Fluctuating Temperature in Saint Paul, MN Home Controlled Using SprayFoam Insulation

This homeowner in Saint Paul, MN wanted to address the insulation problem in their basement. The space was continuously too hot or too cold depending on the season, making it unusable.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo assisted the owner by conducting a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful inspection, Henrik recommended the installation of SprayFoam insulation. 

Foreman Brain Whiting led the installation of this project with help from a team. First, the team used the SprayFoam insulation to air seal any cracks or holes in the walls that may be allowing unwanted airflow to enter or exit the home. After air sealing, they installed the insulation across the entirety of the wall to create the insulation barrier, as well as a moisture barrier.

This homeowner can now relax in their temperature appropriate home.

Cathedral Ceilings Dense-Packed With DBS Tru-Soft™ Cellulose Insulation

The owners of this home in Saint Paul, MN experienced issues with keeping their house warm. They would raise the heat but all they got in return was high energy bills. Looking for a solution, the owners contacted DBS.

Design Specialist Austin Burley went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the owners. After evaluation, he suggested the owners have insulation dense-packed into their cathedral-style ceilings to help insulate their roof.

Foreman Nick Woods II led the installation for this project with help from his crew. Together they drilled holes in each bay of the ceiling to dense-pack blown-in Tru-Soft™ cellulose insulation as the space in between the ceiling and roof was inaccessible. Tru-Soft™ cellulose insulation is more efficient than fiber-glass because it retains heat better and is also treated in a borate solution to prevent pests and acts as a fire-retardant. To finish the job the team sealed off each injection site with ZypFoam™ to completely air seal the space.

Now that the home has been properly insulated, the homeowners can relax comfortably as they experience lower energy bills and a warmer household.
