Services
Air Sealing
Air sealing eliminates gaps that cause energy loss equivalent to leaving a window open year-round. Our technicians identify leaks in attics, walls, and foundations using blower door tests. Combining this with insulation reduces heating and cooling costs while improving indoor air quality by preventing pollutant infiltration.
Insulation
We install cellulose and spray foam insulation to combat heat loss through roofs, which accounts for 70% of home energy waste. Our solutions adapt to new constructions and older homes, creating thermal barriers that lower utility bills by up to 25% while maintaining healthy indoor environments through proper moisture control.
Mold Remediation
Our EPA-certified team neutralizes mold and microbial growth using industry-standard protocols. We address underlying moisture issues to prevent recurrence, offering contaminated insulation removal and replacement. This process eliminates health risks from mycotoxins while restoring structural integrity through comprehensive remediation.
Ventilation
Proper attic ventilation prevents moisture buildup that causes mold and reduces cooling costs. We install continuous airflow systems with eave and roof vents, ensuring compliance with building codes. This maintains temperature stability and extends roof lifespan while improving indoor air quality through controlled air exchange.
Diagnostic Testing
We use infrared thermal imaging and blower door testing to identify hidden air leaks and insulation gaps. This data-driven approach pinpoints energy inefficiencies and moisture pathways, enabling targeted solutions. Diagnostic reports guide homeowners in prioritizing upgrades that maximize comfort and cost savings while addressing structural vulnerabilities.
Questions

Great service for improving attic insulation. Jim and his team provided excellent service, quality work and were very professional. Great value for the cost of service, including sealing of air gaps throughout the attic. Highly recommended, hopefully this review leads to a referral.

We hired Advanced Insulation Solutions to improve ventilation and improve climate control for our upper level. I wish we would have done it sooner.

Jim & his crew did a great job on our house. Our house is definitely a lot warmer & now cooler with all new insulation. I have noticed a big difference especially in our bedrooms.

I had a great experience with Jim and his team at AIS and would recommend to others. The process was professional from start to finish - great communication, fair pricing and showed up as scheduled. The team was friendly and professional in completing the work, and cleaned up well afterwards. It's been almost a year since we had cellulose insulation and vents installed in our 1890s home and have experienced good results - noticeable difference in maintaining temperature throughout home in both warm/cold weather conditions.

To say I am very impressed from bid to final product would be an understatement. Very knowledgeable, professional and reasonable. The house is much more comfortable. I wish we had done this long ago. I highly recommend them.

I recently moved into a new home and it was extremely cold and drafty. I called several insulation contractors but none were as thorough as advanced. Jim was extremely helpful and explained the whole process. He used a heat gun to find out cold spots and illustrated how we would benefit from air sealing. The night after the work, I could already tell the house was warmer and cozier. I would highly recommend them.
