We offer spray foam and blown-in insulation, as well as air barriers and soundproofing to boost your energy efficiency and elevate your indoor comfort.

An attic that is properly insulated can significantly reduce your heating and cooling costs throughout the year by stabilizing your home’s indoor temperatures. This can also reduce wear and tear on your HVAC system, prolonging its lifespan and saving you money on repair and replacement.

There are several different types of attic insulation, including fiberglass batts, cellulose, and foam board. Each one has its own advantages and disadvantages, and it is important to choose the right type based on your climate and home needs.

Benefits of Upgrading Your Attic Insulation

A common and affordable option, fiberglass batt insulation is made from a combination of tiny glass fibers woven together with cotton batting. It is relatively fire-resistant, but does not insulate as well as some other options.

Another popular DIY choice, blown-in cellulose insulation is made from recycled newspaper, cardboard, and other materials that are treated with boric acid. It is more fire-resistant than a blanket of fiberglass and more effective in reducing heat loss than fiberglass.

Finally, loose-fill attic insulation is made from a variety of different materials such as fiberglass, cellulose, rockwool, and vermiculite. It is blown into place using a special machine and works best in attics with standard joist spacing, few obstacles to work around, and sufficient headroom for maneuvering.
