This homeowner in Windsor Locks, CT had just purchased their home and knew there was work to be done with the insulation. Cape Cod style homes often have poorly insulated kneewall spaces, and we can help.

The old insulation was dirty, ineffective, and falling apart so we started by removing it. Once the space was clean, we installed our SilverGlo graphite infused EPS foam with radiant barrier to keep the heat from the roof out and the heat from the home in. Lastly, we sealed the spaces between the boards.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this home is far more energy efficient and comfortable.

This homeowner in Windsor Locks, CT called us hoping that we would be able to replace her bulkhead door. The bulkhead door was rusting and rotting, and they were interested in getting it replaced. 

Luckily, Fogarty's Home Services was able to help this homeowner. We were able to install a beautiful new bulkhead door that was the correct size for the pre-existing concrete. We caulked around the edges and installed flashing behind the door to ensure a tight fit.  Combining this with our other solutions ensures that this homeowner will have a safe, warm, and dry basement for years to come! 

This Homeowner in Windsor Locks, CT was putting away storage during the holidays and realized that the attic was not properly insulated. They were running ducts through the attic which is vented. The ducts were being exposed to extreme temperatures making it tougher to heat and cool the home. They also had a mold issue, which can be very dangerous!

The old, fiberglass insulation in their attic was ineffective and needed to be removed completely. We removed the insulation and the attic was vacuumed. Then, we spray our Mold-X2 to to kill and stop all mold spores from growing! Now, we had a clean work space, to start installing the foam insulation board. We got to work installing our SilverGlo graphite infused foam insulation board, across the roof rafter and Gable end. The foil on the foam board reflects heat out in summer, and keeps the warm air in during winter. The roof is still vented, and stays cold in winter to prevent ice damming. Now the attic is a conditioned space, and the ducts don't have to work so hard because the environment is at a maintained temperature. Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners will have a more comfortable home, lower energy bills and a storage space in the attic!

Steps Fogarty’s Home Services Took to Make This Home More Comfortable. Crawl Space Repair With Crawl Space Encapsulation System and Sealing of All Air Leaks.

This homeowner in Windsor Locks, CT called us hoping to talk about his attic insulation. An inspection of the home revealed issues with the ventilation in his attic. They had an addition that was added on over 45 years ago, and the issues started around that time. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he spoke to the homeowners about other issues that were happening in the home. They mentioned that the basement was very damp and humid. It had a strong, musty odor, and they had high energy bills. 

We had the perfect solution for this customer! We utilized two-part expanding spray foam. We insulated the rim joist (the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the home). We spray this foam in the rim joist and over the sill plate. Insulating the rim joist in this way seals all air leaks -- filling in the cracks and gaps that are present there. This prevents outside air from getting into the home. The homeowner is now very happy, and he is much more comfortable in his home!
