Before & After Photos

Dust and debris accumulated over the years causes poor energy efficiency and higher energy bills and most importantly, affects the health and well-being of the young and adults. Recognizing the importance of clean indoor air quality for their son's health, who was suffering from Asthma, and for the comfort of the family we recommended Platinum Air Duct Cleaning service. We meticulously cleared out years of dust and debris from their ductwork ensuring a fresh start for their home's airflow. At Lawson, we prioritize our clients' well-being and comfort.

This homeowner called Lawson Home Services because he wanted to reduce dust and allergens in his New Castle, DE home. 

The problem was evident when Donnie Lonski, Lawson's trusty duct cleaning technician, opened the hatches and looked deep inside the duct work. Have a look at the "Before" picture - would you want to breathe air that was flowing past all that?  

When Donnie finished the job the insides of the ductwork looked like new, as you can see in the "After" picture. The heat exchange coil inside the air handler was also cleaned allowing the HVAC unit to operate much more efficiently. 

Last but not least, a Breathe EZ™ Ultraviolet light unit was installed inside the ductwork to sanitize the air and kill airborne microbes. 
This home owner should be able to breathe a lot easier now. 

This detached brownstone row home, likely built in the late 1800s had an addition built over a previously existing porch. The owner wanted us to make the rooms in this addition warmer in winter.

An Energy Audit conducted by Lawson Home Service found the problem was the way the space under the back porch addition had been enclosed and insulated.

A Dr. Energy Saver's CleanSpace™ Crawlspace Encapsulation System was installed, which included installing SilverGlo™ insulation on the walls, and a thick layer of spray foam on the rim band between the floor joists. With this simple and effective method the insulation hanging from the floor was no longer necessary. The access door was replaced with an air tight EverLastTM Crawl Space Door.

Now the addition room will be comfortable all year long, thanks to the work of Lawson Home Service's hard-working crew.

This three story townhouse, built in 2007, had 7" fiberglass batts on the attic floor. The R value was approximately R18. 

This old insulation was removed to provide a totally clean attic floor. This is done so the attic floor can be air sealed, a crucial step in preventing expensive loss of conditioned air into the attic. In addition, it was necessary to re-route the bathroom fans so they terminated properly on the roof, rather than in the attic.
Once all the prep work was thoroughly completed the crew blew in a 17" blanket of TruSoft™ Cellulose insulation, tripling the R-value for a cozy comfortable R60. Kudos crew! The homeowner was happy with the results.  

A lot of the attics we go in require you to walk across joists or unsecure planks of wood to access air handlers, duct work, and attic fans. To the inexperienced individual it can be a dangerous area to walk and climb across.  Other attics have entrances and areas that aren’t securely blocked off from insulation.  This can cause insulation and dust to spill into unconditioned areas of your finished home.  

At Lawson’s we install secure, durable dams and decking. (1) We insulate the deck to make sure we are not sacrificing insulation and (2) we create a safe and secure way to enter the attic and if necessary service your air handler or other equipment located in that area.  As an addition we can even expand the decking for extra storage.
