Services
Home Insulation
Zerodrafts home insulation services seal air leaks and improve energy efficiency using spray foam, cellulose, and advanced air-sealing techniques. Proper insulation reduces heating and cooling costs by maintaining consistent indoor temperatures. Our solutions address attics, walls, crawl spaces, and basements for year-round comfort.
Energy Audit
Our free home energy audits identify energy loss sources through blower door tests, thermal imaging, and visual inspections. Certified technicians assess insulation levels, air infiltration, and HVAC efficiency to create customized savings plans. The audit helps qualify homeowners for state incentives and rebates.
Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation creates an airtight barrier in walls, attics, and crawl spaces, preventing drafts and moisture infiltration. Zerodrafts EPA-certified installers apply closed-cell foam for superior R-values and structural reinforcement. This solution reduces energy use and lowers utility bills by up to 40%.
Attic Insulation
Proper attic insulation prevents heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Zerodraft adds cellulose or spray foam to meet R-49 standards, reducing ice dams and HVAC strain. Our installations improve indoor comfort and qualify for NYSERDA rebates.
Crawl Space Insulation
Crawl space insulation with spray foam or vapor barriers stops cold air infiltration and moisture buildup. Zerodrafts sealed solutions protect against mold, pests, and energy loss. This service enhances floor comfort and lowers heating costs in winter months.

Wish I could do less then one star. Just saw their trump commercial and it was pathetic not even close to funny and I wouldn't work with these clowns even if I was getting paid. You do realize by pandering to one side of politics you are leaving out the other half. I hope this costs you business.

Report
Our family Had an Energy audit, foam insulation and new window installation
All in all the project went okay.
However, There is a lack of communication from the company to the customer.
Foam Insulation
Before the first employee was on the job I stated I was not available on a certain date so no work could be done. When work started I informed the employee no work could be done on that date.The employee showed up on that date and was a little perturbed because my DISABLED wife would not let him in.
Prep mans part of work. Part of the job was to move a bathroom vent exhaust that vented into attic
