A Queens, NY Event That Showed How Small Fixes Create Big Savings
NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- This weekend in Queens, New York, Trice Contracting Inc. opened its doors — and its toolbox — to educate homeowners and property managers on one of the most overlooked elements of energy efficiency and home comfort: window caulking.
While it may not have the flash of a full remodel or the dramatic transformation of new flooring, professional window caulking can mean the difference between a drafty, inefficient home and a sealed, secure space that stays warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
And Trice Contracting is here to make sure you never underestimate the power of a perfect seal.
A Community Event with Purpose
Titled "Seal the Deal for Comfort and Efficiency," this local event brought together residents, building owners, and curious DIYers for a hands-on, informative experience that covered:
- The importance of proper caulking around windows and doors
- How air leaks affect your energy bills — and your health
- Demonstrations of industry-grade caulking tools and techniques
- Signs your home is due for re-caulking
- One-on-one consultations with Trice experts
From start to finish, the event emphasized one core idea: small upgrades can have a massive impact.
One attendee, John Franklyn, a Queens homeowner of 25 years, remarked, "I had no idea how much money I was losing through these old window gaps. This was eye-opening - and the Trice team made it so easy to understand."
Why Window Caulking Matters More Than You Think
Trice Contracting's team explained that over 30% of heating and cooling loss in buildings can come from poor window seals. But it's not just about energy:
- Improper sealing invites moisture, which can lead to mold, mildew, and rot.
- Drafts create inconsistent temperatures, forcing HVAC systems to work harder - which shortens their lifespan.
- Good caulking boosts indoor air quality by keeping out dust, allergens, and pollutants.
And with NYC's ever-changing seasons, window caulking isn't just maintenance - it's protection.
A Look Into Trice's Process
Live demos showed just how meticulous Trice Contracting is when applying fresh sealant. From prep and removal of old caulk to clean application of high-performance materials, their process was clean, efficient, and professional - with long-lasting results.
Visitors were also treated to before-and-after photos from local Queens projects, many amazed at how a simple service could make such a visible and functional difference.
Sealing the Deal - One Window at a Time
For Trice Contracting Inc., this event wasn't just about showing off skills — it was about building trust and giving back to the community.
Event-only discounts were available for those who scheduled a home inspection or caulking service on-site, and many took advantage of the opportunity.
