Rim Joist Insulation Provides Proper Insulation in Washburn, WI Basement to Decrease Heating Bill

The owners of this home in Washburn, WI were having issues keeping their basement warm. They reached out to DBS in hopes of finding an energy-efficient solution.

Design Specialist Rich Johnsen went out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. Rich informed that the issue was caused by improperly sealed rim joists in their basement. Cold air would continue to leak in through the rim joists if left alone.

Foreman Raeshawn Pelfrey led the installation of this project with help from his crew. Together they sprayed waterproof polyurethane foam into each rim joist of the home. The spray foam air seals the space as it expands when applied. Read this article to learn more about rim joists and how DBS can thoroughly insulate your basement.

Now that the rim joists have been air-sealed, the homeowners will be able to relax comfortably in their homes without paying high heating bills.

Mold Infested Spaces in Washburn, WI Home Combatted with TruSoft Cellulose

This home in Washburn, WI had problems with moisture which was leading to mold growth in two separate areas. Needing a permanent solution, the homeowner trusted DBS with the project.

Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer assisted this homeowner in a free, no-obligation estimate for their home to find the perfect solution. After inspecting the areas in need of help, Henry recommended DES TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. 

A DBS foreman led a team in the installation of this project. The team removed any old, ineffective insulation and began air sealing the space. Air sealing stops any unwanted air flow from cracks and holes from affecting the home. After air sealing, TruSoft™ cellulose was blown into the spaces. TruSoft™ is an environmentally friendly option that is resistant to fire with long lasting performance.

This homeowner will no longer need to worry about cold bedrooms or unhealthy air due to mold.
