Before & After Photos

This attic in Leesburg Virginia was upgraded with a radiant barrier to help keep temperatures down and energy cost lower than they had been.  Applying the radiant barrier throughout the attic will help to keep external heat from penetrating into the attic. 

This Leesburg VA home was suffering from poor insulation that failed to provide adequate coverage. This was causing discomfort to the homeowner by leaving rooms too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. When our sales professional Eric visited the home, he provided a full home evaluation and found a variety of solutions for the homeowner to choose from. The homeowner ended up deciding they wanted to have all of the old insulation removed and install new high-quality TruSoft cellulose insulation.   TruSoft offers better coverage for a more even insulation job than the previous insulation and will last longer with less chance of rodents in the space due to being coated with a safe, animal deterrent.  

Part of this Leesburg VA attic project included building a new service deck to allow access to the HVAC unit in the attic. This will help to keep the insulation contained and let the service technician freely walk to and from the HVAC unit.  

This home in Ashburn VA had several issues that the homeowner wanted to address, one of which was to make the upper level loft of the home more comfortable year round.  Our Home Performance Sales Pro Eric determined that this could be done by improving the insulation in the attic.  While the attic already had some blown in cellulose insulation covering the attic floor, the walls of the attic were poorly treated and were allowing cold temperatures and air to move into the space.  Eric suggested adding another 6 inches of insulation and to have Silver Glo panels installed on the walls of the attic.  The panels were then air sealed with Zyp Foam to properly protect the space from unwanted air flow.  

This Ashburn VA attic underwent a full transformation.  After our Home Performance Sales Pro performed a no cost inspection of the home, it was determined that the attic space would benefit from air sealing, blown cellulose insulation and panel insulation used on this wall that was facing the sun for most hours of the day and required additional attention to be properly insulated.  The existing wall panel insulation was insufficient and was not air sealed.  Our production team installed the SilverGlo insulation panels and used ZypFoam to seal up the cracks in between.  This helped to create the best result to help improve the comfort ii the home and reduce the energy costs related to heating and cooling the home.
