The “basement” of a home can be different things based on the age, type, and style of your home.
They can be unfinished areas subject to wet conditions, dry areas designated for storage space, finished extensions of the living space with just the basics, and some with more elaborate features such as theaters, bars, wine cellars, panic rooms, music studios and smoking rooms.
Regardless of the style of construction or the age of the home, the basement is one of the most important areas of your home to address for better comfort, energy efficiency, and indoor air quality.
Kansas City Insulation provides almost every basement related service. We offer complete debris cleanouts, ventilation and insulation services, sound control and storage systems, sump pumps, and water-resistant exterior wall framing systems.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy Home Improvement Expert™ Factsheet
“Installed correctly, basement wall insulation can cut your utility bills, make your home more comfortable and increase its value.”
It has been estimated that 80% of American homes are under insulated compared to today’s standards and offer little to no air sealing which allows air to freely leak from the outside and into the living space.
In the past, builders were limited to conventional fiber insulation. This is designed to delay heat loss, but cannot air seal and can retain moisture.
Today it is common for energy codes to require a non-permeable and seamless insulation on basement walls and foam sealed foundation sill / joist ends prior to framing.
Kansas City Insulation offers a full range of basement insulation, heat management and air sealing services as well as sound control systems, non-wood exterior basement wall framing, and more.
