Job Stories

Our team was inspecting a homeowner’s attic in Brick, NJ when we saw the bathrooms duct just lying on the floor. When a bathroom exhaust fan is not correctly connected moisture will ventilate into the attic. Moisture that is being vented into the attic will condense into water. This moisture build up in the attic can cause mold and dry rot your roof. We simply connected the bathroom exhaust fan to a newly insulated duct and attached the other end through the roof to the proper vented hood. This bathroom fan is now properly ventilated!

We're assessing a homeowner's partial cathedral ceiling in Eatontown, NJ, aiming to boost comfort and energy efficiency. Currently, the exposed fiberglass insulation falls short. Our plan involves installing SilverGlo rigid foam boards on the interior walls of the attic to prevent air leakage. We'll also dense pack with TruSoft cellulose insulation into the roof rafter bays, seal any remaining gaps with spray foam, and blow in TruSoft insulation into the attic. These steps promise a substantial improvement in both comfort and energy efficiency.

During a recent free home inspection in Eatontown, NJ, we found an attic that was supposed to be air-sealed but wasn't, a common issue with other contractors' shoddy work. It’s frustrating to pay for incomplete work that leads to higher energy bills and discomfort. At our company, we never cut corners. We thoroughly inspect before and after our work to ensure it’s done right. Stop settling for less—call us to get the job done correctly. We insulate, air seal, fix leaky ducts, and more to enhance both comfort and energy efficiency in homes. We Fix Uncomfortable Homes!

Our team conducts thorough inspections to identify potential energy leaks in your home, all at no cost to you. For instance, in Eatontown, NJ, we recently pinpointed a bathroom issue where the top plate is allowing conditioned air to escape into the attic. This means that the air you're paying to cool or heat is leaking through these gaps in your home. Such leaks can also foster mold growth, as moisture from showers can seep into these gaps and even reach the attic. Additionally, we found that leaky lights are contributing to this problem by allowing conditioned air to escape into the attic as well. Fortunately, we have effective solutions to rectify these issues, ensuring greater comfort and energy efficiency for homeowners.

While inspecting a homeowner’s attic in Leonardo, NJ, we discovered several uninsulated areas, which contributed to the homeowner’s discomfort. We also found that the attic was not properly air-sealed, with quarter-inch or larger gaps along the top plates (highlighted in green) allowing conditioned air to escape. This homeowner faces not only discomfort but also higher energy bills due to this energy loss. Our goal is to help homeowners lower energy costs, increase comfort, and improve indoor air quality.

During our free home inspection in Leonardo, NJ, we discovered several issues affecting both efficiency and safety. The attic had insulation deficiencies, the ducts and trunks were leaking, and the masonry chimney had a code violation—its insulation was too close, failing to maintain the required 2-inch clearance. To resolve this issue, we should relocate the supply duct away from the chimney. This ensures that the trunks are not positioned against the chimney. Additionally, we need to remove any insulation near the chimney to prevent potential hazards and ensure compliance with building codes. Once we box out the chimney to code and seal the leaks, we can properly insulate and encapsulate the ducts and trunks. These improvements will not only meet safety standards but also enhance the home's overall comfort and efficiency.

This vented crawl space in Leonardo, NJ, is allowing outside air to infiltrate the home, with exposed rim joists contributing to cold floors in the winter. During the summer, hot, humid air can enter the crawl space, creating ideal conditions for mold growth and poor indoor air quality. Damp insulation from condensation can produce a mildew smell—often a sign of hidden mold—while rising heat makes the rooms above feel stuffy and uncomfortable. These issues are common in vented crawl spaces with exposed rim joists, but we specialize in fixing them. By sealing and insulating crawl spaces properly, we help homeowners improve comfort, boost energy efficiency, and create healthier indoor environments.

During a free inspection in Leonardo, NJ, we discovered heavy condensation forming on the ductwork in the crawl space. This happens when warm, humid summer air meets cooler duct surfaces, leading to moisture buildup. Excess humidity can cause a range of problems—condensation encourages mildew and mold growth, which affects air quality and health, while leaky ducts can circulate this unhealthy air throughout the home. Over time, moisture can also corrode ducts, reduce HVAC efficiency, and even damage the home’s structure. The solution is to seal and insulate the ductwork, close off vents in vented crawl spaces, seal rim joists, and fully encapsulate the crawl space with a vapor barrier and foam boards along the interior walls. We also offer dehumidifiers to help maintain proper humidity levels and prevent moisture-related issues. These improvements help homeowners achieve better comfort, healthier indoor air, and greater energy efficiency.

In Shrewsbury, NJ, we encountered an attic entrance that had been poorly insulated, allowing conditioned air to escape and unconditioned air to seep in. After properly insulating the attic, we installed SilverGlo foam boards on the entrance door to stop air leaks and improve energy efficiency. Without this step, the homeowner would likely face higher energy bills and decreased comfort. By simply insulating the back of the door with SilverGlo foam boards and applying weather stripping, we effectively sealed the door and eliminated any leaks.

During our free home evaluation in Shrewsbury, NJ, we discovered leaking ductwork allowing conditioned air to escape into the crawl space. This issue was driving up the homeowner's energy bills. Upon inspection, we noticed the ducts had been sealed with blue painter's tape—an ineffective solution that simply doesn’t work. Additionally, the crawl space lacked proper insulation, which is crucial for effectively insulating the floors or house. Our team specializes in making homes more comfortable and energy-efficient, addressing issues like these with lasting solutions.
