A Chester homeowner with a property near the Kent Narrows was struggling with a damp, drafty crawlspace and high energy costs. We applied closed-cell spray foam to the foundation walls and completed a full crawlspace encapsulation. The result was a dry, conditioned space, a more comfortable home, and a significant reduction in their monthly utility bills.

The best type of insulation depends on various factors, including the area of your home being insulated and your specific goals. Due to Chester's humid climate, closed-cell spray foam is an excellent option for areas prone to moisture, like crawlspaces and foundations, because it acts as a vapor barrier. For attics, blown-in insulation or fiberglass batts are also popular and effective choices.
Signs that you may need new insulation include high energy bills, drafts or cold spots in your home, fluctuating temperatures between rooms, and issues with moisture or mold in your crawlspace or attic.
Crawlspace encapsulation is highly beneficial in coastal areas. It involves sealing the crawlspace with a heavy-duty vapor barrier to prevent moisture from the ground from entering your home. This helps to prevent mold and mildew growth, improve indoor air quality, and protect your home's structural integrity from moisture damage.
Yes, when installed by trained professionals, spray foam insulation is safe. There is a brief off-gassing period immediately after installation, during which the home should be vacated. After this curing period, typically around 24 hours, the insulation is stable and does not release harmful gases.
R-value measures an insulation's ability to resist heat flow; a higher R-value indicates better insulating performance. For Maryland, it is generally recommended that attics be insulated to R-49 to R-60 and floors to R-25 to R-30.
Absolutely. Proper insulation and air sealing can significantly reduce the workload on your HVAC system by preventing heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. This increased efficiency can lead to substantial savings on your heating and cooling costs.
Open-cell spray foam is less dense and has a sponge-like texture, making it a great air barrier and sound insulator. Closed-cell spray foam is denser, provides a higher R-value per inch, and acts as a moisture barrier, making it ideal for foundations and crawlspaces.
When installed correctly, spray foam insulation does not settle or degrade over time and can last for the lifetime of your home, which is often estimated at 80 years or more.
Yes, we specialize in retrofitting existing homes with new insulation. We can add insulation to attics, crawlspaces, and, in some cases, walls, to improve the comfort and energy efficiency of your current home.
Foundation insulation helps to maintain a more consistent temperature in your basement or crawlspace, which in turn affects the comfort of the living spaces above. It also helps to prevent moisture from seeping through the foundation walls, reducing the risk of mold and mildew.
