Resilient Retrofit technician installing blown-in insulation in an attic as part of a whole home energy retrofit.

Insulation without air sealing is like wearing a warm coat full of holes. That’s especially true in a city with Gresham’s weather pattern, cool and damp for a good stretch of the year, where a poorly sealed house doesn’t just waste energy, it feels drafty and uneven no matter how hard the furnace works.

What that means day to day: rooms that never quite match the thermostat, drafts around older windows and doors in homes near Historic Southeast and Central City, 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.

What we do

Resilient Retrofit technician installing attic insulation with professional equipment for improved home energy efficiency.

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.

What Gresham homeowners typically notice afterward

  • Fewer drafts and more even temperatures room to room
  • Energy bills reduced by 20 to 40% in many cases
  • A quieter house, since a sealed envelope also blocks outside noise
  • Less strain on your existing HVAC system
  • Better moisture control in crawlspaces and attics, which matters in a climate this wet

Incentives

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.
