Before our team of crawlspace insulators arrived, this crawlspace was cold, damp, and affecting the temperatures of the floors above! When our experts arrived, they first began with removing the plastic that was once used to protect the crawlspace flooring and ceiling from water and any temperature-affecting leaky or unwanted air. They then insulated the exposed exterior walls with Foamax boards which were air-sealed with ZypFoam. Once the walls were insulated, our experts were then ready to encapsulate the crawlspace and diminish water mitigation into the area. Our experts installed our GoldSeal Encapsulation System by first laying down a drainage matt that was secured by vapor barrier tape, they then completed the system by securing a vapor barrier on top with vapor barrier tape. The combination of these creates an impenetrable space against any outside elements and water! This crawlspace will no longer affect the temperature of the floors above!

Job Stories From New Paltz, NY
Weatherization works wonders in New Paltz, NY

This home owner reached out to us initially with the goal of weatherizing this home. We were happy to help! First, we had our expert home comfort specialist head to the home to perform a completely free and no obligation home comfort evaluation. Upon arrival our Home Comfort Specialist was able to pinpoint the areas that were the most inefficient and overall low performing making it hard to conserve on energy. 

 

Next, this home owner could absolutely see how and why we were the experts she needed! Our home comfort specialist provided the correct solution to achieve energy efficiency so they could be properly weatherized and save on energy costs all year round right here in the Hudson Valley. 

 

Once we got her project scheduled, our amazing install crew got to work quickly! They started by removing all old insulation. Then, they installed baffles on the slopes of the knee-wall for proper and positive air movement throughout this small space. Next, they installed rulers so they can have an accurate read on the correct amount of cellulose they will later blow in. After, they properly air sealed with Zyp foam and installed our reflective, code compliant, Silver Glo rigid foam boards then lastly, blew in our fluffy, efficient, and recycled material called blown-in cellulose in the knee-walls. This is a top performing product loved by home owners everywhere. To properly air seal the attic hatch and successfully achieve a proper thermal envelope, we installed a David Lewis Hatch Cover which is sealed and form fitted to hug the attic hatch correctly. Our team then worked on the larger overhead attic space which was much larger. They removed any old, wet, and damaged inefficient fiberglass. Then, they vacuumed the space to make sure it was extra clean to prep for the air sealing. They air sealed with Zyp Foam and installed 4in Silver Glo board to achieve the super platform deck so the space could be well insulated but still used for storage! Lastly our amazing install team put down the plywood over the air sealed and insulated attic deck. 

 

This homeowner is now happy and on their way to a more energy and cost efficient home!

No More Freezing Cold Floors for this Family in New Paltz, NY!

We sent our team of expert crawlspace insulators to this home in New Paltz, NY to help fix this family that was suffering from freezing cold floors! When our home comfort specialist, Charlie went to the home to provide a home comfort evaluation, he found that the exposed exterior walls and crawlspace floors were both uninsulated and without any protection against the outside elements. The combination of both of these resulted in the family feeling discomfort when walking on the floors above the crawlspace area. 

 

Our team of experts was quick to arrive at the home and help this family and restore their peace of mind! Our experts first began with insulating the exposed exterior walls with Foamax boards which were then air-sealed with ZypFoam and further sealed with barrier tape on top of the air-sealing. Our team then encapsulated the crawlspace with our GoldSeal encapsulation system! Our team installed the system by first laying down a drainage matt that was secured with vapor barrier tape and then completed the system by securing our GoldSeal vapor barrier on top with vapor barrier tape. The combination of both the drainage matt and vapor barrier creates an impenetrable space against any water mitigation or outside elements that could get into the space and affect the overall temperature. The combination of both insulating the exposed exterior walls and encapsulating the crawlspace floor will fix the problem of discomfort for the family. No more cold floors for this family!

Warm, Fluffy Cellulose in New Paltz, NY

When this homeowner called us here at Global Dwelling, he knew that his attic needed an insulation upgrade. He told us here that he was receiving outrageous energy bills and wanted a solution that would fix this problem. When we sent our home comfort specialist, Charlie Tadduni to the home, Charlie found that the attic did indeed have an insulation method that needed to be removed and upgraded. 

 

When our team of attic insulators arrived at the home, they first started with removing and properly disposing of all of the old insulation in the attic. Once our experts cleared the space, they were then ready to air-seal the attic with ZypFoam. Our experts air-seal the attic because the easily accessible air penetrations in the space allow uncontrollable air into the attic space which then affects the overall temperature of the space, resulting in an uncomfortable home. Once our team was completed with the attic air-sealing, they were then ready to insulate this home with a warm fluffy blanket of TruSoft cellulose! Our team blew in up to 18 inches of cellulose which will settle at 16 inches and insulate the home to an R-value of 60. This home will no longer suffer from energy inefficiency, which will no longer result in high-cost energy bills!

Making Floors in New Paltz, NY Warmer!

Our goal at this home in New Paltz, NY was to restore peace of mind to the homeowners by upgrading the insulation in their crawlspace. When Mr. A contacted us here at Global Dwelling, he said that he was experiencing cold floors that caused a lot of discomfort for him and his family. Our specialist found that the best way to fix this problem was to insulate the crawlspace with our Foamax rigid foam board and air seal. 

