Insulating Northville’s Historic and New Homes
Northville is known for its historic downtown and the well-kept Victorian and early-1900s homes around it, alongside newer upscale developments toward Novi and Plymouth. The older homes are charming but leaky — plaster walls, uninsulated cavities and generous air gaps make them costly to heat and prone to cold spots. Newer Northville homes usually have more insulation, but often still lack proper air sealing at the attic and rim joist.
