Home Environment Solutions Before & After Photos

Kelly called form Pittsburgh Pa saying that her upstairs seems to never be cool in the summer and never really warm in the winter. She wants to know what Home Environment Solutions can do to make her upstairs more comfortable year round. We set her an appointment for Russell to preform a free Home Energy Audit. When Russ arrived he found old batt insulation covered in rodent dropping, unsealed penetrations and scuttle cover. 

We sent our insulation team and they  prepared the attic for installation of fresh, clean insulation.

Bill in Pittsburg, PA was having trouble with the gutters on his home. The screens he had on his gutters were not working. Water was overflowing and the gutters were still getting clogged. The Gutter Shutter by Home Environment Solutions Gutter Shutter team showed up and removed the old screens and installed new Gutter Guards on the home's existing gutter system. The new Gutter Guards are letting water drain correctly while keeping leaves and debris out.  

Customer had mold in the attic of his Finleyville, PA home.    He contacted Home Environment Solutions to see how they could help.   Russ and the customer sat down and came up with the solution.

The HES team removed the old pressed board, the fiberglass bat insulation and the old blown in cellulose.   The whole area was dried using an air scrubber and dehumidifiers.  The mold was then treated and HEPA vacuumed.  

After the mold problem was removed Home Environment Solutions then air sealed and Insulated the attic.
