Why Insulation?
Insulation is a crucially important aspect of your home, yet few people actually grasp what it accomplishes. Because we rarely see the insulating material in our homes, we tend to ignore it.
Insulation is crucial to keeping comfortable temperatures in your home. Inserted into walls and attics, insulation keeps warm air in, and in the summers, allows your home to cool.
Without insulation, your home or building would be exceedingly uncomfortable, especially in high heat, or cold. Homes lacking sufficient insulation are also too expensive to heat and cool, meaning a hefty cost to homeowners.
Insulation complements your HVAC (your heating and AC systems) by holding the warm or cooled air it produces, so your system doesn’t need to work as hard. This has the added benefit of resulting in huge financial savings.
As a homeowner, we want to help you get the insulation you need. Are you building a new home or renovating an old one and in need of insulation? We can help, and we guarantee we’ll get the job done well. Do you need an evaluation? We can do that tool
Think there may be an issue with your insulation? It’s worth checking into. For one, there’s the safety factor. Incorrectly installed or broken insulation could constitute a fire danger, and put your home at risk. More practically, though, insufficient or badly placed insulation could be costing you money in heating and air conditioning. Some estimates say that good insulation can save roughly 15 percent on energy expenditures. Having to live with a home that is either too hot or too chilly depending on the season is too much to ignore.

Insulation Services
Wall Insulation
Visit
We install and repair wall insulation. If you are building a home, starting a project, or conducting repair work, we can help. We can also install any type of insulation in your walls - and can help you achieve your renovation and insulation goals. Your home's ability to retain heat in the winter and cool air in the summer is dependent on proper wall insulation. Surprisingly, many structures have inadequate or non-existent insulation within their walls. This can result in less-than-ideal interior conditions and increased heating and cooling costs. Furthermore, these conditions may cause your HVAC systems to work harder, causing additional wear and resulting in future maintenance expenditures. |
Crawlspace Insulation
Visit
To begin with, what exactly do we mean by "crawlspace"? A crawlspace is a place beneath your home with a dirt floor and your home's floor above it. Because chilly air rises directly from the ground and might infiltrate into your home, this is a high-risk region for heat loss. These areas are frequently overlooked or neglected, and they rarely receive the care they require. Consider this: if any of your HVAC or heating utilities (such as a water heater) are placed in your crawlspace, cold or hot air may be forcing them to work harder, causing your energy costs to rise. Insulate your crawlspace to keep this from happening. Crawlspace insulation is oftentimes overlooked - let us help fix that. |
Air Sealing
Visit
Air sealing is exactly what it sounds like: our experts will come to your home and, through a thorough process, identify any leaks, cracks, or crevices where external air is entering or escaping your home. Then we'll use an appropriate insulating material to seal them. When it comes to lowering heating and cooling expenditures and maintaining a consistent temperature in your home, airflow like this is the enemy. While a small 1.5 millimeter crack around a window may not seem like much, when you add several of them together, you're losing a lot of heat - and allowing chilly air into your home. This makes it difficult to maintain a comfortable temperature. |
Attic Insulation
Visit
We install and repair attic insulation. Attics that are properly insulated keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer while also reducing energy costs. Companies may tend to move quickly while insulating attics, which can make them an afterthought - which could be costing you money. Your heat will seep out of your home through your attic if you don't have sufficient insulation (and a professional installation job), and your energy costs will rise. We can make sure your attic is adequately insulated to avoid this. Unsure if you need attic insulation or any work done? Let us conduct a home energy audit to determine your needs. |
Basement Insulation
Visit
We have a solution for you if your basement is cold and drafty – or if you don't want to spend time there because it's damp and depressing. Basement insulation can be utilized to totally refurbish and liberate a potentially enormous space in your home: the basement. Our crew has worked on basement insulation projects before, and we can help you transform that room into something interesting and pleasant - simply by adding insulation! Basement insulation can help to produce a warmer or cooler basement room, limit mold and mildew, seal and insulate air leakage in your home, and create a usable space where one previously did not exist. Take advantage of our services and combine with other services as you reclaim your home! |
