A well-planned home addition will keep its value and pay for itself time and time again!
A home addition of any size may seem like a small project compared to building a new house, but it requires far greater skill and craftsmanship. The new addition will need to blend in with the style of your existing home, and be built around your daily activities.
However, the benefits of the addition far exceed beyond simply increasing your new found household living space. The overall house value is immeasurable; especially should you ever plan to sell. Then, your home transformation will become a major selling advantage!

Last month we talked about reducing your energy bills by focusing on insulation solutions. If you haven't acted yet to get a quote for insulation you should still seriously consider getting an estimate today! But lets keep going...lets move on to a very hot topic - WINDOWS!
I know windows can be one of the most attractive features in your home, and they might even have been the reason you purchased your home! Windows can provide views, light, ventilation, and so much more. Unfortunately, windows - even the most beautiful wood windows, can account for 10-25% of your heating bill in the winter months. Plus, throughout the summer, your will find your air conditioner having to work even harder to cool hot air from sunny windows. Overworked air conditioners over time can result in high replacement costs and ongoing expensive service calls. UGH!
So what to do? Consider Energy Efficient Windows!
Energy efficient windows come with features like: low-e glass, special coatings, multi-pane window options, gas filled and vacuum seals, warm-edge spacers and advanced frame materials — all these window features come together to keep the summer heat at bay and the winter cold outside, away from you and your family, all while maximizing your home’s heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems - AND SAVING YOU MONEY.
So many features...where do you begin when purchasing replacement windows? Call for an estimate from a window professional like Father and Son Building and Remodeling. Only professional contractors like Father and Son with licensing and solid BBB Ratings can offer real solutions. A professional will come to your home measure your windows, explain your replacement window options and in no time you will be enjoying the perfect temperature home with your new windows!
Can't wait for your estimate and want some tricks to hold you over until then?
Try some of these energy efficient tricks:
- Thermal drapes. Long, heavy curtains with back blockers to keep the cold air from moving further than the window into your home.
- Sealants and weatherstripping. They are temporary and removable but seal up windows in the winter. The down side is you won’t be able to open the window until you remove the sealant, but the lack of drafts may be worth it.
- Plastic Covers. Cover windows with clear plastic sheets by sticking double-sided tape around the frame and then blasting it with a hair dryer to eliminate wrinkles and ripples. Some may even want to consider covering windows with aluminum foil to block the heat rays or even solar screens.
- Interior shutters. Interior shutters prevent heat transfer from making it into your home. But like drapes, they block out views.
- Storm windows. These can be installed with some ease and can be installed either temporarily or permanently, however, storm windows are not the best for insulation, but they do stop drafts and weather from getting into your home.

It's true! Right in your very own home, you have the power to reduce the energy you use each month. Simply turning down the thermostat is not enough. It only reduces your saves pennies on your utility bills! Lets talk about long-term savings tips! This month we are going to focus on INSULATION!
Adding insulation to your attic utilizing our Owens Corning AttiCat Expanding Blown-In PINK Fiberglas Insulation System is a must!
Fiberglas™ Insulation works on the principle of trapped air pockets. Millions of tiny air pockets form between the tangled strands of the Fiberglas™ Insulation. These air pockets resist the passage of heat fl ow through the material, reducing heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. Generally, the thicker the insulation, the more air pockets and the higher the R-value.
R-VALUE DEFINED: The insulation performance of all insulation products is measured by a common standard: the R-value. R-value measures resistance to heat fl ow; the higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. R-value is usually determined by the thickness of the insulation. With our Owens Corning AttiCat® Blown-In Insulation System, you can blow-in insulation as thick as you want to achieve any desired R-value!
THERMAL PERFORMANCE DEFINED: FIBER GLASS VS CELLULOSE
Fiber Glass – loose fill fiber glass experiences less than 2% settling and delivers the R-value stated on its package for the life of the home.
Cellulose – can experience up to 25% settling, losing 15 to 25 percent of its R-value. Installers
must apply at the “inital installed thickness” listed on the bag to get the desired R-value.

Even more interesting...is the fact there’s a very good chance your home is not as well insulated as it should be or you think it is. What most do not want to own up to is the fact that not having enough insulation can result in major energy loss, lost money and lots of uncomfortableness. On a side note, your home unfortunately is constantly leaking energy – especially through the attic.
As a matter of fact, there are over 80 million homes in the United States alone that do not have enough insulation in their homes right now. Adding Atticat insulation can help keep better control your home's energy bills while helping the environment too!
Remember - Owens Corning's AttiCat Insulation is a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) approved product.
Home energy costs are always on the rise and if you want to protect your home against these rising expenses insulation is a smart decision for any home. A well-insulated home will significantly reduce the cost of utility bills throughout the entire year from winter to spring and summer to fall.