 

When our experts first arrived at this home, they began with removing and disposing of the old batt insulation in the crawlspace ceiling. Once removed, our experts insulated the rim joists with SilverGlo and air-sealed them with ZypFoam. Insulating with SilverGlo and air-sealing ZypFoam thoroughly ensures that there would no longer be any air penetrations in the space that caused the cold drafty floors above. Our team of crawlspace insulation experts then insulated the walls by using Foamax boards. They secured the boards and then air-sealed them with ZypFoam, which then was further sealed with vapor barrier tape. After the arrival of our experts, Mr. A and his family will no longer suffer from cold drafty floors! 

Making Rooms Warmer in New Paltz, NY!

We sent our expert team of insulators to this home in New Paltz, NY to help restore peace of mind for this homeowner. Mrs. P told our specialist, Lukas, that she was experiencing cold inconsistent temperatures in some of the rooms upstairs of her home. Our team of insulation contractors was quick to arrive at this home and help Mrs. P!

 

Prior to the arrival of our team, this attic was poorly insulated and did not have any proper air-sealing, resulting in the attic affecting the rooms below. Our team first started by removing any of the old insulation that was on the flooring of the attic space and made sure the area was clear of any debris as well. Our team then air-sealed the attic with ZypFoam, to thoroughly seal off any easily accessible air penetrations. The attic was then ready to be installed with our premier method of insulation, blown-in cellulose! Our method will insulate this home up to an R-value of 60 and provide energy efficiency for the home. Our experts blew in up to 18 inches of cellulose which will settle to 16 inches and help restore peace of mind for Mrs. P.

Making Floors Comfortable in New Paltz, NY

Before the arrival of our experts, Mrs. F was suffering from freezing cold floors in her home. She called us here at Global Dwelling to find peace of mind for this upcoming cold season. We sent one of our highly trained home comfort specialist to provide the best possible solution for Mrs. F's unique home. When evaluating the home, our specialist found that Mrs. F's crawlspace ceiling was not properly insulated, leaving air penetrations to be very exposed. The easily accessible air penetrations allowed leaky or unwanted air to make the crawlspace unbearably cold which became a direct link to the freezing cold floors above. 

 

Our team of insulation experts was quick to arrive at Mrs. F's home and help restore her peace of mind. Our experts began by installing SilverGlo rigid foam boards in the rim joists of the crawlspace. Once installed, our experts then air-sealed them with ZypFoam to thoroughly enclose all of the once easily accessible air penetrations! Once finished, Mrs. F said she felt an almost immediate difference in the temperature of her floors and said that she was prepared for this winter! 

No More Inconsistent Temperatures for Home in New Paltz, NY!

These homeowners were tired of feeling uncomfortable in their own home. They complained that every winter their floors were freezing cold and seemed to never heat up no matter how many space heaters they put in their home. We sent one of our highly trained home comfort specialist to their home to see how we could best improve their home and restore their peace of mind. Our specialist found that the best possible solution for the homeowner was to insulate the rim joists in their crawlspace as well as encapsulate the space to protect it against the outside elements! 

 

Our team first started with clearing out the old existing insulation that was in the rim joists and cleared out any remaining insulation in the crawlspace and debris on the crawlspace floor. Our team of experts then installed SilverGlo in the rim joists and air-sealed them with ZypFoam. Once the rim joists were properly insulated and air-sealed, it was time for our experts to install our encapsulation system with GoldSeal! Our experts completed this system by first laying down a drainage matt that was sealed with vapor barrier tape. Our experts then laid our GoldSeal vapor barrier that was secured to the drainage matt with vapor barrier tape. The combination of both of these creates an impenetrable space for outside elements to affect the space! 

Helping These Homeowners in New Paltz, NY!

Prior to the arrival of our insulation experts, these homeowners were concerned with how they could best improve their home's energy efficiency. The homeowner, Mr. H told us that he knew that something was wrong with his home because it felt as though his heat was always running. We sent one of our highly trained and experienced home comfort specialist to his home in order to find which insulation method we provide would best suit his unique home. Our specialist found that Mr. H's attic was not properly insulated and did not have any type of air sealing, which allowed leaky and unwanted air to affect the overall performance of the attic! 

 

Our team was quick to arrive and upgrade the insulation method in Mr. H's attic! They first began by removing all of the old batt fiberglass insulation that was previously used to insulate the home. Once they removed and disposed of all of the old insulation, our experts were then ready to air-seal the attic! Our team of experts used ZypFoam to thoroughly ensure that all of the once easily accessible air penetrations in the space were sealed off. Once the attic air-sealing was completed, our experts then insulated the space with our TruSoft cellulose! They blew in up to 18 inches of cellulose which will settle to 16 inches and insulate the home up to an R-value of 60! 

 

Our premier method was great because not only will it help lower the cost of the energy bills, but it will also improve the home's overall performance with its effectiveness of energy efficiency! 

Dense Packing in New Paltz, NY!

