Upgrading Fiberglass to Cellulose Insulation in Middletown Township, NJ

A homeowner in Middletown Township, NJ, lacked proper insulation, causing discomfort, sweating ducts, moisture buildup and more. The unsealed attic led to energy loss as conditioned air leaked out. We resolved these issues by removing old insulation, sealing leaks, and filling gaps with ZypFoam sealant. After air sealing the attic, we installed cellulose insulation to an R-Value of R-60. Now, the homeowner enjoys a comfortable, energy-efficient home.

Crawl Space Insulation & Encapsulation in Middletown Township, NJ

In Middletown Township, NJ, a homeowner dealt with discomfort due to a poorly insulated crawl space, resulting in cold floors and drafty rooms. To address this, our team first applied spray foam to the rim joists, effectively reducing the cold floors. Next, we added SilverGlo insulation panels to the exterior foundation walls for a protective barrier against outside temperatures. Additionally, we installed TerraBlock foam insulation on the floor, topped with a durable 20 mil thick CleanSpace Encapsulation Liner. These improvements resulted in a significantly more comfortable and energy-efficient home environment.

Blown-in Attic Insulation in Middletown Township, NJ

The homeowner in Middletown Township, NJ, faced discomfort due to inadequate attic insulation, resulting in chilly winters and sweltering summers. Upon investigation, we discovered not only insufficient insulation but also poor air sealing in the attic. To address this, we removed the ineffective fiberglass insulation and applied ZypFoam sealant for proper air sealing. Additionally, we installed wooden retaining walls to ensure the blown-in TruSoft cellulose insulation achieved an R-value of R-60. With these improvements, the attic is now adequately insulated, significantly enhancing the comfort and energy efficiency of the home.

Bathroom Fan Improperly Ventilated in Ocean Gate, NJ

Before:

When exploring the attic of this house in Ocean Gate, NJ, we found the bathroom exhaust fan improperly ventilated.

After:

After removing all the old insulation and sealing the seams in the attic with Orange ZypFoam, we properly connected a back draft damper with insulated duct work to an exterior hood.  Finally, we add our state of the art insulation True-Soft, a Cellulose material which is environmentally safe and helps insulate your house at a more proficient rate of 40% over fiberglass insulation.

By eliminating unwanted moisture into the attic, we have prevented the attic from mold and roof rot.
