Insulation Before & After Photos

In Grantham, New Hampshire a customer was looking to insulate the Rim Joists of his basement and take care of a bad humidity problem.  He hired Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems to install a state-of-the-art SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to take care of the humidity.  The Sanidry will keep the basement at a perfect 55% humidity.  Northern Basement Systems sprayed the rim joists with closed-cell polyurethane foam.  The closed-cell foam creates a highly insulated building assembly that's also free of energy-wasting air leaks. Closed-cell is about 3-4 times as dense as open-cell foam, and it provides an R-value of 6-7 per inch.  

To help weatherize a basement in Harrisville, New Hampshire, Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems applied closed-cell polyurethane spray foam insulation.  The spray foam, applied to the entire rim joist of the basement,  carries an excellent R-Value of 6-7 per inch and provides a great vapor barrier.

The exposed foundation walls in this Elkins, New Hampshire, basement needed insulation before the space could move toward finishing. Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems installed Basement-to-Beautiful® insulated wall panels, providing continuous R-13 insulation and integrated framing in one basement-specific wall system.

This full-height walkout basement in East Haven, Vermont, had wood-framed exterior walls and uninsulated rim joists that allowed cold air to affect the space during Vermont winters. Our crew applied closed-cell spray foam throughout the rim joists and wood-framed basement walls to create a continuous layer of insulation and help make the basement and rooms above more comfortable.
