Insulation Services Photo Album: Insulating Yarmouth, Maine Basement

We recently helped homeowners in Yarmouth, Maine who wanted to insulate their basement to improve the comfort of their home. While giving a free estimate, the homeowners also pointed out an area where they felt their floors needed more support above. We installed Spray Foam insulation on the basement walls and rim joists. Spray Foam is water resistant so in addition to improving the energy efficiency, it also acts as a vapor barrier. Unlike traditional fiberglass insulation, Spray Foam is mold resistant, making it a great choice for basements. We installed a SmartJack where the floors needed added support. SmartJacks are steel beams that can hold 60,000 lbs each, and are custom fit to support and even lift the floors above.
