When a building is well insulated and air sealed, the building envelope keeps healthy air and temperatures on the inside of the home and keeps the elements out. After the work is done we retest the building to gauge the effectiveness of the installation. A flash coat of closed cell spray foam is used to seal off walls or floors to separate the interior conditioned areas from the adjacent unheated spaces. We spot treat any problem areas with spray foam gun and major chases are sealed off using reflective foil and foam.

Does your home or building contain old, dirty, or otherwise contaminated insulation? Removing attic insulation is the first step in our integrated attic-cleaning solution. Old attic insulation is often inefficient and can lead to unnecessarily high energy bills. Dirty attic insulation, on the other hand, can lead to an unhealthy home. Many of the homes we work on have issues with rodents, birds, or other pests contaminating the insulation. If either of these situations are the case, it's time to remove insulation from attic spaces to maximize the safety and energy efficiency of your house.

Spray polyurethane foam, or SPF, is one of the most effective and high performance insulation materials on the market. Closed-cell spray foam provides extremely high R-value-per-inch and is perfect for applications where space is limited. Spray foam insulation is installed with a spray foam gun. It combines two separate components at the tip of the gun, resulting in a chemical reaction that expands the material to tightly fill building cavities. There are two types of spray foam insulation: open cell spray foam and closed cell spray foam, each of which has certain benefits.
