Reginal called Complete Home Solutions to discuss ways to make her home more efficient and comfortable. Following a Home Energy Audit, conducted by one of our trained Home Comfort Specialist, it was determined that the condition of her homes attic insulation could be resulting gin comfort issues, and was certainly costing her money on her utility bills each month. Our recommendation to address this problem was to properly vent, seal, and insulate the attic. On the day of the project our Home Comfort Technicians got to started by pulling back the existing insulation and properly air sealing the top plates, outlets, and recessed lights. This process is done using are fire block spray foam which creates and solid barrier when applied to a surface, keeping the conditioned air in your home from escaping. The next step was installing baffles along the eaves of the roof. the baffles ensure proper air flow into the attic, while also allowing our crew to blow in the proper amount of insulation throughout the entire attic.. The final step is to blow in our stabilized cellulose insulation to ensure there is 16in of insulation throughout the attic.
Following these steps, Reginal noticed an immediate difference in comfort throughout the second floor of her home, and can't wait to see how it effects her energy bills each month.

Wael called in and requested an estimate for some work to be done in his attic. He was suspecting that there were some drafts in his upstairs area and after Ben, our Home Comfort Specialist, checked it out and confirmed his suspicions, gave Wael an estimate for the work. After he considered a couple other estimates from other companies, he concluded that we had the best offer and agreed to use Complete Home Solutions to fix his uncomfortable home! We sent out our Home Comfort Technicians, Alex, Carlos, and Joe to prep the attic by air sealing the top plates before we install new insulation in the attic. Most air leakage into the attic comes from top plates within the attic, so blocking them should solve the draft within the upstairs area. After the attic is prepped, the insulation truck comes and installs new blown-in cellulose insulation.
Wael has reported that his issue has been resolved and his upstairs area feels much more comfortable!
This home in Accokeek, Maryland was suffering from extremely drafty rooms. During the winter months, this meant cold rooms and high utility bills. The homeowner didn't know what they could do to fix this problem... but Complete Home Solutions did.
We started out by giving a Home Energy Audit. With this, we could pin point where the problem areas in the house were. The attic was our biggest concern. There was little to no insulation, and the insulation that was there was ratty and torn apart (essentially useless). So, we tore out any of the old insulation, air sealed any of the ductwork that was up there, and installed TruSoft Cellulose insulation. It's amazing how almost immediately the homeowner could feel the difference. You may not ever go up to your attic, but trust us, what's up there matters!
The homeowners of this home in Laurel, Maryland knew that their attic insulation was inadequate and so they called Complete Home Solutions to find a solution. Our Auditor determined that the home needed blown-in cellulose insulation to replace the old ineffective and inefficient insulation and bring the insulation levels up to Dr. Energy Saver suggested levels.
Our Producion Team installed the blown-in cellulose insultion to make the home warmer this winter and more energy efficient in the future. These homeowners are feeling more comfortable already!
Homes that have insufficient insulation like this one in Laurel, Maryland often suffer from cold drafts and uncomfortable temperatures in the home. The lack of attic insulation removes the buffer from the outside temperatures that the attic space is exposed to and the regulated temperatures in the home. Our Production Team removed the existing attic insulation and used blow in cellulose insulation to make the insulation levels meet the Dr. Energy Saver recommended levels.
