Pavel L. reached out to Mid-State Home Services because he was experiencing uncomfortable temperatures in some of the bedrooms in his Columbus, OH residence. After a thorough inspection by our Home Comfort Specialist, Joe Dials, it was discovered that the discomfort was caused by outdated batt insulation in the cantilever beneath the second-floor bedrooms. We replaced the old insulation with our Dense Packed TruSolf Cellulose, a highly effective solution for adding insulation to existing walls.

This client in Columbus, OH was concerned about keeping their house cool this summer, especially after a sweltering experience last year. They reached out to Mid-State Home Services to find a solution.

We conducted an energy audit to identify the major problem areas, and the attic stood out as a significant issue. It had insufficient insulation, no air sealing, and exposed ducts. This setup allowed hot air to leak into the house during summer, making it hard to cool down. The uncovered ducts exacerbated the problem by heating the cold air passing through them.

To address this, we took several steps. First, we covered the ducts with closed-cell cellulose spray foam and built insulation dams around them for easy access. Next, we air-sealed the attic by sealing off any gaps and cracks with foam board and caulk. Finally, we applied cellulose insulation.

Now, our client can look forward to a cool, comfortable summer without worrying about excessive heat or wasting money on cooling.

A homeowner concerned about high heating bills and chilly drafts during the winter reached out to Mid-State Home Services for an energy efficiency consultation. They requested an estimate for an insulation audit and advice on how to make their home more comfortable.

Our team of insulation experts conducted a comprehensive energy assessment, identifying key areas of energy loss, including insufficient attic insulation, air leaks around windows and doors, and gaps in the crawl space. After reviewing the findings with the homeowner, we recommended several upgrades, including air sealing, attic insulation, and encapsulating the crawl space to address the drafts and improve overall energy efficiency.

The homeowner decided to move forward with our recommendations, starting with blown-in cellulose insulation for the attic and spray foam insulation in the crawl space.

With their home now energy-efficient, they are looking forward to lower utility bills and cozier winters ahead.

A homeowner contacted Mid-State Home Services after noticing cold drafts and uneven temperatures in their home following a recent remodel. During the renovation, some areas of the home were left partially insulated, resulting in energy loss and discomfort, especially during the colder months.

Our team conducted a thorough inspection of the home to identify the uninsulated and poorly insulated areas. We found several gaps in the attic, exterior walls, and around newly added fixtures. To resolve the issue, we recommended a combination of blown-in cellulose insulation for the attic, spray foam insulation to seal air leaks, and dense-pack insulation for the walls.

A homeowner reached out to Mid-State Home Services after struggling with cold spots throughout their home and inconsistent temperatures between rooms. The heating system was working overtime, but certain areas of the house remained chilly and uncomfortable, especially during the winter.

Our team conducted an inspection to identify the root causes of the temperature inconsistencies. We found inadequate insulation in the attic and walls, along with air leaks around windows, doors, and in the crawl space. These gaps were allowing warm air to escape and cold drafts to enter, making it difficult for the HVAC system to maintain a consistent temperature.

To address these issues, we installed blown-in cellulose insulation in the attic to improve thermal performance and added dense-pack insulation to the walls. We also air-sealed gaps around windows, doors, and in the crawl space, and installed a CleanSpace encapsulation system to further enhance energy efficiency.

After the upgrades, the homeowner was amazed at how much warmer and more comfortable their home felt. The temperature was now consistent throughout the house, and their HVAC system no longer had to work as hard to keep up. They were thrilled with the results and appreciated the energy savings they began to notice almost immediately.

A homeowner contacted Mid-State Home Services with concerns about their upstairs rooms, which were consistently 10 degrees warmer than the rest of the house. Despite running the HVAC system frequently, the upstairs area remained uncomfortably hot, and the homeowner was eager to pinpoint the issue and find a solution.

Our team conducted a comprehensive inspection of the home, focusing on potential causes of the uneven temperatures. We found that the problem stemmed from two key areas: poorly insulated attic spaces above the upstairs rooms and issues with the home’s ductwork. The attic lacked sufficient insulation, allowing heat to transfer into the upstairs rooms, while the ductwork supplying the upper floor was inefficiently routed and had leaks that reduced airflow.

To address these issues, we upgraded the attic insulation with blown-in cellulose to create a thermal barrier and installed radiant barriers to reflect excess heat. For the ductwork, we sealed existing leaks and adjusted the system layout to ensure balanced airflow throughout the upstairs.

This homeowner noticed that snow was melting much faster on their roof compared to their detached garage and neighboring houses. This is a common sign of poor attic insulation, allowing heat to escape and warm the roof from the inside. Not only does this lead to higher energy bills, but it also increases the risk of ice dams, which can cause damage to the roof and gutters. Our team at Mid-State Home Services assessed the attic and recommended an insulation upgrade to prevent heat loss. We installed SilverGlo™ EPS foam insulation panels, which create a thermal barrier and keep warm air inside the home where it belongs. Additionally, we air-sealed gaps and leaks to maximize energy efficiency. Now, the homeowner can enjoy a more comfortable home, lower heating costs, and a properly insulated attic. With this upgrade, snow will melt at a natural rate, reducing the risk of ice dams and improving overall home efficiency.

A homeowner reached out while converting their garage into a woodworking shop and wanted to keep the space comfortable year-round. Our team recommended a combination of rigid SilverGlo™ insulation and comprehensive air sealing to maintain consistent indoor temperatures regardless of the season.

The finished space is now draft-free, energy efficient, and perfect for projects in any season. 

Owners of an older home contacted us due to high heating and cooling costs and noticeable drafts. Given the home's age, we recommended dense-packed cellulose insulation for the exterior walls. This method involves blowing cellulose insulation into wall cavities under pressure, significantly reducing air infiltration and enhancing thermal performance.

These improvements led to a more comfortable indoor environment and substantial energy savings, all while preserving the home's historic character

This homeowner reached out after discovering that their newly built 2024 townhouse had only 6 inches of attic insulation, far below the recommended 14 inches for Ohio.

Our team at Mid-State Home Services performed a thorough inspection and confirmed that the existing insulation was insufficient. To fix the issue, we recommended adding blown-in TruSoft cellulose insulation to bring the attic up to the proper R-value. We also performed air sealing throughout the attic space to close off leaks and maximize efficiency.

Now, their second floor holds heat much better, and the entire home is more comfortable and energy-efficient. If your new build isn’t living up to energy expectations, we’re here to help—contact Mid-State Home Services today for a free insulation estimate!
