one, need our expertise. Poor insulation causes cold floors in winter and drafty rooms, while in summer, hot, humid air enters through the stack effect, leading to mold, dry rot, and other problems. We specialize in insulating neglected crawl spaces to ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency. Our solutions include installing SilverGlo foam boards on walls, spray foaming exposed rim joists, and encapsulating dirt floors with CleanSpace liner. These measures greatly enhance homeowner comfort and efficiency.
