Insulation Air-Seals Attic Results in Lower Energy Bills and A More Comfortable Home in Duluth, MN

The owners of this home in Duluth, MN recently replaced their old roof that had snow melting constantly. Now that they have the new roof installed, they were interested in a more energy-efficient insulation solution to keep heat inside of their home. The owners reached out to DBS after being referred to us by a friend.

Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer visited the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, Henry educated the owners on the insulation solution offered by DBS.

Foreman Nick Woods II led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they air-sealed every gap in the attic with ZypFoam™ where air could leak from such as floorboards, light fixtures, and the entrance hatch. Then a layer of spray foam was sprayed onto the flooring to completely seal the flooring off before they covered the attic in 17" of blown-in Tru-Soft™ cellulose insulation. A benefit of insulation made from cellulose is that it is saturated with a borate solution for fire retardancy and also makes it resistant to mold and insects.

Now that the attic has been properly insulated, the homeowners will be able to relax comfortably as their homes will feel warmer while their energy bills decrease.

The owner of this home in Duluth, MN noticed that the stair-step crack in their basement had grown deeper over time. After seeing signs and trucks around town for DBS, the owners decided to reach out in hopes of finding a solution to their issue.

Design Specialist James Miller went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the owner. After a thorough inspection, he explained our push pier system to the homeowner and reassured them that the system would permanently stabilize their home.

Foreman Trevor Ingle led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they drove 4 push piers beneath the foundation of the home until they hit a more stable layer of soil, ensuring that the structure would not experience any further sinking or settling. The crew also sealed the crevice with NexusPro®, a silicone-based sealant. The home has been permanently stabilized, and each pier is backed with a 25-year warranty.

Now that the home has been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind knowing that they are safe in their home.
