This homeowner in Richmond, MA called us hoping that we would be able to help her with her crawl space. The insulation in her crawl space was starting to fall down. Luckily, she had previously worked with us on prior projects and knew that we would be able to help her.
We were able to help this homeowner by utilizing our CleanSpace™ encapsulation system. We insulated the crawl space walls using SilverGlo™ foam insulation. For the floor, we added a dimpled drainage mat to create a thermal break. We then installed TerraBlock™ floor insulation on top of that. Then, we installed a CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation liner over that insulation. We fastened it into both the walls and floor to create a permanent solution for this crawl space. Now, this homeowner will experience less drafts and a much more comfortable home!
These homeowners in Stockbridge, MA had sagging old fiberglass insulation under their home and knew it had to go.
We removed the fiberglass, which was not providing much insulation value at all and letting cold air creep its way into the home, before getting started on the new insulation. We installed our SilverGlo graphite infused foam which has a radiant barrier to reflect heat and made sure to seal all the seams.
No more drafts in this home thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions.

These homeowners in Stockbridge, MA were having a serious problem with their crawlspace! They have pipes running through the crawlspace and needed to have an industrial heater down there to keep the pipes from freezing in the winter. A dehumidifier was needed constantly as the crawlspace was very damp. They were also hoping to get easier access to the crawlspace, which you can learn more about here!
We first removed fiberglass insulation that had been secured to the ceiling with a sort of chicken wire that was not helping the situation. After clearing everything up, we insulated the walls with our SilverGlo insulation foam board. We then put down a plastic matting, floor insulation, and finally a vapor barrier on the floor of the crawlspace, sealed securely with fasteners and special tape.
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this crawlspace is far safer for the home above as well as the utilities running through it.
This homeowner in Thomaston, CT reached out to us looking to insulate his home. He knew that we had just been out to his mother's home and was hoping to get an evaluation for the same work she was getting done. He had bad drafts and his home was very cold. He was looking to insulate the basement first before the attic. In a basement, the “rim joist” is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. The joints and gaps between all the framing members allow for a lot of air leakage into the house. The rim joist is seldom insulated and never air sealed. Basement ceiling insulation, especially fiberglass batts, doesn’t stop the flow of cold air into the home. Results - cold floors, drafty, uncomfortable rooms, cold basement/lower level, higher heating and cooling bills and more condensation in the basement or crawl space in the summer.
We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, we spray foam the rim joist in the basement in order to seal and insulate it. Two part expanding spray foam is installed on the rim joist and over the sill plate to seal all air leaks from the outside and insulate this important area of the home. Our spray foam has a high insulation value per inch of R7, and because it expands, it seals all cracks and gaps and joints where air from the outside enters the home. Results - warmer floors, less drafts, more comfortable rooms, the house is easier to heat and costs less to heat, less summertime condensation on cold basement surfaces.
