Insulation in Springfield, NJ

Insulating homes and buildings in Springfield

Springfield's mix of mid-century homes and newer construction means we do a lot of renovation-driven work here rather than straight retrofit. Garage conversions, bonus rooms over garages, finished basements and additions all need insulation specified correctly at the framing stage — and getting it wrong is expensive to correct after drywall.

Rooms above garages are the single most common comfort complaint we hear in Springfield. The floor of that room sits over an unconditioned, often uninsulated garage ceiling, and the cantilevered edges are usually completely open to outside air. Spray foaming the garage ceiling and sealing the cantilever is what makes that room match the rest of the house.

For finished basements we specify closed cell foam against the foundation wall rather than framing with fiberglass. It handles the moisture that concrete and block walls inevitably carry, and it does not give mold anything to grow on — a distinction that matters a great deal five years after the basement is finished.
