What We Do for Windham Homeowners
Insulation
Lakefront cottages on Sebago and Little Sebago were built for summer and have little to no insulation. They need comprehensive upgrades from foundation to roof. Newer homes in North Windham subdivisions meet code but benefit from attic improvements to R-50 and wall insulation beyond minimums.
Insulation in WindhamHeat Pumps
Converted lakefront cottages rarely have ductwork, making ductless mini-splits ideal. They provide both heating and cooling without major renovation. Windham's inland climate runs colder than the coast, but modern cold-climate heat pumps handle these temperatures efficiently, reducing oil and propane consumption significantly.

Converted lakefront cottages have significant air leakage through original framing that was never designed for winter use. Even newer homes along Route 302 benefit from air sealing at rim joists and attic penetrations. With colder inland winters, sealing these gaps pays back faster in reduced heating costs.

Why Windham Homeowners Choose Horizon Homes
We understand the unique challenges of lakefront, rural, and suburban homes in Windham.
Converted Lakefront Cottages
Many lakefront properties on Sebago and Little Sebago started as seasonal cottages and have been converted to year-round homes. These conversions often left major insulation gaps: thin walls, uninsulated floors, and minimal attic coverage. We specialize in bringing these homes up to year-round standards.
Colder Inland Winters
Without the ocean's moderating effect, Windham sees winter temperatures 5-10 degrees colder than Portland. More heating degree days means higher fuel costs and faster payback on insulation and air sealing. The Route 302 corridor has a mix of housing ages that all benefit from weatherization.
12 miles Up Route 302
We reach Windham from Westbrook via Route 302 in about 20 minutes. North Windham, South Windham, and the lakefront areas are all within easy range. No travel fees for any Windham address.
What Our Customers Say
"No more cold floors, no more drafts in the living room. The difference after insulation and air sealing was immediate and dramatic. I wish I had done this years ago. Horizon handled the Efficiency Maine rebate. I didn't have to do a thing."
"The crew was meticulous. They sealed every penetration before blowing in the insulation, explained exactly what they were doing, and left the attic cleaner than they found it. Our heating bill dropped noticeably the very first month."
"Horizon Homes is excellent. They have supported us for a number of projects across insulation and carpentry and I can't recommend them enough. Cody is extremely thoughtful and has supported us over hours on the phone answering questions."
