Heating, Plumbing & Home Repair in Veazie, ME

Veazie is a small, mostly residential town on the Penobscot between Bangor and Orono, and many of its homes date from the 1950s through the 1980s.

Homes from that era were built before today’s energy codes, so they often lose a lot of heat through the attic, basement and around windows. We look at comfort and efficiency along with any remodel. Request a free estimate to begin.

We at One Stop Home Repair have served Veazie since 1980 from our Orono shop, one town over.

Air Leaks in Veazie's Midcentury Homes

Many Veazie houses were built between the 1950s and 1980s, when builders paid little attention to air sealing. Ranches and split levels from that era often have open gaps around chimneys, plumbing stacks, recessed lights and the top of interior walls. Warm air rises through those gaps into the attic, and cold air is pulled in low through the basement and rim joists.

That air movement accounts for a large share of heat loss. The U.S. Department of Energy explains that sealing air leaks is one of the most cost-effective ways to cut heating and cooling costs.

Our approach is to find the leaks before adding insulation. Insulation slows heat flow, but it does not stop air, so piling it over open gaps leaves much of the problem in place. We seal the attic floor and rim joists first, then bring insulation up to current levels. If you are planning a heat pump, we do this work first, because a tighter house often needs a smaller system.
