May 2026 - Ice Dams, Insulation Myths, and Knowing When to Walk Away
WYSL/ Wise Home Energy Show
Jeff Flaherty breaks down some real-world lessons from recent jobs, including a Cape Cod ice dam mystery traced back to a half-inch gap around a ceiling light, a frustrating dispute over skylight leaks that got blamed on insulation work, and a town home attic that another contractor quietly packed wrong. He also covers why fiberglass keeps getting installed despite being a poor air sealer, how to actually compare competing quotes (hint: white out the price), and the RG&E insulation rebate running dry. Plus, the one-liner that finally nails who's really responsible for ice dams, and it's not your roofer.
