"The owner met with me and explained the details of the project. He took time to consult the general contractor of the new log cabin to make sure he covers everything. The job was finished ahead of schedule. He had the best prices, quality of work and excellence of customer service. I was apprehensive because his prices were lower than other proposals but the quality of work speaks for itself. I am very happy I went with this company."

"Spray foamed my attic. I have a thermal camera and before the spray foam about half my attic was leaking. After none of it is. Even around recessed lights and bathroom fans. I was worried about getting spray foam after hearing about smells from improper mixes and curing temps but I didnâ t have any of that. No smell after about a day. I think itâ s safe to say the crew at Orr knows whatâ s up."

"Scott arrived punctually for our first meeting and thoughtfully and thoroughly analyzed our problem (mold on peak of cathedral ceiling).  He listened carefully to our thoughts and explained his analysis clearly and completely.  He provided us with examples of similar situations he had addressed, successfully, in the past. He also showed us photos of his previous work. He spent over an hour with us, answering all questions and outlining his processes.  

After we agreed to have him do the job, he provided an extensive written contract for the work.  Our lawyer reviewed the contract and made several suggestions.  Scott quickly adjusted the contract to address our lawyer's concerns.  He scheduled the work promptly and it was completed in the agreed upon time frame.  We asked for the new electrical circuit to be labelled, and Scott took care of this without additional reminders, although I don't believe this was part of his usual service. There were no add ons to the bill.

After the work, Scott responded to questions and promised referrals to mold remediation services if required.  We've called him several times with questions, and he has always responded promptly with useful answers.

We have been totally satisfied with Scott Knapp and Rfactor from start to finish and would recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation to anyone with a similar problem."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Hanging a thick blanket over your windows will help to keep the heat inside, but only a little. Covering the glass will also prevent the sunlight from getting in, which might actually decrease the efficiency of your window overall. If you get to the point where you’re hanging blankets over your window to keep warm, call in an expert to seal around your windows to prevent warm air from escaping. They may also recommend replacing old windows that aren’t as insulative as newer window technology. Sealing a window isn’t terribly expensive and can make a big difference.

Unfaced wall insulation is easier to cut and install, making it the better choice for a DIY project. It’s also more affordable. But if it’s unfaced, you’ll likely need to add a vapor barrier to reach your desired R-value and efficiency, as it doesn’t offer any moisture barrier.

Faced insulation uses paper or foil to create a built-in barrier and doesn’t require an extra step. It’s also more fire-resistant and safe. But it’s quite a bit more expensive and a little bit harder to work with as a DIYer.

To cover your HVAC ducts and air vents during construction, use plastic sheets or drop cloths secured with painter's tape. Be sure to cover all supply vents on your floors and walls, as well as the larger HVAC return vent, which is typically on the ceiling. While canvas drop cloths can also be used, they may not catch all the fine dust. It is crucial to shut off your HVAC system or at least the zone where construction is happening. Running the system with vents sealed can put significant strain on the blower motor and air handler. For additional dust containment, you can also hang plastic sheets over doorways to separate the construction area from the rest of your home.

The most insulative type of insulation for behind drywall is spray foam insulation, but this is the most expensive insulation available. The most common insulation—sometimes considered the best for the value you get for the money—is fiberglass roll or fiberglass batt insulation, which is significantly more affordable but also far less insulative. The best kind of insulation for your house will also vary based on the climate in your area, your budget, and more. A professional insulation company can help you decide which type is best for your home.

Pipes in your house can freeze after six hours or so if you lose power and temperatures are below freezing. You can prepare for potential power outages by winterizing your pipes with insulation. Also, whenever temperatures drop below 20 degrees Fahrenheit, turn your faucets on very low and leave them dripping until temperatures rise.
