Home Insulation Before & After Photos

The attic of this home had only eight inches of insulation installed which was inadequate to maintain the heat that was created inside the home. On top of this, the attic hatch was not properly insulated and was allowing conditioned air from inside the home to enter the attic and escape the home. Our specialist informed this homeowner of the benefits of blow-in insulation at specific depths. The homeowner decided on the depth of blow-in insulation that they were comfortable with and our production crew set out to make their dream a reality. From the photos it looks like this area of the attic was filled with an average of around 20 inches of insulation. This insulation provides a much better barrier between the cold attic and the living space below. With the addition of rigid foam board insulation installed over the hatch this attic is much more insulated and air sealed from the home below.

A homeowner in Barnum, MN reached out to DBS regarding our insulation service. certain areas of the home had cold air leaks and drafts, and the homeowner wanted to find a solution that would help save the home energy. After a thorough inspection, it was determined that one area in need of better insulation would be the crawl space of the home. To do this, our crew would install spray foam insulation along the crawl space ground and wood wall unit. This insulation will replace the original fiberglass insulation that was occupying the crawl space. The results turned out great, and the homeowner can now enjoy a more warm and energy-efficient environment.

The owner of this home in Grand Marais, MN experienced issues with dark streaks on the ceiling that was caused by condensation.

Foreman Nicholas Woods II led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they removed the old batting insulation in the attic to start with a clean slate. Then they installed TiteShell™ can light covers over the lighting fixtures and sealed each with ZypFoam™ to prevent air leaks through gaps. To complete the air sealing process, the crew applied closed cell spray foam insulation to the floorboards in the attic. Finally, they blew in 18 inches of TruSoft™ cellulose insulation.

The homeowners will be much more comfortable in their homes now that their attic has been properly insulated.
