Suburban Homes Along the Neshaminy

Spray Foam Insulation in Northampton Township mostly means upgrading houses from its long growth spurt. Population went from 6,006 in 1960 to 35,406 in 1990, according to Wikipedia, so most homes in Richboro, Holland and Churchville date from those decades. Neshaminy Creek forms the township's whole northeastern boundary, and Tyler State Park covers 1,711 acres inside it.

Houses from three decades

A 1960s ranch, a 1970s split-level and a 1980s colonial each leak in different places. Ranches lose heat through big, thinly insulated attics. Split-levels leak at garage ceilings and multiple rim joists. Colonials often have bonus rooms and unsealed kneewalls. We walk through the house and tell you which of those apply.

Floods along the creek

Neshaminy Creek has risen more than 10 feet above normal in severe storms, and Irene and Lee pushed it to 100-year highs. Homes near the creek or its many tributaries should have dry basements before any insulation goes on the walls.

Where we start

In most houses, the attic and the rim joist. Those two areas usually return the most comfort for the money, and both are quick jobs compared with walls.

Additions and sunrooms

Over three decades of growth, many Northampton houses have gained a sunroom, family room or bedroom addition. Additions are often the least comfortable rooms in the house, because they were insulated by a different builder, at a different time, and sometimes sit over a crawl space or slab with little insulation underneath. We look at each addition on its own and tell you what will help.

Northampton Township Questions

My house is near the Neshaminy. Can you insulate the basement?

Yes, if it stays dry. If it has flooded, we focus on the rim joist and upper levels and suggest drainage work before insulating basement walls.

What is the quickest improvement in a 1970s house?

Sealing and topping up the attic, then foaming the rim joist. Both usually take a day or less.

Do you work in Holland and Richboro?

Yes, and throughout the township including Churchville and Ivyland-area neighborhoods.

Why is my addition colder than the rest of the house?

Additions often have less insulation, air leaks where they join the main house, and a crawl space or slab below. We find which applies and price the fix.

Do I need a permit for insulation work?

Simple attic or rim joist insulation usually does not, but work tied to a remodel or addition might. Check with the township if in doubt.
