Metro Detroit Air Sealing Services

If you’re tired of drafty rooms, rising utility bills, or uneven temperatures in your home, professional air sealing in Metro Detroit may be the solution. At Emperor Insulation, we help southeast Michigan homeowners stop energy waste at its source—by identifying and sealing hidden air leaks that quietly drain comfort and money year-round. Our expert team uses proven air sealing techniques to make your home tighter, more efficient, and more comfortable in every season.

Air sealing is the process of closing gaps and cracks throughout your home that allow outside air to leak in, and conditioned air to escape. These leaks are common around windows, doors, attic hatches, plumbing penetrations, and electrical outlets. By sealing them, you create a stronger barrier throughout your home—improving comfort, efficiency, and indoor air quality.

• Lower energy bills: Keep conditioned air inside where it belongs.
• Increased comfort: Eliminate cold spots and reduce drafts.
• Cleaner indoor air: Block out dust, pollen, and outdoor pollutants.
• Pest control: Prevents insects and pests from infiltrating your home.
• Extended HVAC life: Reduce strain on heating and cooling systems.
• Boosted home value: Improve your home’s energy efficiency rating.

Depending on the areas of the home, we use a variety of professional-grade tools and equipment to tackle even the most stubborn gaps or leaks that hemorrhage your home's energy performance.

• Spray foam sealant for larger cracks and rim joists
• Caulking and weatherstripping around doors, windows, and joints
• Expanding foam for attic and basement penetrations

All materials are safe, durable, and designed to last for years without degrading performance.

If your home is older, drafty, or has fluctuating room temperatures, air sealing can make a noticeable difference. Homes in Metro Detroit, especially ones with crawl spaces and older windows/doors have a higher potential of unseen gaps and cracks that contribute to poor energy efficiency. Air sealing is especially beneficial before adding insulation or replacing your HVAC system—ensuring every upgrade performs to its full potential.

Here are the telltale signs you have significant air leakage in your Metro Detroit home:

• Drafts near doors and windows
• Uneven room temperatures
• Missing or insufficient caulking around windows and doors
• Cracks or gaps in the foundation or crawl space
• Visible gaps around baseboards and outlets
• Inside of your windows frosting up during colder temps

For more accurate results, a professional blower door test can detect if your home is losing energy due to poor sealing or insulation.
