Spring is the season of change—don’t let poor insulation hold your home back.
Spring should bring comfort—but if your home still feels drafty, stuffy, or oddly humid, your insulation might not be doing its job.
We understand how frustrating it is to shut off your heating system, only to find yourself adjusting the thermostat from room to room. For homeowners throughout New Jersey and New York, these are the exact signs your home is under insulated.
Common Signs of Poor Insulation in the Spring
1. Your Attic Feels Like a Greenhouse
If your attic is already hot by mid-morning or freezing cold overnight, it’s a sign of poor insulation and ventilation. Without proper attic insulation, hot and cold air pass through easily—leading to uncomfortable temperatures and moisture buildup.
2. Certain Rooms Are Always Too Hot or Too Cold
Temperature swings between rooms often point to gaps in wall insulation. Rooms above garages or next to exterior walls are especially prone to being uncomfortable if insulation is missing or degraded.
3. Your Garage Makes the Rest of the House Feel Off
Is your garage already too warm or still cold after winter? That heat (or lack of it) transfers to nearby rooms, making it harder for your HVAC system to keep your home balanced. Proper garage insulation solves this by stabilizing shared walls and ceilings.
4. Your Crawlspace Feels Damp or Drafty
Crawlspaces are common sources of drafts, moisture, and mold. If yours isn’t properly sealed and insulated, it can lead to cold floors, poor air quality, and moisture damage in living areas above.
5. Your Energy Bills Don’t Make Sense
If your spring energy bills still feel like winter—or worse—your insulation may be failing silently behind the walls. It’s not just about comfort—it’s about efficiency
