Bioheating Cooling Plumbing Electrical GREAT INSTALLATIONS We talk a lot about our outstanding products but it s always better to show and tell. That s why we re pleased to feature photos of 3 jobs we recently tackled and some nice words from the customers we helped. 1. Attic encapsulation featuring AirTight spray foam insulation Dallas Quick had E.T. Lawson install AirTight spray foam attic insulation in the attic of his Newport News home. Installing spray foam as a barrier between the home and the outside environment is one of the best methods to insulate and air-seal any surface with a single product and it consistently outperforms traditional fiberglass insulation. AirTight is a great product... you get more bang for your buck. 2. two bath remodels featuring Bath Planet products Christina Mosely has two new Bath Planet remodels in her home, thanks to E.T. Lawson. With a wide selection of acrylic bath system solutions, along with cutting-edge accessible options, you can have a beautiful yet accommodating bathroom remodel in as little as one day. 2 I have a 1950s home with dated bathrooms. My Bath Planet remodels are beautiful! The installers were courteous and neat, and the cost was unbeatable. 3. Crawl space encapsulation (and more) This large project is indicative of what can go wrong if crawl spaces are left to themselves in tidal or low areas. E.T. Lawson s sales manager R.A. Allsbrook installed crawl space encapsulation and a new dehumidifier, and replaced joists at a church parsonage in Hampton. No miracles needed just excellent work by the E.T. Lawson team! There was lots of moisture under the house and we needed to remedy the situation. E.T. Lawson did a great job of making a great, clean crawl space.

According to the International Energy Agency, the United States will become the world s largest oil producer by around 2020, overtaking Saudi Arabia, as new exploration technologies help find more resources. In its World Energy Outlook, the organization also predicted that greater oil production and more efficient use of energy will allow the United States, which now imports about 20% of its energy, to become nearly self-sufficient around 2035. By 2015, U.S. oil production is expected to rise to 10 million barrels per day before increasing to 11.1 million barrels per day by 2020, overtaking second-place Russia and front-runner Saudi Arabia. The U.S. will export more oil than it imports by 2030. Here at E.T. Lawson, we ve always assured our customers of a dependable supply of fuel, because we own and operate a 400,000-gallon oil storage facility in Hampton.
