Rabbit River

Farms and newer homes

Older farmhouses need rim joist foam, attic sealing and walls. Newer homes need attic sealing and bonus room work. Barns and shops get closed-cell foam.

Old farmhouses

Farmhouses around Hamilton were often added onto over generations, so one house may have a stone cellar, a crawl space under a later kitchen and a block basement under a newer wing. Each part needs its own approach. We look at every section and list each one on the quote, with closed-cell foam on the rim and foundation walls and a vapor barrier in any crawl space.

Code targets

The Hamilton area is in Climate Zone 5A. For older farmhouses, the DOE's R-60 target for an attic with little insulation is a good goal, along with closed-cell foam on the rim joist. Newer homes from the 1990s and 2000s usually have code-level attic insulation, so the gains there come from sealing the hatch, recessed lights, bonus room kneewalls and the floor over the garage. We measure attic depth in several places, not just at the hatch, because insulation is often thin near the eaves and around the air handler. The quote lists each area separately with its own price so you can decide what to do first.
