High Energy Bills and Frozen Pipes Fixed with SprayFoam in Saint Paul, MN Home

This homeowner in Saint Paul, MN was experiencing frozen pipes, a cold basement, and high energy bills. Wanting to address these inconvenient issues, they reached out to DBS for help.

Design Specialist Nick Corbin assisted the homeowner in a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful inspection, a quote was provided and SprayFoam insulation was recommended for the home.

Foreman Raeshawn Pelfrey led a team in the installation of this project. The team started the project by removing the old batting insulation. This exposes the hidden holes and cracks that are allowing unwanted airflow in and out of the house. After finding these spots, they used the SprayFoam insulation as a sealant to air seal these spots. Afterward, the insulation is sprayed throughout the area to create an even insulation layer and moisture barrier.

This homeowner can now relax knowing their home is warm and energy bills will be low.

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.
