"We contacted Jim Sullivan at Energy Savers after receiving a reliable recommendation from our favorite general contractor, Jeff Chyko. Energy Savers did not disappoint!! Matt and Dave first came to inspect and provide an estimate. They were very thoughtful in taking off their shoes on that rainy day, and they also wore face masks in the house (thank you). They were thorough and professional, and also personable. We quickly received the estimate from Jim and were pleasantly surprised by how reasonable it was! We were able to schedule the appointment for about four days later. Matt and Dave returned with their equipment, and did an amazing and thorough job. They hung plastic sheets from the attic access down to the floor to control any dust that could come down from the attic. They blew in fiberglass insulation after doing some repair work and rearranging existing batting in the attic. They also vacuumed up afterward! Now this is the test: We heat with wood. Yesterday we decided to let the wood stove burn out in the afternoon and go cold so we could see how much heat the house would lose overnight. When we went to bed at 10:00 p.m. it was 73 degrees in the house. When we woke up at 7:00 a.m. the next morning, it was 70 degrees!! We are so thrilled with Energy Savers, Jim, Matt and Dave. We would highly recommend them to anyone who would like to add some additional insulation and warmth (and reduce heat loss!) in their homes."

"The Estimate: The representative arrived as scheduled. We entered the crawlspace and he examined the area to be insulated. Photos were taken. We discussed in depth the one area that might cause problems and insured that I was aware that area might be problematic. He asked if I had further questions then informed me he would get an estimate after discussing the job with others at the office. A few days later the estimate arrived and it indicated in detail what would be done. Everything was outlined as I requested, giving particular detail to the one problem area. The Scheduling: After accepting the work description I was contacted by a scheduler giving me a specific day that the work would be done. The job details were covered again, I was informed of the deposit required, and was insured the job would be completed as described. The actual work: The work crew arrived as scheduled and on time. The first worker arriving once again briefly discussed what would be done. A short time later the crew boss arrived and he insured me that the work would be done as required. We briefly discussed the one area (the problem area) of concern and I was informed he was aware and would do his best to complete it. The work began. All of the old insulation batting was removed, bagged, and taken out of the crawlspace. I was amazed that there was such a small quantity of existing insulation. All of the rim joist areas were filled with foam as specified, then thick batting was applied to the perimeter walls and sealed in place with foam. The problem area was “opened up” and the foam was blown into that area. Upon completion I was informed that it would smell for awhile in the crawlspace but nothing was hazardous about the odor. I was shown some photos of the work completed. Later in the day I inspected the area. The job was very complete. The concrete walls appeared as if a military drill instructor had supervised the work. Everything was cut level and even and looked very good. I looked at the problem area and was amazed at the great quality of the work. That evening I noticed that my furnace did not fire up as often as usual and that the back room of the house above the problem area was much warmer than before and now the same temperature as the rest of the house. Follow Up: Within a few days I was called by the scheduler and informed that if anything needed additional work, to give him a call. The final bill was sent. Recommendation: Polyseal insulation gets a very high recommendation from me. The company used the minimal number of workers required to do a fantastic job. The area was left free of debris and I was informed to call if anything was not done as expected."

"After calling about half a dozen of other companies where no one would come out, I called 911 Plumbing after a recommendation on Facebook. I called Dylan and he was over here within an hour. He worked from 9:30 PM until 2 in the morning. His rates were great and he's really knowledgeable. I was so impressed. On a rate of 1-10, I'd give him an 11. I'm going to have him back for any regular plumbing work as well as emergency work and will refer him to all of my friends. His type of concierge service is unlike anyone else in the business."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes! Outdoor faucet covers work by enclosing the faucet with a thick, insulating material that will keep the faucet warmer than outdoor temperatures. They need to be sealed tightly against the house to work properly, though, so be sure to tighten the rubber strap or drawstring on the insulation cover to best protect your faucets.

The heat loss through a poorly insulated attic when you’re running your furnace or heat pump during cold weather can be as high as 25%. This means you could see significantly higher energy costs to make up for this heat loss. The cost of adding insulation to the attic may eventually pay for itself through lower energy bills. If you decide to add a radiant barrier too, the radiant barrier cost may also pay for itself over time.

You do not always need to remove old insulation before adding new. If the existing insulation is in good condition—not wet, physically damaged, moldy, or infested with pests—you can add new insulation directly on top of it for a compounding effect. You can also mix different types, such as adding blown-in insulation around existing fiberglass batts.

However, removal is recommended if the old insulation is compromised by water damage or pests. You should also remove it if you plan to install a different type of insulation, like switching from roll or batt insulation to spray foam. If the existing insulation is very old or damaged, you will likely get more benefit from removing it and starting fresh.

Whether plaster walls should be insulated depends on whether the walls are at particular risk of moisture problems. In many cases, you can insulate plaster walls, while in others, it's a poor decision because of the lack of a vapor barrier. Choose a reputable insulation contractor to help you decide if and how to proceed to increase your home's energy efficiency.

Insulating a stone house is an expensive and involved process because it requires building a double-walled house. The walls don’t need to be the same thickness, but they both need to be thick enough to handle any structural demands and meet fire and safety standards. The insulation (usually foam or fiberglass) is then installed between the two stone walls.
