This homeowner in Windsor Locks, CT called us hoping that we would be able to replace her bulkhead door. The bulkhead door was rusting and rotting, and they were interested in getting it replaced. 

Luckily, Fogarty's Home Services was able to help this homeowner. We were able to install a beautiful new bulkhead door that was the correct size for the pre-existing concrete. We caulked around the edges and installed flashing behind the door to ensure a tight fit.  Combining this with our other solutions ensures that this homeowner will have a safe, warm, and dry basement for years to come! 

This Homeowner in Windsor Locks, CT was putting away storage during the holidays and realized that the attic was not properly insulated. They were running ducts through the attic which is vented. The ducts were being exposed to extreme temperatures making it tougher to heat and cool the home. They also had a mold issue, which can be very dangerous!

The old, fiberglass insulation in their attic was ineffective and needed to be removed completely. We removed the insulation and the attic was vacuumed. Then, we spray our Mold-X2 to to kill and stop all mold spores from growing! Now, we had a clean work space, to start installing the foam insulation board. We got to work installing our SilverGlo graphite infused foam insulation board, across the roof rafter and Gable end. The foil on the foam board reflects heat out in summer, and keeps the warm air in during winter. The roof is still vented, and stays cold in winter to prevent ice damming. Now the attic is a conditioned space, and the ducts don't have to work so hard because the environment is at a maintained temperature. Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners will have a more comfortable home, lower energy bills and a storage space in the attic!

This homeowner in Rocky Hill, CT called us hoping we would be able to help her with her attic. Her attic had a moisture problem that became a mold problem. Additionally, there were home comfort issues, and they were using the attic for storage. They had a large amount of air leaks that were contributing to the issues in the home. 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. Our solution is the the SuperAttic™ advanced conversion system. In this solution, SilverGlo™ EPS foam insulation board with graphite is installed on the underside of the roof deck. The graphite gives it superior R-value and a foil face on both sides reflects heat out in summer and back in during winter. The roof is still vented, kept cold in winter to prevent ice damming. In summer, excess heat is vented out. The attic is now part of the conditioned space in the home, and ducts in the attic are no longer in a hostile environment. The attic is clean, less dusty and suitable for storage. The homeowner can even finish their attic! 

This homeowner wanted to make his home more efficient.  Rim joists are rarely insulated and never sealed. This results in gaps between the framing which allows air to leak into the home.  Insulating the rim joist is one of the best things you can do to make your home more energy efficient.  Our team used our two part expanding spray foam to seal all the gaps.  No more air will leak into this home making it more energy efficient.
