Mentor, OH's Trusted Home Insulation Company

A homeowner in Mentor, OH had noticed that the temperature on the second floor was much different than on the first floor. Since the home was first built in 1976, they figured that it was caused by lack of insulation. They called Primary Home Improvements and was set up with a free in-home estimate. 

Kevin, the energy consultant, arrived to the home and began evaluating the walls and attic. He noticed that there was only R19 in the attic. This is far too low and did not resist unwanted heat flow in the attic. As far as the walls went, Kevin observed that the insulation in the walls had completely settled. He explained to the customer that whole home insulation would improve the temperature differentiation and save then on utility bills. The homeowner was then set up with an install date to get the work done. 

On the day of install, both the wall and attic crew worked to insulate the whole home. The wall crew went from the exterior and injected RetroFoam in all walls. RetroFoam expands in the wall cavity and fills up all the space. It then hardens and will never settle! The attic crew blew in high-quality fiberglass all over the attic floor to reach R49 value. This R-Value will make it so that outside air can't get through to the rest of the home. 

This easy 1-day installation created a comfortable and energy-efficient home for this customer! 

This customer in Mentor, OH had a couple trouble walls that she needed insulated in order to create a more comfortable home. She did some research and found that Primary Home Improvements was her trusted insulation expert. Our customer care representative set her up with a no-obligation estimate to find the right solutions. 

Bert, the energy consultant, arrived to the estimate and began assessing the trouble walls. He scanned them with the thermal gun and noticed that they were showing blue. This means that the walls were not insulated as they should be. This was leaving the home compromised to outside air. Bert explained that RetroFoam would work to insulate the walls. She was then set up with an install date.

On the day of install, the crew began insulating the walls. They first took a piece of siding of and then drilled a small hole between the studs. They injected RetroFoam in the entirety of the cavity. RetroFoam then hardens in the wall after 48 hours and leaves a fully insulated, draft-free space. Once finished, the installers made sure to put the siding back on carefully and then did a final walkthrough with the customer. 

This customer was so relived to have the trouble walls finally insulated!

This homeowner was looking for a solution to creating a more comfortable and energy-efficient home. They found that Primary Home Improvements was their local insulation expert and was set up with a free in-home estimate. 

Bert, the energy consultant, met with the customers and inspected their current insulation. What he found was that both the walls and attic had inadequate insulation. Since this particular home was built in 1954, the insulation was old and settled. Bert explained that Primary Home Improvements could insulate their whole entire home with blown-in fiberglass in the attic and RetroFoam injection foam in the walls. After a thorough explanation of the written quote, the customer was set up with a project date. 

On the day of the install, the crews arrived and began working to insulate the home. The attic crew began by feeding the high-powered machine with the fiberglass material and blew it all over the attic floor at R49 value. R49 allows the attic to function properly by resisting unwanted air infiltration. While this was happening, the wall crew was insulating the walls using RetroFoam. RetroFoam is a tripolymer resin that is injected from the exterior of the home. It fills the entire wall caviity with high R-Value insulation and gets into every nook and cranny. The best thing is there is no need to tear any walls down to the studs in order to insulate the walls! 

This customer was ecstatic to have their home insulated in an easy 1-day install!
