Seal Your Band Joists,
Save Energy
Prevent drafts, frozen pipes, and uneven floors by properly insulating your band joists. Atlas makes your home more comfortable and energy-efficient from the foundation up.
50%
Fewer Drafts – Warmer first floors
Up to 25%
Energy Savings – Reduce heating/cooling costs
100%
Protection – Against moisture and air leaks
A Critical Area Often Overlooked
Band joists run along the perimeter of your home where the first-floor joists sit on the foundation walls. These areas are often major sources of air leaks due to numerous framing connections, mechanical penetrations, and electrical pathways. Uninsulated band joists can lead to colder basements, icy floors, and even frozen pipes during winter.
Traditional fiberglass in these areas is often ineffective because it doesn’t stop air movement. Atlas replaces old insulation with spray foam to air-seal and insulate band joists, improving comfort, energy efficiency, and reducing strain on your heating and cooling system.
What’s Included in Your
Band Joist Upgrade?
Our service ensures complete insulation and air sealing for long-lasting comfort.
How It Works
From inspection to insulation, Atlas makes your band joists airtight and energy-efficient.
Inspection
Identify leaks, moisture, and old insulation issues.
Preparation

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my band joists need insulation?
Look for drafts near the basement perimeter, cold first floors, condensation on ducts, or frozen pipes in winter.
What type of insulation do you use?
We use closed-cell spray foam, which seals air leaks, stops drafts, and outperforms traditional fiberglass.
Will insulating band joists reduce my energy bills?
Yes. Properly insulated and sealed band joists prevent heat loss and reduce the workload on your HVAC system.
Can this be done without removing drywall?
Yes. Atlas can access most band joist areas without major demolition, especially in unfinished basements or behind accessible ceilings.