Spray Foam Insulation
Visit
One of our most popular services is spray foam insulation. We'll work with you to identify areas of your home that need more insulation during a spray foam insulation installation. We'll go over various options with you, such as open and closed cell and cellulose insulation, and we'll decide what's best together. Then, depending on your needs, our crew may install insulation in the basement, attic, walls, and other areas of your home. Spray foam insulation outperforms most types of solid insulation (depending on the application) because it fills gaps and crevices that other insulation types miss. Filling existing walls, filling around joists and supports, injecting into small or tight closed spaces, and adding to attics are all fantastic uses for spray foam. |
Garage Insulation
Visit
Garage insulation may or may not be necessary for your home, depending on how your structure is built. Here’s the bottom line: if your garage is detached from the home, you don’t need to worry about insulating it. If your garage is attached to your home, you should carefully consider ensuring it is well insulated. If your garage is independent but you have a bonus room or other heated or cooled space above it, you should consider insulating it as well. Our team has a lot of garage insulation experience and would love to assist you with your garage insulation project. |
Home Energy Assessments
Visit
Our staff does home energy assessments to see where you may save money by adding more insulation. Our experts will come to your home and utilize a number of tools and procedures to assess your home's energy use and loss, as well as identify cost-saving opportunities (such as insulation). We examine the kind, age, condition, and installation of insulation throughout your home. We look for air leakage areas throughout your home where warm air is escaping and cold air could be entering, as well as appliances (such HVAC and water heater systems) that may be inadequately insulated. |
General Insulation Services
Visit
Don't see something specific here that you need? Give us a call - there's a good chance we can assist you. Need a quote or a second opinion on a project or work statement? We can do that. Need assistance as you plan a project, but aren't ready to commit? Give us a call. We look forward to meeting you and understanding your needs! |
Commercial Insulation Services
Visit
We do commercial insulation in addition to residential insulation. Our commercial service offerings are similar to our residential - just at a larger scale. We're experienced in working according to your project plan alongside other contractors. We offer commercial spray foam insulation, wall and wall cavity insulation, expanding foam, and a number of other services. Call today to inquire. |

Insulation as an Important Part of Renovation Projects:
Are you considering home renovations this year? Perhaps you’re ready to add space to your home, re-claim a basement or bonus room, or just give your home a facelift. In any case, consider insulation as an important element of any project. While vanities, paint, and crown molding are all important considerations – we urge you to consider the aspects of your home you can’t see – namely your insulation. If you’re taking the time (and investing the money) on home improvement projects, remember that adequate and properly installed insulation can save you money in the long run, and will increase the value of your home. Plus, it will enhance the comfort of your home, as proper insulation helps to keep your house cool in the Summer, and warm in the Winter.
All too often, insulation is an afterthought on many home improvement or renovation projects. This is likely because we don’t see it, aren’t used to installing insulation on our own, and probably don’t think much about it. Plus, most people spend far more time planning and preparing for the aspects of the project that are easy to see. Insulation typically isn’t one of these! But we urge you to remember insulation as you plan. Why? Because these types of projects represent great opportunities to install new insulation, or upgrade what you already have. Depending on your project, you will already have removed furniture, cut holes in your wall, and conducted other work. Your walls, ceilings, and crevices will be accessible – meaning adding a spray foam or roll insulation will be easy.
This “bare bones” stage is when it is typically easiest to add insulation, as you will have the maximum ability to get at those harder to reach spaces and add insulation. This can also be an optimal time for a air seepage or air leakage test. Air leaks commonly occur around windows, doors, frames, piping, and where materials join together. If you’re renovating a room with windows, now is a great time to identify spaces where air is entering your home – and quickly seal them. This can make bedrooms, rooms adjacent to garages, and basements more comfortable, and could help you achieve the goal of your renovation.
