"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."

"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

In nearly all cases, you are required to install a vapor barrier in your crawl space. However, local regulations will change based on the local climate and the crawl space's susceptibility to moisture. Even if a vapor barrier is not legally required, it is often a good idea to keep your crawl space dry.

Don’t install insulation near water heaters, oil burners, or any other object that gets hot. Many insulation materials are fire-resistant, but not entirely fire-proof, so you should take precautions to keep hot things away from fiberglass. This is also why it is imperative to box off lighting fixtures and breaker boxes.

Spreading tin foil over your windows works similarly to radiant barrier insulation, but not as well. It will reflect some of the sunlight that would otherwise come through the glass and warm up the inside of your home, so it might help a little to keep your home cool in the summer. However, the appearance isn’t preferable to blinds or drapes that can offer the same benefits. You might also consider tinting your windows instead, which is a more aesthetically pleasing change that can still block a good portion of the solar heat coming through your windows.

Mineral wool has an excellent life expectancy of up to 50 years, provided it's kept dry and free of pests. Compared to fiberglass, with a life span of 20 to 30 years, mineral wool stacks up well for long-term cost savings. Sheep wool maintains a similar life span to fiberglass, while estimates for hemp wool insulation life expectancies are all over the board, ranging anywhere from 20 to 100 years.

You won’t find anything inside a cupola on a house because it’s hollow (think of an upside-down cup), allowing air to ventilate out of a roof via vents and light to come in via windows. They also usually have a base, vents around the middle (usually louvers), and a pointed cap at the top.
