Energy Efficient For Cost Savings

Located at the meeting point of New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, Port Jervis has long served as a transportation and industrial gateway to the Upper Delaware region. 

The original settlement of European settlers was known as the Mahackamack, which burned down in 1779 during the Battle of Minisink. The settlement was rebuilt over the next two decades and became an attractive hub for industry after the opening of the Delaware and Hudson Canal. 

The city grew rapidly in the 19th century as a major railroad hub along the Erie Railroad, shaping much of its housing stock, street layout, and infrastructure that still exists today.

Port Jervis features a wide range of historic row houses, early-20th-century single-family houses, hillside neighborhoods, and older commercial buildings along Front and Pike Streets. Many of these homes were built well before modern energy codes, making insulation and air sealing a persistent challenge for homeowners and property owners.

Cold winters, humid summers, and aging foundations can drive up your heating costs, create uncomfortable drafts, and leave rooms feeling inconsistent year-round. With the right insulation and concrete-lifting solutions, you can improve energy efficiency, eliminate wasted heat, and protect your property with upgrades designed specifically for the Hudson Valley and Southern Tier climate.

Invest in energy-efficiency solutions, guaranteed to deliver lower energy costs and increased home comfort for decades, including:

In addition, you can take advantage of affordable polyjacking concrete lifting services that are longer-lasting, quicker to cure, and far less invasive than traditional mudjacking.

Port Jervis Homes Face Unique Energy Efficiency Challenges

Much of Port Jervis’s housing stock dates back to the railroad and manufacturing boom of the late 1800s and early 1900s. 

As these buildings age, insulation settles or deteriorates, air gaps develop around rim joists and foundations, and moisture intrusion becomes more common, especially in homes near the rivers or built into hillsides.

Seasonal temperature swings, heavy snowfall, and humid summers only magnify the problem, forcing heating and cooling systems to work harder than they should.

After many years, homeowners often notice:

  • Drafty rooms and cold spots during winter
  • Hot upper floors and inconsistent temperatures year-round
  • Rising utility bills despite routine HVAC maintenance
  • Moisture buildup on windows, walls, or basement surfaces
  • Musty odors or visible mold in attics and lower levels

If your home was built decades ago or hasn’t had its insulation evaluated recently, outdated materials could be costing you comfort and money every month. Upgrading insulation and air sealing is one of the most effective ways to stabilize indoor temperatures and reduce long-term energy expenses in Port Jervis homes.

Lower Energy Bills with High-Quality Insulation Services

EnergySmart installs high-performance insulation like spray foam that expands to seal cracks, gaps, and voids, creating an airtight barrier against heat loss and moisture intrusion. 

This is especially effective for Port Jervis’s mix of stone foundations, balloon framing, and mid-century construction.

Benefits of our insulation services include:

  • Up to 50% reduction in heating and cooling costs
  • Improved moisture control and mold prevention
  • Long-lasting performance that won’t sag or settle
  • Reduced outdoor noise and better indoor air quality

For homes with specific layouts or budget considerations, we also install blown-in cellulose, fiberglass batts, and injection foam, selecting the right solution for each structure.

Insulation Removal and Replacement in Port Jervis

Older insulation can conceal serious issues, including rodent damage, moisture buildup, and asbestos, especially in homes built before the 1980s Our team safely removes contaminated or deteriorated insulation, thoroughly cleans and air-seals the space, and installs modern materials that meet today’s efficiency standards.

Replacing outdated insulation improves comfort, indoor air quality, and long-term property value while reducing year-round energy costs.

Affordable Concrete Lifting in Port Jervis

Freeze-thaw cycles, compacted soils, and aging concrete often cause sidewalks, steps, patios, and driveways in Port Jervis to sink or crack. 

Instead of full replacement, EnergySmart uses polyurethane foam injection to lift and stabilize concrete quickly and affordably. This method is:

  • Less invasive than mudjacking
  • Ready for use within hours
