Before & After Photos

This homeowner in South Deerfield, MA called us looking to remove and replace his old insulation. The insulation was low quality, and the homeowner was hoping that new blown-in insulation would help make his home more comfortable. 

Our team started with removing the old blown-in insulation. The loose insulation was vacuumed out into giant filter bags with a very long hose. We then air sealed the entire attic using our ZypFoam treatment, and insulated the chimney and scuttle cover. We also installed baffles to ensure proper ventilation.

Once the entire attic was clean and sealed, it was time to install our own TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. Luckily for the homeowner, blown in insulation fills all gaps and odd shaped voids. Their home will stay comfortable for years to come!

This customer in Holyoke, MA called us out because of a concern they were having in their home. Their concern was that they could not keep their home or family room warm in the winter. This was caused by a lack of proper insulation in the attic of the home. Without proper insulation air can leak into your attic and out of your home, making it difficult and costly to keep a home warm.

To fix this, we use our SuperPlatform treatment. First we need to remove the existing insulation.  Our installers remove all of the old insulation, bag it up, and properly dispose of the materials. Since this home contains an HVAC system in their attic we have make sure there is a proper walkway, or catwalk in the attic. This makes it so that service can be done correctly and safely in a space where there are mechanics.  Next, we lay our 4" SilverGlo foam board across the wooded walkway. This will increase the insulation value by 24%. We want to make sure that none of the blown in insulation we are installing will get on to our new walkway. Next, we have to install plywood over the foam board and held in place by long screws and washers. Following this step, we dense pack TruSoft cellulose insulation into any space beneath the catwalk that is not filled. Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this customer is warmer and ecstatic with the temperature in their home!

This basement had a problem with flooding so we installed an open sump pump and a SaniDry Sedona. These pair up to create low relative humidity, stop mold from growing, and most importantly help in case of a flood.

This homeowner in Holyoke, MA called us looking to get his bulkhead door replaced. It was old and rusty, and it desperately needed a refresh. 

Fogarty's Home Services was able to help this customer. We were able to install a beautiful new bulkhead door. We caulked around the edges and installed flashing behind the door to ensure a tight fit. Now, it looks amazing, and the homeowner is happy! 

This customer in Holyoke, MA called for help with water damage in his basement. When we arrived, we realized that the basement was not insulated at all.

In order to properly insulate, we needed to first remove and treat areas affected by the water damage. Our team got to work removing the damaged parts of the basement. We also removed large areas of mold with our Mold-X2 Cleaner. Afterward, we immediately treated with Mold-X2 Botanical to prevent mold from growing back. Then, our team got to work insulating the walls. We installed Foamax™ insulation board on his walls. This was an important first step in preparing for basement finishing.
