This Binghamton, NY homeowner was in the midst of turning a portion of his basement into a second bathroom. This basement had a sump pump that wasn't adequate enough to get all the water off the floors of the basement, leaving puddles in places.
We installed our Basement to Beautiful panels in the area (10' x 15') of where the bathroom was going to be. The rest of the basement walls were sprayed with 2" of our Closed Cell Spray Foam, as well as 2" of Closed cell spray foam in the rim joists. The sump pump was also replaced with our SuperSump Basement pumping system, which includes a condensate pump with it to expel excess moisture on it's own into the outdoors. We also installed our SaniDry Sedona to keep the moisture levels down in the basement.
This Binghamton, NY homeowner wanted to ensure he'd still have storage space in his attic, but also was determined to have good insulation.
We were certainly able to fulfill that accomplish list item for him by building a storage deck in the attic. We custom built a storage deck and damming, and once the walls were in place we did an open blow of our Cellulose Insulation so the attic could still be used for storage.
These Binghamton, NY homeowners had converted their walk up attic to accomodate their growing family. Unfortunately, they faced the dilemma of an attic space that was very hot in the summer months and very cold in the winter months. The rest of the home had very minimal amounts of insulation, with the family room sitting over the garage which was quite chilly for the occupants of the home.
We dense packed the walls, slopes and the floor of the family room. We also used 4 inches of our Closed Cell Spray Foam to the side attics of the home for better insulation - these walls can easily be finished with sheetrock or other paneling to create a living space.
This Binghamton, NY homeowner was having an issue with his exterior walls and had recently had a new roof put on, and wondered if the home was insulated enough. Our free Home Comfort Evaluation showed that there was no airsealing done to the attic space, but the attic had 13 inches of cellulose insulation in there. In order to properly air seal, we'd have to vaccum out the existing cellulose insulation.
Once we had all the cellulose insulation removed, we were able to properly air seal the attic. This includes sealing around the top plates, wire penetrations and light fixtures. We then did an open blow of 15 inches of fresh cellulose insulation.
This Binghamton, NY homeowner wanted to improve the comfortability of his home. Our Home Comfort Evaluation showed there was no insulation in the attic.
Since the attic was already fully decked for storage, we decided to dense pack the floor of the attic. There is also living space above the garage ceiling, which was quite cold to the homeowner. We dense packed the garage ceiling here as well. We also insulated a crawl space beneath the home with our encapsulation system with laying down 6 mil poly and spraying the walls and rim joists with 2 inches of closed cell spray foam.
