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!
Woodlawn sits just west of Baltimore city limits along Security Boulevard. We provide insulation services for Woodlawn homes, shops, and the older split-levels common throughout the area. Quick response matters here because Woodlawn has a mix of 1950s-1970s ranches, and many have thin attic insulation or uninsulated crawlspaces. These older properties often need updated insulation to meet today’s energy standards.
You’ll find split-levels, Cape Cods, and small commercial buildings along Windsor Mill Road in this neighborhood. Call us to check availability for a Woodlawn job. Finding an insulation contractor Woodlawn property owners trust means working with a team familiar with the area’s older housing stock and the specific challenges these homes face.
Attic Insulation Upgrades Keep Woodlawn Split-Levels Comfortable Year-Round
Homeowners in Woodlawn’s split-level and ranch neighborhoods off Dogwood Road and Lord Baltimore Drive can boost their attic R-value from R-11 to R-38 or higher. This cuts heating bills during winter months and keeps your home cooler in summer. Many Woodlawn attics have compressed fiberglass from 1960s construction that has settled and lost effectiveness over the decades.
Raised floors in split-levels limit crawl room, but we work in tight spaces safely with proper equipment. We remove old batts first and dispose of them properly. Then we air seal around chimney chases, plumbing penetrations, and electrical wiring before installing blown cellulose or fiberglass.
This two-step approach stops air leaks that waste energy even with new insulation in place. Proper home energy insulation requires sealing air leaks before adding new material to ensure maximum effectiveness. You get better temperature control upstairs, fewer drafts, and lower energy costs month after month. The investment typically pays for itself within a few years through reduced utility bills.

Crawlspace Insulation Solves Moisture Issues in Woodlawn Ranch Homes
Ranch owners near Gwynn Oak Park and along Gwynn Oak Avenue deal with cold floors over crawlspaces. Humidity can damage floor joists over time and create musty odors that travel into living areas. Woodlawn’s clay soil holds water longer after rain, and vented crawlspaces pull in damp summer air that condenses on cooler surfaces.
We install vapor barriers that cover the crawlspace floor and apply closed-cell spray foam on rim joists where the foundation meets the floor framing. Optional encapsulation gives you complete moisture control by sealing vents and treating the crawlspace as conditioned space. You get warmer floors in winter, reduced humidity year-round, and a healthier home environment. Many homeowners notice the difference immediately when walking barefoot on first-floor rooms.
Spray Foam Solutions for Woodlawn Commercial Buildings Along Security Boulevar
Small retail, office, and warehouse owners on Security Boulevard and Windsor Mill Road can lower HVAC run-time with proper insulation. Indoor air quality improves in older commercial spaces when you reduce air infiltration and control temperature more effectively. Woodlawn Shopping Center and nearby strip malls date to the 1960s. Most have metal roofs and minimal wall insulation that meet old building codes but waste energy by today’s standards.
We apply closed-cell foam on roof decks to create a thermal barrier and stop heat gain in summer. Open-cell foam works well in partition walls where sound dampening helps between tenant spaces. We coordinate scheduling to avoid disrupting your tenants and can work evenings or weekends when needed.
Your building stays comfortable while energy costs drop significantly. Tenants appreciate consistent temperatures and quieter spaces.

Wall Insulation Retrofits for Older Woodlawn Cape Cods and Two-Stories
Homeowners in Cape Cod and two-story homes near Woodlawn High School and Johnnycake Road can add insulation to empty wall cavities. You don’t need to remove siding or drywall for this retrofit work. Many Woodlawn Cape Cods have brick veneer exteriors that look beautiful but provide minimal insulation value.
We drill through mortar joints to blow dense-pack cellulose into the walls between studs, filling the empty cavities completely. Our exterior drill-and-fill method keeps the work outside your home. We drill small holes in a grid pattern, insert filling tubes, and pack cellulose to proper density.
Then we patch and paint mortar to match your existing color when finished. You get minimal interior mess, no furniture moving, and walls that hold heat better throughout winter. The cellulose also reduces sound transmission from outside traffic noise.
ATTIC TYPES
Air Sealing Before Insulation Prevents Woodlawn Basement Drafts
Owners of finished or semi-finished basements in split-levels and ranches need air sealing first. Stop cold air leaks around rim joists and ductwork before adding new insulation on top. Woodlawn basements often have older oil-to-gas furnace conversions completed years ago. Unsealed duct penetrations are common in these homes where contractors ran new gas lines and venting but didn’t seal gaps properly.
We apply spray foam or caulk at the rim joist where outside air sneaks in most. We seal around pipes and wires that penetrate the foundation, then insulate your basement ceiling if it’s unfinished. You get a warmer basement, stop wasting heat, and may even gain usable living space downstairs.
Our air conditioning contractor services can also help if you need HVAC improvements alongside insulation upgrades. Properly sealed and insulated basements stay dry and comfortable year-round.