Mr. T called us here at Global Dwelling looking for a solution on how he could make the rooms above his porch warmer during the cold winter season. We sent one of our highly trained home comfort specialists to evaluate the space and provide the best possible solution in order to achieve comfort in his livable space prior to the harsh cold winter months approaching. Our home comfort specialist provided a solution by insulating and air-sealing the floors beneath. Our insulation contractors first installed SilverGlo boards underneath all of the exposed floors. Our experts then secured the boards to the floor, then left open a small point of access so they could dense pack behind the SilverGlo. The dense packing adds R-value as well as air seals. Air sealing the penetrable areas will diminish unwanted airflow to ensure a great home performance.  We were more than happy to help Mr. T and make sure his floors weren't freezing this winter! 

No More Uneven Temperatures for Home in New Paltz, NY!

When our home comfort specialists arrived at this home to evaluate and provide a solution to the homeowner's discomfort, they noticed immediately that the home was underperforming. The living area and the kitchen felt as though they had two different temperatures and when they went into the attic space, they realized that it was the direct link to the temperature issues in the house. The space was insulated with old batt fiberglass insulation that was no longer providing any R-value for the home. Our home comfort specialists gave the best solution in order to fix the uncomfortable home and then we sent our home attic insulation contractors to the home immediately! 

 

Our home attic insulation contractors were quick to arrive at the home and begin the insulation upgrade. Our first step was to remove all of the nasty old batt fiberglass insulation that was previously installed. Once the removal process was completed, our experts then thoroughly air-sealed the entire space with ZypFoam. This ensures that all of the once easy and accessible air penetrations were closed off from leaky or unwanted air. Once the air-sealing was completed, our experts were then ready to insulate with our TruSoft cellulose, they blew in up to 18 inches which will then settle to 16 inches and insulate the space up to an R-value of 60! 

 

Our method will not only warm the house and keep the desired temperature, but it will also help the home become cost-effective and energy-efficient once again. No more uneven temperatures and high-cost energy bills for these homeowners! 

No More Uncomfortable Home for Mr. L!

Mr. L called us here at Global Dwelling with questions on how he could improve the energy efficiency of his attic space, so we sent one of our highly trained home comfort specialists to provide a home energy audit and find a solution to his concerns. Upon the evaluation, our home comfort specialist found that the home was underperforming because the attic was poorly insulated with old batt fiberglass insulation. 

 

We were quick to send our expert team of insulation contractors to the home and fix the problems that were making it uncomfortable. The first step in our process was to get rid of all of the fiberglass insulation in the area so that our experts could do air-sealing in the attic. Once all of the nasty fiberglass was out of the space our attic insulation contractors then went in and thoroughly air-sealed with ZypFoam. We use ZypFoam to complete this process because we like to ensure that all of the easily accessible air penetrations won't let any leaky or unwanted air pass through easily anymore once the blanket of cellulose is laid down. With the air-sealing completed, our expert insulation contractors insulated the attic space with 18 inches of blown-in cellulose, which means this attic was insulated up to an R-value of 60!

 

Safe to say Mr. L was more than happy he chose us to be the best insulation contractors to make his home more energy efficient and cost-effective! 

Why Did Mr. C Choose Us?

Mr. C called us here with concerns about how he could upgrade the current insulation method he had in his attic space. We sent one of our highly trained home comfort specialists to his home to run a home energy audit to find all of the problem areas in the attic space. Not only did our expert insulation contractor find that there was old batt fiberglass insulation in the area, but they also found that the space was not properly air-sealed. The area not being properly air-sealed was becoming a very big problem for this space, it was allowing for any and all unwanted and leaky air to easily pass through the area. 

 

Our expert insulation contractors were quick to upgrade this home's overall energy efficiency and performance! They first started by removing all of the old insulation in the area and properly disposing of it. Our experts then completed the most important part of our attic insulation process, air-sealing! We do our attic air-sealing by using ZypFoam to seal and close all of the easily accessible air penetration points so that they no longer become a direct link to the home's energy inefficiency problems. Lastly, our home insulation contractors blew in 18 inches of our TruSoft cellulose to reach an R-value of 60! 

 

The homeowners were more than happy that they chose the best attic insulation contractors to upgrade their attic space! 

Reducing High Energy Bills for Mr. P!

Prior to the arrival of our team of expert insulators, Mr. P was having some concerns with the overall performance of his home. He wanted one of our home comfort specialists to go out to his home to perform a very thorough evaluation of his home to provide solutions to his home's performance problems and that's just what we did! We sent one of our highly trained and experienced home comfort specialists to perform a home comfort evaluation to find out why Mr. P's home was underperforming and becoming energy inefficient. During the evaluation, it was discovered that there was old batt fiberglass insulation in the attic space that was becoming the direct cause of the inefficiency. 

 

The first step after the evaluation our team of expert insulators did was to remove and dispose of all of the old fiberglass insulation. They then went and air-sealed the space with ZypFoam to ensure that the space was thoroughly sealed from any and all possible air penetrations. No More unwanted or leaky air! Our experts then went and properly insulated the space with our warming and fluffy blown-in cellulose! Our premier method of insulation is known to be both energy-efficient and cost-effective and insulates up to an R-Value of 60!
