Insulation without air sealing is like wearing a warm coat full of holes. Banks grew quickly in the 2000s after decades as a small town, so the city has a genuine mix of older and newer homes, each with its own potential weak points in the building envelope. A house can look well maintained on the outside while still losing a lot of heat through gaps that were never sealed in the first place.
What that means day to day: rooms that never quite match the thermostat, drafts around older windows and doors, and a heating system working harder than it should. Adding insulation without addressing air sealing underneath it rarely solves the problem on its own. We treat the two as one job because that’s how building science works.
Our crews handle attic insulation (blown-in cellulose or spray foam, depending on the space), wall cavity insulation, floor and crawlspace insulation, crawlspace encapsulation where moisture is a factor, and air sealing around outlets, windows, plumbing penetrations, and ductwork. We diagnose before we recommend: a blower door test measures how much air your house is actually losing, and infrared imaging shows exactly where insulation is missing or has settled over time.
Energy Trust of Oregon offers per-square-foot incentives for attic, wall, and floor insulation to qualifying utility customers, and enhanced or no-cost weatherization programs are sometimes available for income-qualified or rental households. We’ll walk you through what you qualify for during your assessment.
We’re a licensed Oregon contractor (CCB #245539) that treats insulation and air sealing as building science, not a one-afternoon add-on. In a small town with a real mix of housing ages, matching the work to the house you actually have is what lowers your bills.
