You don’t really know what a job is going to look like until you’re standing in front of the house.

This one meant getting equipment from the truck, across the property and where our crew needed it without turning someone’s home into a construction zone. It’s one of those details that probably doesn’t sound exciting, but working carefully around a homeowner’s property is part of doing the job well.

The pest problem has been handled. Great.

But before you close the book on it, there’s one more place worth checking: the attic itself.

Pest activity can leave behind damaged or contaminated insulation, which means removing the animal doesn’t necessarily restore the space it was living in. That may require addressing affected materials and getting the attic back into better condition.

There’s fall, and then there’s Wisconsin fall.

The kind where you leave the house bundled up, shed two layers by lunch, and somehow need them both again before the day is over.

Our crews know the routine. Heating season is coming, whether we’re ready to admit it or not.

You turn up the thermostat. The living room feels great. The bedroom down the hall is still freezing.

Sound familiar?

It’s tempting to blame the insulation right away, but uneven temperatures can have more than one cause. Air leakage, insulation and ventilation can all play a role in how comfortable a room feels.

Sometimes the cold room is the clue, not the diagnosis.

If you’re paying to heat your home, it’s worth knowing how much of that energy is actually staying where you want it.

Energy loss can happen in places most homeowners rarely think about, from the attic all the way down to areas around the foundation. And when those trouble spots aren’t visible, it’s easy to assume everything is working the way it should.

Swipe through for four places worth paying attention to before Wisconsin heating season is in full swing.

Those giant icicles might be pretty. The reason they’re forming? Worth understanding.

When heat escapes from your home into the attic, it can warm the roof enough to melt the snow sitting above it. That water travels down toward the colder edge of the roof, where it can freeze again and contribute to an ice dam.

So if this is a familiar sight at your house every winter, don’t wait for the icicles to start wondering why they’re there.

Take a closer look at one piece of the puzzle, attic air sealing, and how it helps control unwanted heat loss: https://bit.ly/4qui4mY

When someone comes to work on your home, you should feel confident in the person walking up the driveway.

For us, that means having people who know their craft, pay attention to the details and take pride in leaving behind work they’d stand behind.

The products and equipment might change from job to job. That standard doesn’t.

The first cold stretch of the year can tell you a lot about your home.

Maybe one room takes longer to warm up. You notice a draft near an area that felt fine all summer. Or your energy use starts climbing more than you expected.

Those little changes are worth paying attention to before Wisconsin winter really settles in.

Save this checklist for your fall home check. If you’re noticing signs that your home isn’t holding onto comfort the way it should, see how WHI evaluates the home to identify what may need attention: https://bit.ly/46o62Cn
