Many older homes in Northeastern Pennsylvania lack the insulation that newly built homes have today.
Other contractors may have told you it wasn’t possible to insulate your home due to the logistics involved, but we put the work into solving all your insulation problems.
Contact us by phone or online when you’re ready to insulate your home the right way.
Insulating Older Homes
Insulating older homes presents numerous challenges that include:
- Walls and wall cavities: it can be difficult to get insulation behind existing walls due to access and tight cavities.
- No vapor barriers: without proper vapor barriers, condensation could form inside your walls and stay there due to insulation. Over time, that moisture could form damaging mold.
- Obstructions: in older homes, wiring, plumbing, and plaster-and-lath walls can obstruct access to the cavities where we would add insulation.
- Attics: the attic spaces in certain homes might be small and tight, making adding insulation difficult.
- Ventilation: small areas such as crawlspaces may have issues with ventilation that could lead to moisture buildup when insulation is present.
How North East Industries Can Help
You need a team of skilled professionals to take on insulation projects in your home. The challenges we listed above could pose serious issues for some insulation contractors, but our installers are experts. We can devise appropriate insulation solutions for any style of home.
For example, where wall access complicates the process, we may find the best option is to spray retrofit foam insulation behind your walls to fill all the gaps. We could also attach foam board insulation to your home’s exterior walls under the siding if that suits the structure better.
