Should I insulate my copper pipes?

• <div><p>Yes, you should insulate your copper pipes to help regulate their temperature. Well-insulated copper pipes will be protected from freezing and can conserve energy by keeping hot water warm for longer. Foam rubber insulation tubes are the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-materials-are-best-pipe-insulation.htm">best pipe insulation to prevent freezing</a> since they fit tightly around the pipes while still maintaining some flexibility.</p></div>

Q: Does open-cell foam need a vapor barrier?

• <div><p>Because of the moisture concern, open-cell foam requires a vapor barrier. The barrier protects against high humidity and moisture exposure in rooms such as basements, bathrooms, or exterior walls. It wouldn't be necessary in dry interior spaces.</p></div>

Q: What is best to put on windows to keep cold out?

• <div><p>To keep cold out, look for treatments that sit close to the window frame and are made from thick, insulating materials. Thermal curtains, cellular shades, window quilts, and insulated shutters can all help retain heat. Layering window treatments, like pairing lined curtains with cellular shades, can provide even better insulation by further reducing drafts and heat transfer.</p></div>

Q: How do you insulate a stone house?

• <div><p>Insulating a stone house is an expensive and involved process because it requires building a double-walled house. The walls don&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: Can an existing garage door be insulated?

• <div><p>You can insulate an existing garage door. But while it&rsquo;s a cost-effective option upfront, it may not perform as well as a garage door that comes with insulation. If you live in a colder climate&mdash;or if you plan on working in your garage and need a new door&mdash;you should purchase one with existing insulation for better efficiency. </p></div>

William Moore, owner of Patriot Contracting is amazing! Nobody would commit to a complete 1880's home renovation at the height of the pandemic. He figured out relocating a stairwell that 6 other contractors and a structural engineer never got. He and his crew were hardworking, honest, and...
