Insulation Services in Clarks Summit, PA
North East Industries provides residential and commercial insulation in Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania and the broader Abington area. As the most active new construction market in Lackawanna County, Clarks Summit and surrounding South Abington Township have a different insulation profile than the older urban communities to the south — newer homes built to modern codes, active residential development, and a mix of established neighborhoods with homes spanning the last 50 years. Our base in Greenfield Township puts us just minutes from Clarks Summit, making it one of our most regularly served communities.

Clarks Summit's Housing Profile
Unlike Scranton and Dunmore, where the primary insulation challenge is bringing pre-1950 housing up to modern standards, Clarks Summit's housing stock spans a much wider range. The borough and surrounding South Abington Township include:
- New construction — Clarks Summit and surrounding Abington townships are among the most active new home building markets in the region. Builders here need a reliable insulation partner who meets PA's 2018 IECC Climate Zone 5 requirements and provides timely installation that keeps construction schedules on track.
- 1970s–1990s homes — A large share of Clarks Summit's established neighborhoods were developed in this era. These homes often have fiberglass batts that have compressed, settled, or become moisture-damaged over time, bringing effective R-values well below their original rating. Attic top-ups and rim joist spray foam deliver fast improvement.
- Older borough housing — Clarks Summit Borough itself has older residential stock closer to its historic commercial core that benefits from the same retrofit approach as other established Lackawanna County communities.
Our Insulation Services in Clarks Summit
New Construction Insulation — Clarks Summit
We partner with home builders active in Clarks Summit, South Abington Township, North Abington Township, and surrounding Lackawanna County growth areas. Full coordination with construction schedules, Climate Zone 5 code compliance, and permit documentation at every project. We also serve builders working in the nearby Factoryville/Wyoming County border area.
Spray Foam Insulation — Clarks Summit
Closed-cell spray foam for Clarks Summit rim joists, crawlspaces, and attic knee walls. For newer Abington-area homes with crawlspaces — common in the township's split-level and ranch developments — spray foam under the floor deck eliminates the cold floors that persist even in otherwise well-insulated homes.
Cellulose Insulation — Clarks Summit
Blown-in cellulose to upgrade attic R-values in Clarks Summit's 1970s and 1980s homes. Most homes from this era have R-19 to R-30 in the attic — well below the Climate Zone 5 minimum of R-49. Blown cellulose installed over existing insulation brings these homes to code efficiently.
Blower Door Testing — Clarks Summit
Required for new construction under Pennsylvania's 2018 IECC, and valuable as a diagnostic for older Clarks Summit homes before retrofit insulation work. We perform blower door testing as a standalone service and as part of larger insulation projects throughout the Abington area.
