Bermuda Run Insulation FAQs
Is any house in Bermuda Run listed as historic?
No, by every state record we checked. The town has one National Register listing, added in 2010: the Win-Mock Farm Dairy, which is a dairy barn, a granary and a concrete-block bottling plant from about 1930. And when the state listed local preservation commissions county by county in 2023, Davie had none. So no historic designation applies to attic work on a Bermuda Run home.
Why does the bonus room over my Bermuda Run garage swing hot and cold?
Most likely because it is wrapped on several sides by spaces that are not heated or cooled. Census estimates put most of the town's homes in 1970 or later, and a bonus room is the one part of a newer house that is rarely simple. Its floor sits above the garage and its side walls often face small attics. Building America guidance says to air seal that floor and keep its insulation pressed against the subfloor. The short walls and the attic pockets beside the room need sealing and insulating as well.
Does attic insulation in Bermuda Run need a permit?
Bermuda Run Town Hall can say whether Davie County Building Inspection, the town itself or another office handles permits in Bermuda Run; ask before work starts.
