Before & After Photos

Joe called Home Environment Solutions to have the insulation upgraded in his Wexford, PA home.   The HES team and removed the existing insulation with the truck mounted vacuum.   The team then got the attic ready for the new insulation by air sealing it and installing both a scuttle cover and TiteShell light covers.   The last step was to insulate the attic floor with TruSoft Cellulose.   The new attic insulation will keep Joe's home more comfortable all year long.

Susan contacted us because her single-story home, in Wexford, PA, had rising energy bills and she was concerned about rodent contamination in the attic insulation. Even though the issues weren’t visible inside the living space, energy loss and attic conditions were impacting the overall efficiency of her home. She also wanted better access to the attic for storage and future maintenance.

Our team removed and sanitized rodent-contaminated insulation, thoroughly disinfected the attic, and sealed air leaks throughout the attic floor. We then upgraded the insulation system, installed an insulated scuttle cover, sealed attic penetrations and top plates, and improved attic access so the space could be used safely and effectively.

Now, Susan’s home is cleaner, healthier, and far more energy efficient.

Brad reached out after experiencing ice damming along the roofline and sides of his home during winter. Along with the ice buildup, the home had high energy bills and noticeable hot and cold temperature swings upstairs.

Ice dams are often caused by heat escaping into the attic, warming the roof deck and creating uneven melting and refreezing. Our team focused on stopping that heat loss at the source.

We sealed attic air leaks, sealed top plates and attic penetrations, addressed chimney-related leakage, sealed soffit areas, installed insulation dams, upgraded insulation levels, and improved attic access. By strengthening the attic’s thermal boundary, we reduced the heat escaping into the attic space.

With the improvements complete, the attic is properly sealed and insulated, helping prevent future ice damming. The upstairs now experiences more consistent temperatures, and the home operates more efficiently overall.

A business owner contacted Home Environment Solutions when he discovered that raccoons were living in his empty office building.  Knowing the heath dangers of raccoon waste he wanted to have it dealt with professionally.     

The HES team arrived in full Tyvek suits and respirators to get to work.   they removed all of the animal waste and the contaminated building materials form the empty office.   They then sanitized all remaining surfaces and used an air scrubber with a HEPA filter to remove any airborne particles.   

The empty office building is now safe for future occupants.
