A Dover homeowner, worried about radon in their basement, called Lawson Home Services. Our commitment to healthy homes and radon mitigation expertise made us their trusted partner in tackling this potential health hazard.
Our team conducted a comprehensive basement inspection, pinpointing possible radon entry points. We then presented a clear, detailed proposal outlining the recommended mitigation system. Confident in our experience and solution, the homeowner approved the project.
Lawson Home Services prioritizes meticulous work. Our certified installers meticulously installed the system for optimal performance and long-term effectiveness. This included strategically placed pipes, a powerful yet energy-efficient radon fan, and a manometer for ongoing monitoring.
Following installation, we conducted a short-term radon test. The results were fantastic!
This homeowner can now breathe easy, knowing their basement is safe from high radon levels. Lawson Home Services is proud to help families create healthy and secure living spaces.
This Dover, DE home had a weathered crawlspace entrance that allowed for air and moisture to enter into the home through the dirt crawlspace. This helped to reduce the amount of energy used to heat and cool the home. A CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation would help to further eliminate dust, allergens, moisture, bugs, and microbial growth from entering into the home.
Even though this attic appears to be well insulated the homeowners still dealt with uncomfortable conditions in their home year round. After meeting with one of our Certified Home Comfort Specialists, these homeowners decided to upgrade their attic with our SilverGlo rigid foam board insulation. Infused with graphite in the foam that acts as tiny heat reflectors, the R-value of SilverGlo is 24% higher than standard EPS foam making the home that much more comfortable and efficient. Just so the insulation doesn't have to do all of the work alone, SilverGlo has radiant barrier on both sides which reflect heat taking it's efficiency level even higher.
Are all of your home's exhaust fans properly vented? These Dover, DE homeowners complained of cold floors. Part of the issue stemmed from an under-insulated cantilever. While preparing to replace the standard batted fiberglass with a much more energy efficient rigid foam board insulation with radiant barrier named SilverGlo, our crew discovered a bathroom exhaust duct which had never been properly vented. If left alone the unvented exhaust could have caused these homeowners grief in the future. Our crew not only replaced their old insulation with the state of the art SilverGlo, but they also created a way for the exhaust to be properly vented. A vent cover was attached to the soffit that lined up perfectly with the exhaust duct when put back into place.
The owners of this Dover, DE home dealt with uncomfortable conditions in their home even though it would seem that they had enough insulation. The insulation fills the cavities in walls so that must be the highest R-Value, right? Wrong! Standard batted fiberglass with an R-Value of 19 is about 6.5" thick. Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva has installed SilverGlo rigid foam board insulation that is just 4" thick with a higher R-Value and comes complete with radiant barrier on both sides to deflect direct heat off of the home while preventing conditioned air inside from escaping resulting in a more comfortable and energy efficient home.
