Job Stories

In Avon By The Sea, NJ, a homeowner experienced cold floors and uncomfortable rooms. During our Free Home Evaluation, we discovered that the basement rim joists lacked insulation, and there were significant gaps around pipes and wires, resulting in substantial air leaks. By applying spray foam to seal these gaps and insulating the rim joists, we can effectively prevent outside air from infiltrating the home, thereby eliminating cold floors and discomfort. Count on us to transform your home into a comfortable oasis!

During an inspection of a home in Avon-by-the-Sea, NJ, we discovered exterior vents indicating a vented crawl space. Inside, we found these vents were unsealed, allowing hot, cold, and humid outside air to enter the space—conditions that can lead to discomfort, increased energy costs, and even mold growth that affects indoor air quality. To address this, we can seal the vents to stop air leakage, and then insulate the crawl space by sealing the rim joists, installing foam board along the foundation walls, and placing a vapor barrier or liner on the floor. These upgrades will create a more comfortable living environment, improve air quality, and help reduce energy bills.

We’re looking at a large vented crawl space near the entrance of a home in Avon by the Sea, NJ, where the exposed rim joists are causing cold floors and drafts in the rooms above. The vented crawl space and entrance also bring in moisture and humidity, which can lead to mold and other issues. By spray foaming the rim joists, sealing the vents, better sealing the entrance, and adding foam board to the walls, we can make the home tighter, reduce drafts, and keep the floors and rooms above warmer and more comfortable—all while improving energy efficiency.

During a free home evaluation in Avon-by-the-Sea, NJ, we found the crawl space poorly insulated and the ducts leaking. These leaks can pull in dirt, moisture, and other contaminants, lowering indoor air quality and creating conditions for mold or mildew. Our team can seal the ducts, add proper insulation, and install a vapor barrier to make the crawl space cleaner and healthier. Proper insulation and duct sealing not only improve comfort but also help your HVAC system run efficiently, lower energy bills, and keep your home safer and more comfortable all year long.

Upon inspection of the homeowner’s attic in Bradley Beach, NJ, it's clear that the insulation is insufficient. The presence of dirt buildup in the fiberglass insulation around the can lights suggests inadequate air sealing, leading to the escape of conditioned air into the attic. Moreover, visible gaps in the attic insulation worsen the problem. To address these issues, we propose installing TiteShell covers over the can lights and sealing them with ZypFoam. Additionally, we will seal the remainder of the attic floor and bolster insulation with TruSoft cellulose to improve both comfort and energy efficiency.

Our team discovered a small kneewall causing discomfort for a homeowner in Bradley Beach, NJ. Hot and cold air passing through the soffits into the kneewall led to cold floors, drafts, and stuffiness, varying by season. We proposed solutions to address this issue and, after installing SilverGlo foam boards and sealing the seams, the homeowner now enjoys a more comfortable, energy-efficient room.

We were called to a condo in Bradley Beach, NJ, where the association or property manager alerted us to frozen pipes in the overhang or soffit area.

A small attic in Bradley Beach, NJ was not properly air sealed or insulated, and although the storage space is limited, it's not a suitable environment for storing belongings. The poor attic conditions contribute to an uncomfortable home, too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter, and can cause damage to anything stored there. Our expert team can air seal and insulate the attic, turning it into a more stable and usable space while improving overall home comfort, energy efficiency, and indoor environment.

A homeowner in Bradley Beach, NJ, was dealing with cold floors and unwanted drafts. During our inspection, we found air and cold temperatures coming through the crawl space.

The result is a cleaner, more conditioned crawl space that can help improve comfort throughout the home.

This homeowner in Allenhurst, NJ, owns a stunning early 1900s home. During our attic inspection, we observed inadequate insulation and a lack of proper air sealing—a common issue in both older and newer homes. Despite the seemingly good condition of the ductwork, if there's insufficient air sealing or insulation, conditioned air can escape into the attic, leading to increased energy expenses and decreased comfort. By utilizing ZypFoam sealant for air sealing and adding TruSoft cellulose insulation to achieve the recommended R-Value of R-60, we can significantly enhance the comfort and energy efficiency of this home.