Is the room you’re renovating frequently cold in the Winter, and too hot in the Summer? Perhaps you’re working on a basement that always seems to be colder than the rest of your house. Sure, cold air sinks into your basement – but basements are also typically under-insulated because most builders skimp on that room in favor of the other spaces in your home. This is the perfect opportunity to add insulation – either to a crawlspace under your home, to piping or a furnace in your basement, or to the walls. Rolled insulation, or spray foam insulation are great options for these types of projects, and can help create more hospitable spaces in your home, but also take the strain off of water heaters and HVAC systems. Plus, insulation will help make your home a more enjoyable place for you and your family.
Insulation is a cost-effective method for increasing the comfort and value of your home – plus, properly installed insulation will save you money, and place less strain on your home’s HVAC systems. Home improvement projects are the perfect time to assess your insulation needs – and to add insulation where it makes sense. Unsure of where or how to add insulation during your project? No worries. Give us a call today. We’re happy to tackle your insulation project with you, and can’t wait to help make your home the best it can be!

What’s the difference between insulation types?
Spray Foam insulation
Spray foam insulation is immensely popular among homes due to its relatively inexpensive nature, ease of application, and money-saving property. As you can expect, spray foam insulation is sprayed into a space. As it sets, spray foam insulation expands and entirely fills the gap. It morphs around and fills in gaps between wood and pipes and other objects in walls. Because spray foam produces a continuous surface, it is highly successful in keeping heat in, moisture out, and reducing drafty conditions. There are a number of varieties of spray foam insulation, including open and closed foam insulations. We’ll work with you to identify the appropriate type of insulation for you, and will install it quickly and efficiently as you continue to work on your project.
Rigid Board Insulation
Rigid Board is known in many circles (and businesses) “Foam Board.” As the name says, this insulation is comprised of highly hard material and can endure a lot of punishment. The material comes in board panels which is specially produced from a dense, durable foam. Not only do these solid blocks keep heat or cold; they also prevent noise from travelling to adjacent rooms. Rigid board is also extremely company and is suited for specialized purposes.
Mineral Wool
Mineral Wool is constructed of a few distinct components, and comes in a couple different forms. Mineral wool itself is formed of furnace slag, raw insulting materials, and rock – curiously. It occurs in a few forms, including batt, a blown-in consistency, and board. Mineral wool is particularly adaptable in this aspect, considering its many forms. Mineral wool may go anyplace in your home, and is very effective in adding a layer of fire prevention to your home or structure.
Cellulose Insulation Material
Cellulose insulation is created from a range of recycling materials, organic resources (including plants) and other environmentally beneficial items. This makes it one of the most environmentally friendly solutions for insulation. Cellulose insulation comes in a batt fill or loose fill type, and is effective when blown in to walls and open spaces. Ask our team about cellulose, especially if you’re interested in the most environmentally friendly solutions for insulation.
Blown-In Blanket System (BIBS)
The Blown-in Blanket System (BIBS) is an intriguing composite insulation that incorporates two separate insulation techniques. First, a loose insulation is blown into a wall region or crack. Then, a net barrier consisting of different materials is added, which greatly boosts both the retention of conditioned or heated air, and limits noise travel. This is a useful insulation choice near noisy piping, machinery, or in places you’d wish to insulate and trap sound in.
Reflective Insulation
Reflective insulation is exactly what it sounds like — created from reflective material, reflective insulation works by reflecting radiants, heat, and sun, and lowering heat absorption. By directing heat energy away from a protected surface, reflective insulation bounces warm energy back towards the source. This is extremely valuable in hot climates, and can help to cut expenses associated with cooling structures in these warm locations.
Fiberglass Insulation
Fiberglass Insulation also comes in a few variants; including rolled, batt, FSK faced, foil, or kraft composite. These varied materials make fiberglass insulation a terrific (and flexible) alternative for your projects – since you may select the specific type that best meets your demands. Fiberglass insulation can operate practically everywhere in a structure as well – making it that much more convenient.
