Posted on Maria B2023-05-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bob came to inspect the house, carefully evaluated what had to be done and explained us in detail the work that he would do. He then send us a very reasonable estimate and came to do the work soon after. He was very kind throughout the process and even offered to work around the nap time of our daughter not to make too much noise. He completed the work in half a day with his helper that also left the area clean and tidy. We would recommend Bob for great insulation work at a good price!Posted on Joanna2022-09-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They did a good job in insulation and good customer service.Posted on Caroline Oneill2022-02-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used Bob and his team on two separate instances for two different properties, and both times they were able to quickly identify my issues and help remediate them! Most recently, my fiancé and I moved into a 1900s renovated home. Upon moving in, we quickly noticed that we were FREEZING all the time, even when cranking the heat. Bob and his team came and performed a full audit of the home and discovered there was absolutely no insulation on our third floor. They also gave us some other very helpful tips on how to save energy in our home. I would recommend anyone who owns property to have Bob and his team come at the very least do an audit at your property, as we ended up saving tons of money on our energy bills after using his services. It is definitely worth it, especially if you have an older home or have been noticing high bills.Posted on Maria Edmonds2021-02-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Got my attic insulated last February. H.E.L.P. did an excellent job. I could immediately see the difference in my energy bill, and the comfort in my home. I highly recommend them.Posted on Katherine Galbreath2020-08-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They insulated my (absolutely no insulation upon move-in) flat roof at a reasonable price! Bob and Mike came to assess/quote and Mike was super friendly and knowledgeable at installation!Posted on Alex Stimac2020-02-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. HELP was a huge help for us. We are new homeowners and we were shocked at our high gas bills during our first winter in the house. After researching online, we signed up for the BGE home energy audit (costs $100 and includes a lot of free stuff as part of the audit. There is zero reason not to do it if you are at all concerned about the weatherproofing in your home). Bob from HELP came out to perform our audit, which revealed the existence of several massive connections between the attic and our basement, which essentially caused our basement to constantly suck cold air in from the outside, forcing our furnace to work overtime. Bob walked us through his proposal and quote as well as the BGE rebate process, and was able to secure a really high rebate for us. Mike and Joe came out to do the actual insulating and sealing work, and they were polite, diligent, and thorough throughout. I can’t say enough positive things about the HELP team and I highly highly recommend both HELP and the BGE Energy Audit program.Posted on mary bradley2019-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After getting a horrific energy bill on a recently renovated house in Arbutus, I called HELP and Bob came by and completely insulated the home, made things more energy efficient, and educated us along the way! Just received our energy bill and we think Bob is a rock star! Thank you!Posted on Donna Green2018-08-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had my house attic and garage insulated along with some other energy efficiency updates and I can't say enough good things about H.E.L.P. After enduring adverse temperature extremes and paying out very high electric and gas bills for two years I am so glad to have made the investment to get the issues fixed. Thanks again Bob!
Hamilton sits in Northeast Baltimore, where historic rowhouses and diverse housing create specific insulation needs. This page covers professional insulation services for Hamilton homes and commercial properties. Proximity matters – we respond quickly to Hamilton addresses and know local building codes and architectural styles.
Many Hamilton properties built before 1950 have outdated or missing insulation. We understand rowhouse party walls, attic access, and basement moisture conditions. As your local insulation contractor in Hamilton, we bring expertise for your specific property type. Check our availability for Hamilton addresses this week.
Insulation Challenges Unique to Hamilton's Historic Rowhouses and Older Homes
Hamilton rowhouses built between 1900 and 1940 often lack wall cavity insulation entirely. Shared party walls, narrow attics, and plaster-over-lath construction create access challenges. Many Hamilton basements show moisture issues that need addressing before we insulate, and proper basement ceiling insulation requires careful planning in older homes.
Three-story rowhouses on Harford Road require a different approach than single-family homes on side streets. Proper diagnosis prevents mold and keeps your insulation performing as expected. We assess each property individually to identify the right solution for your home’s age and construction style.

How Proper Attic and Wall Insulation Cuts Energy Bills in Hamilton Year-Round
Hamilton residents face hot, humid summers and cold winters that demand both heating and cooling. Attic insulation rated R-38 to R-49 stops heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Wall cavity insulation reduces drafts and temperature swings from floor to floor.
Clients near Hamilton Hills Park report 20-30% lower HVAC costs after upgrading their insulation. Homes near the Lauraville border benefit from addressing both attic and exterior wall insulation. You can expect a quieter indoor environment and more consistent room temperatures throughout your home. Improved insulation means your heating and cooling systems run less often, saving money every month.
Getting Your Hamilton Property Ready Before Insulation Installation Begins
Clear attic access points and remove stored items from work areas before we arrive. Identify any roof leaks or water damage before insulation goes in. For dense-pack wall insulation, move furniture 12-18 inches from exterior walls.
Hamilton rowhomes may need coordination with attached neighbors for shared attic access. Baltimore City sometimes requires permits for major insulation retrofits. Prep work prevents delays and keeps installation day clean and efficient. We provide a detailed preparation checklist when you schedule your appointment.
What Hamilton Homeowners Can Expect During Professional Insulation Work
A typical Hamilton rowhouse attic takes 4-6 hours to insulate. A full home with attic plus walls takes 1-2 days. We use blown-in cellulose or fiberglass for attics and dense-pack cellulose for closed wall cavities.
We seal work areas and vacuum after completion to minimize mess. We recently insulated 10 rowhomes on Harford Road within a two-week schedule. You can stay home during the work, though expect some dust and noise during wall insulation.
Our final inspection confirms target R-values and complete coverage. We walk you through the completed work and answer any questions about caring for your new insulation. Most Hamilton homeowners notice improved comfort within the first day after installation, and your air conditioning system will run more efficiently during Baltimore’s hot summers.

ATTIC TYPES
Maintaining Insulation Performance After Installation in Baltimore's Climate
Insulation lasts 20-30 years but needs dry, ventilated attic space to perform well. Check for roof leaks annually, particularly after heavy storms. Avoid compressing attic insulation with stored boxes or foot traffic.
Hamilton homeowners should inspect after winter freeze-thaw cycles. Proper attic ventilation through soffit and ridge vents prevents moisture buildup. Consider adding insulation if you renovate or re-roof down the line.
We offer follow-up inspections to check insulation condition and ventilation performance. Small maintenance steps protect your investment and keep energy bills low for decades. Contact us if you notice increased energy costs or comfort issues after the first few years.
