Insulation Services Before & After Photos

Roger from Allison Park Pa called Home Environment Solutions saying that he thinks he has mold in his attic. he also said he feels the upstairs of his home is never comfortable. It is always warm in the summer and cold in the winter.  We sent one of our experts out to take a look at the growth and to perform a free home energy audit.  Russ found microbial growth in the insulation. While performing the energy audit he found old batt insulation and numerous unsealed pipe runs and wire runs that allow air to escape.

Our mold team arrived, built a containment barrier to prevent contaminating the rest of the home . They removed all old insulation batts and discarded. Air Scubber in attic and used surface and substrate cleaner for removal of organic contamination where needed.

The insulation team air sealed and insulated the scuttle cover with SilverGlo, airsealed all penetrations interior and exterior with Zypfoam and applied Trusoft cellulose to the attic floor.

Owner Carol D of Brackenridge, PA was looking for a solution to reduce the road noise from the high traffic street in front of her home.  Carol was also concerned about losing storage space in her knee wall attic.

Mark O. proposed insulating the attic with sound reducing TruSoft cellulose insulation and insulating the knee wall with Cotton Armor insulation batts.

Foreman Mike Y. and his team Craig C. and Zach T. air sealed and insulated the attic to R60.  In the knee wall attic the team removed the 60 year old paper insulation and replaced it with Cotton Armor insulation held in place with insulweb.

The owner said she can’t believe what a difference it’s made both with the comfort of the bedroom and the sound.
