Custom Home Energy Audits

The best way to determine what the cause of your home's inefficiencies are is by performing a home energy audit. Our custom home energy audit can help us discover the root cause for your home's issues, and while we are going through the house, we can figure out what solutions we can use to permanently fix this. Before we start going through the home, we will sit down with you to see what your primary concerns are, and we will make these issues a priority. Once we have completed the audit, we will talk with you again to go over the results and our findings. Based on what we uncover, we will make recommendations to fix your home and create a more energy-efficient environment you and your family will enjoy for years to come! Contact us today for a home energy consultation. 

Radon Testing & Mitigation 

Radon is a naturally occurring invisible & odorless gas that can have a big impact on the air quality of your home. Radon is also the second leading cause of lung cancer after cigarette smoke. High levels of radon gas are commonly found throughout Delaware & E. Shore Maryland and because radon gas cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted the only way to ensure that you and your family are not affected by this dangerous gas is to have one of our experts visit your home and perform proper testing. Radon testing is the fastest & most effective way to ensure the safety of your family. Depending on the results of the test, Lawson Home Services can offer several radon mitigation solutions that will limit exposure to the gas and also ventilate it away from your home. Our radon mitigation methods are highly successful and we always stand behind our work! To learn more about radon gas mitigation and testing call or click today!

Job Stories From Bethany Beach, DE
Annual Maintenance in Bethany Beach

These loyal customers wisely schedule the recommended annual maintenance for the equipment and measures we installed in their Bethany Beach, DE home back in 2020. Though we don't expect anything to go wrong we always want to stop in and have a thorough look in case something has. SmartSump™ pumps get dirty and require cleaning. SaniDry dehumidifiers require cleaning of the filter and drain hoses. We also inspect and test run the equipment to make certain that it is functioning properly and doing the job it was installed to do. We double check all the settings and adjust anything that needs to be changed. We take a look at the CleanSpace™ crawl space liner to make sure everything is still attached to the crawlspace walls and the seams are still holding together. The CleanSpace™ liner also makes spotting other problems, things like plumbing leaks, easy to find, thus providing the unwary homeowner a chance to call a repair service before a major problem develops.
Everything was looking fine at this home on this visit, so Dr. Energy Saver will bid farewell and return next year for the next inspection.

Energy Audit in Bethany Beach, DE

Many things can be discovered concerning the air quality, comfort and energy efficiency issues in your home during an energy audit by Lawson Home Services.  When the audit is completed you have hard-based scientific data to guide you in deciding what steps you can take to improve the  your home, improvements that will save you money over time, result in healthier indoor air, and make your home more comfortable, and enjoyable, year-round. 
The audit will uncover the truth about the unnecessary energy losses occurring in your home - hidden things that have drastic effects on home comfort and energy efficiency. The auditor will test and assess the way the conditioned air you pay to heat and cool is PRODUCED, DELIVERED and RETAINED throughout your your home. 

Energy can be lost through small air leaks all across the attic floor, allowing conditioned air to escape from the home, just as if a window were left open year-round. This type of air leakiness is tested with a "Blower Door" device which is set up in the opening of an entry door. 

Flaws and leaks in the pressurized HVAC ductwork can also result in expensive loss of conditioned air. The ductwork will be inspected, and any problems noted to determine if the conditioned air your HVAC unit is producing is actually being delivered to the rooms where it is needed. 

The auditor will measure the insulation value existing in places like attics, floors, crawlspaces and basements to see how well it retains the conditioned air to maintain comfortable temperatures and keep humidity levels at optimal levels.
One of the most important things our auditor will test is the level of radon gas accumulating in your home. One in fifteen American homes has high levels of radon gas. Only cigarette smoking poses greater risks for lung cancer. You'd want to know if your kids were smoking cigarettes wouldn't you? Then you'd certainly want to know if they are being exposed to similar risks from exposure to radon gas the entire time they are inside their home.
So it makes sense to call Lawson Home Services today to schedule an energy audit and find ways to improve your home and reduce your monthly energy bills.

Should I install flood vents?

 

Susan and her sister had inherited their mother’s home in Delaware.  They wanted to make sure that this beach home could be enjoyed by another generation and immediately proceeded to make a few necessary upgrades.

The home had been in the family for years and was a few blocks from the beach.  The sisters KNEW the area flooded.  They wanted to increase the value of the home and reduce the risk of flooding causing structural issues.

We walked the sisters through how our Smart Vents worked to decrease the pressure applied to a foundation during a flooding situation.  We explained the how and why of where we installed them and walked them through exactly how installation would work.

In the end the sisters were very happy with the work done.

 

Also...an additional advantage was they were able to have their home insurance reevaluated.  In many cases the premium for homeowners on their flood insurance can be cut by half! In some cases the vents pay themselves off in the first year not to mention any subsequent savings.

If you are in an area that regularly floods or is at risk for flooding Smart Vents can be a great way to decrease the risks incurred to your home.

Torrential Downpour Leaves Bethany Beach Crawl Space Underwater

After a torrential downpour left Bethany Beach homeowner Thomas L.’s crawl space underwater, he knew it was time to take precautionary measures.  Thomas went online to search for contractors to help solve his problem.  He soon came across DES Delmarva, whom he contacted for a free estimate.

The following week Thomas was met by Delmarva representative and waterproofing specialist Michael Tucker.  After a quick analysis of the crawl space, Michael realized that the perfect solution would be to install closed cell spray foam insulation.  This specific type of insulation is perfect for crawl spaces due to its dense nature, which allows it to be more compact.  It also acts as an air barrier and as an effective water barrier.  Michael explained to Thomas how the insulation would be integrated in his crawl space and what its effects would be.  Thomas liked the product and agreed to go along with the installation process.

Michael called in Delmarva’s Production Team One to complete the installation process.  With Thomas’s basement now insulated, it is ready to save energy and take on the elements as well!
