Air Sealing in Montclair, NJ
Montclair has many established neighborhoods with older single-family homes of varied styles and sizes. Houses with complicated rooflines, additions and finished attics tend to have more places for air to leak than a simple box.
We walk the house from attic to basement and mark the leaks. The ceiling plane comes first, then knee walls, additions and the rim joist. We check combustion appliances before and after.

Additions and finished attics
Where an addition joins the original house, or an attic has been finished, framing gaps and knee walls are common leak paths. These are hard to see from the room, which is why we inspect from the attic side.
Cost
Air sealing alone is priced per home. Larger or more complicated houses cost more. Most take one day, and a few take two.
Air Sealing in Montclair: Common Questions
Why is my Montclair house drafty with insulation in the attic?
Insulation slows heat through material but does not stop air moving through gaps. Sealing the gaps is a separate job.
What does air sealing cost?
It depends on the size of the house, access and the number of leaks. The written, itemized quote comes from a free assessment.
Can you seal around additions?
Yes, where we can reach the joints from the attic or basement.
Is there a safety check?
We look at gas appliances before and after sealing and flag anything that needs attention.
