Before & After Photos

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. 

This homeowner in Holyoke, MA reached out to us hoping that we would be able to help him with his basement windows. He needed them to be replaced, as one of the windows was broken. 

Luckily for this homeowner, we were able to help them out with this. We replaced the old and inefficient windows with our Everlast™ basement windows. These windows feature double pane glass that is treated to reduce heat flow in or out of the glass. They also have vinyl frames and sashes -- meaning they will not rust, rot, or need paint. Now, this homeowner has a much nicer looking set of basement windows, and the basement will be more comfortable!
