Griffin's housing stock skews older than most of our service area, mill village bungalows and foursquares from the early-to-mid 1900s make up a big share of the city, alongside newer homes further out. Those older homes were built well, but almost never with meaningful insulation, which makes Griffin one of the places where a retrofit makes the most noticeable difference.
Griffin's mill village homes and early-1900s bungalows were framed to last, but insulation wasn't standard practice when most of them were built. We regularly find bare attic joists with no fiberglass at all, and crawlspaces that have never been touched since the house went up. These are usually the highest-impact jobs we do anywhere in our service area, since going from zero insulation to a properly insulated attic and sealed crawlspace makes an immediate, obvious difference in comfort and energy bills.
