Second to the attic, the basement is one of the biggest opportunities to make your home more comfortable and efficient. By sealing and insulating your basement, you can prevent cold floors and reduce drafts from below that might be making your home uncomfortable. Sealing air leaks and adding insulation can also help eliminate moisture and mold issues in the basement.

You may already have fiberglass batts installed between your basement ceiling joists. But basement ceiling insulation only insulates the upstairs space; it does nothing to make your basement more comfortable. If you’d like to transform an underused basement, insulation upgrades are a great starting point.
It's critical to seal and insulate the outer edge of the house framing (or rim joist).
The edge of the house where the floor framing rests on the foundation is a major source of air leakage and energy loss. It’s especially severe where plumbing, wiring and dryer vents penetrate to the exterior. We eliminate this problem by sealing and insulating the rim joist.
Rigid foam insulation is best for your basement’s concrete walls. Unlike fiberglass batts, rigid foam wall insulation won’t absorb water or be damaged by it. Rigid foam also won't compress, fall out of place or lose R-value. We recommend Foamax® wall insulation. These innovative panels are sized for typical basement walls and each panel comes with built-in wiring channels and integral steel flanges for attaching wallboard.
ThermalDry insulated floor decking for basements.
If you are finishing your basement or converting your garage into living space, it's best to insulate the concrete floor before adding finished flooring. Many remodelers recommend installing a ply-wood subfloor with a layer of rigid foam insulation. The problem with this is water vapor and plumbing leaks can cause the wood sub-floor to rot and mold to grow underneath. You'll smell the mold in your basement.
To insulate a basement floor or concrete slab, we use ThermalDry Insulated Floor Decking™. This innovative product is made with high-performance foam insulation that keeps your floor warm and there is no organic material for mold to grow on. If you want the look of hardwood flooring in your basement, we offer a product called ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring, which provides a thermal break for warmer floors and won't be ruined by moisture or mold.
