Improved Insulation, Caulking and Sealing

Make your home more energy efficient through improved insulation. Proper insulation of the attic, the walls of the house and the garage will reduce the amount of heating required inside the house during the winter months. Insulation conserves or keeps in heat and reduces energy bills during the cold winter seasons. Improper insulation lead to heat losses and higher energy costs.

Heat is also lost from your homes through cracks and crevices in the house. The cracks and crevices also let in cold air from outside and pulls down the interior temperature of your house leading to increased need for heating and increased energy bills. Openings at window and door seams and causes heat loss to the exterior and entry of cold air into the interior of the house. The seams need to be caulked and equiped with adequate weather strips. Caulking and weather-stripping doors and windows will keep the heat in when doors and windows are closed. Any cracks on the walls should also be sealed to prevent heat loss. Proper insulation can reduce your energy bill by as high as 15%.
