"I wanted to get my attic insulated. First, I reviewed what materials would be best to use, what a quality inspection of the work to be done should consist of, estimates for the work to be done. Then I obtained three proposals for the jobs. One was ridiculously high. The lowest was based on a cursory inspection and accompanied by legalese language mentioning that the initially quoted price was subject to change, that a lien could be placed on the property, etc. I selected JJ&Kâ s proposal. It was based on a thorough inspection, and the price was in line with my expectations. Alfredo Oleasâ team was professional and courteous. They did what I would consider a quality job. They followed required safety precautions and cleaned up after the work. Alfredo was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend his company."
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Energy Evolution for a spray foam insulation job, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Their main technician Cristian, was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly thorough from start to finish. He took the time to explain the process, answered all my questions, and made sure every detail was handled with precision.
If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, skilled, and committed to doing top-notch work, I highly recommend them. Thank you for a job exceptionally well done!"
"Anthony and his team did an incredible job insulating our full gut remodel in Fairfield. He took the time to put together a foam package that made the most of our budget. The crew was polite, neat and efficient. They took great care to cover finished surfaces before spraying and did a thorough clean up so we could jump right into sheet-rocking. Highly recommended for quality of work, constant communication and value!"

"I found Score Construction on Home Advisor's website. I was looking for a contractor and needless to say I read reviews for many of the construction firms. Every review I read was terrific for Score Construction and because of that I called, met Janusz Z who is the Owner and was very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. I started with 2 bathrooms that were necessary to do because of water damage. I was thrilled with the work done, the care of how it was done by the workers that were both professional and respectful. A year later a major renovation for my apartment was considered and I called Score Construction. Not only did the renovation to my apartment turn out fabulous and I'm happy every day that I wake up and see how beautiful it is, but they also did major work to the outside of our building - replacing the cornice, roof repair, pointing of bricks, structurally reinforcing all 16 windows which was no easy task for a 100 year old building, but they got it done. ALL this work again was done professionally and with the utmost of care and the knowledge of how to get the job done is their forte'. Every experience that I have had with Score Construction workers and owner, Janusz Z has been top notch. I recommend Score Construction HIGHLY. You will be extremely happy that you did so."
An insulated garage benefits from roof vents to ensure proper ventilation and prevent moisture buildup. Insulation can trap moisture in the garage, especially during temperature fluctuations, and roof vents play a crucial role in expelling the moisture in the air. Including roof vents promotes air circulation, preventing condensation and enhancing overall air quality.
Durable materials suited for climate include aluminum for coastal areas or composite wood in varying environments for durability and minimal upkeep.
EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish System) siding can last from 20 to 60 years, with some properly maintained systems lasting even longer. The exact lifespan depends heavily on several factors, most notably the quality of the initial installation and the consistency of maintenance.
Factors that can shorten the life of EIFS include:
Improper or poor-quality installation
Moisture intrusion
Damage from high winds, storms, or hail
Damaged flashing and sealant
Lack of regular maintenance and unfixed damage
To maximize the lifespan of your EIFS, it is crucial to hire an experienced and qualified professional for the installation. Additionally, regular maintenance—such as cleaning, repairing small cracks or blisters, and having the system professionally inspected—will help identify and resolve issues quickly, preventing long-term damage.
Rigid foam board insulation is one of the safest insulation materials for basement walls. The panels offer a moisture barrier to prevent mold and mildew build-up. At the same time, this material is also fire-resistant, so you don’t have to worry as much about a fire breaking out as you would with spray foam insulation.
Adding insulation to ceilings is an excellent way to increase the energy efficiency of your home. If your home's layout is such that you need insulation in the ceilings rather than in the roof, it's likely that at least some insulation already exists in the space. However, each additional inch of insulation you can add boosts the R-value by between 2.2 and 4.2.
