Attic Insulation Before & After Photos

Our client-to-be was not looking forward to winter this year. They remembered last year when their house was freezing (especially downstairs) and their utility bills skyrocketed. This year, they were able to get in touch with Complete Home Solutions before the same thing happened again. 

We were able to diagnose this home's heating problem and provide solutions to correct it. Air sealing and insulating the attic would make a drastic difference in the home's comfort. The little insulation that was in the attic before was not working very effectively (especially since there was no air sealing to accompany it). Also, the duct work that was in the attic wasn't sufficiently insulated. Before adding blown in cellulose insulation into the attic, we made sure to seal and insulate the duct work with spray foam. This client will now have a much more comfortable home to look forward to this year. 

This Homeowner called Complete Home Solutions because the upstairs of the home experienced dramatic temperature differences in the winter and in the summer.  The attic was insulated by rolled fiberglass batt insulation which was not providing the thermal barrier to keep the hot or cold air inside the home. Often fiberglass batt insulation has large voids or gaps between the pieces allowing your insulation to lose it's effectivenes or R-value.  Not only does fiberglass insulation lose it's R-value, any insulation installed in an attic area with no air sealing becomes the world's largest air filter.  Insulation alone cannot keep your heated or cooled air inside the home.  By removing the old deteriorated insulation, air sealing the attic area and installing a warm blanket of blown cellulose insulation we were able to make this home much more COMFORTABLE.  

The end result, a very Happy Homeowner that is now experiencing a more comfortable home life and a cheaper utility bill!

This homeowner in Upper Marlboro, MD was experiencing high energy bills and her home was hard to heat during the winter.

We completed a home energy audit to identify all of the areas in the home that were leaking air and low on insulation. We air sealed  all of the cracks and holes insuring that no air leaks will happen in the future. In additon, we added our TruSoft blown-in insulation to improve the overall comfort of the home.

This homeowner was not happy with the way that her house couldn't seem to maintain a consistent temperature. In summer the upstairs became very hot and in winter the downstairs became very cold. She had our home comfort specialist come out to recommend some solutions for her house. 

We recommended that she treat her attic to form a thermal barrier. We did this by caulking along any cavities that would allow for air leakage in the attic, air sealing the attic hatch, installing insulation baffles, and blowing in closed-cell cellulose insulation. This customer now has a comfortable home that she can be happy with all year round.

This single family home in Upper Marlboro, Maryland suffered from a busted sprinkler system pipe.

Our Auditor went out to assess the damage and recommend a solution. The production crew removed the damaged insualtion. Then they installed new insulation throughout the attic to improve the homes overall comfort.
