Understanding the Challenges of Historic Homes in Belgrade, ME

Many of the homes in Belgrade, ME, have been standing strong for nearly a century, built by skilled Maine carpenters who understood the importance of allowing a house to breathe. However, as oil prices have risen and energy efficiency has become a top priority, many of these same homes have been made much tighter using lower-quality materials, often at the expense of breathability. This can lead to poor indoor air quality, mold, mildew, and health issues for the occupants.

At The Breathable Home, we recognize the need to strike a balance between energy efficiency and maintaining a healthy living environment. Our goal is to help homeowners in Belgrade, ME, enjoy the benefits of a well-insulated, energy-efficient home without sacrificing the breathability that is essential to the health and longevity of both the structure and its inhabitants.

Our Approach: Building Tight, Using the Right Products, and Ventilating Right

To achieve the perfect balance of energy efficiency and breathability, we follow a simple yet effective approach: build tight, use the right products, and ventilate right. This means that we focus on making your home as airtight as possible to keep in the heat, while also allowing for controlled fresh air intake to maintain a healthy environment for both you and your house.

Our team uses only the highest-quality, environmentally friendly products in our work, ensuring that your home remains durable, safe, and efficient for years to come. We also employ advanced ventilation techniques to promote optimal air circulation and prevent the build-up of harmful pollutants, moisture, and other contaminants that can compromise your home’s breathability.

What our customers are saying
Customer Reviews

The Breathable Home is one of the best subs that I’ve used in building any home. Their prices were very competitive but the care and thought that the installers used went above and beyond anything I had a reasonable expectation of receiving. The installers were experienced, knowledgeable and personally engaging.

I was very Happy working with The Breathable Home on my new construction. They insulated, installed Heat Pumps and and air exchange system. The inspector from Efficiency Maine said “This is the best heat pump installation I have EVER seen!” As a new home owner, this was great to hear. I highly recommend The Breathable home.

Drew and his team at the Breathable Home are a breath of fresh air in the very tricky business of winterizing old Maine homes in a sustainable fashion. We have had extensive dealings with a half-a-dozen companies in this line of business and The Breathable Home is the only one that takes a comprehensive view without charging a fortune.

Rob C.

My experience with this company has been exceptional. The house is an envelope design that had not been maintained by any of the previous homeowners. The insulation was no longer good and after an incorrect insulation job by another company Tom was able to correct the problem.
