"I give this company an A for doing the job for a good price. I give them an overall grade of B because if you need them to come out and make repairs on the work they just finished, you have to text message them every day to get them to come out. I have one piece of siding that needs to be put back up, and have been waiting more than six weeks because I forget to text them every day. I really want to give them an A, but I just can't. Have been waiting too long for them to re-hang that one piece of siding."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Unfaced wall insulation is easier to cut and install, making it the better choice for a DIY project. It’s also more affordable. But if it’s unfaced, you’ll likely need to add a vapor barrier to reach your desired R-value and efficiency, as it doesn’t offer any moisture barrier.

Faced insulation uses paper or foil to create a built-in barrier and doesn’t require an extra step. It’s also more fire-resistant and safe. But it’s quite a bit more expensive and a little bit harder to work with as a DIYer.

On average, attic insulation costs $1 to $3 per square foot, so for a 1,800-square-foot attic, you’d pay $1,800 to $5,400, including materials and labor. The cost can vary depending on what type of insulation you use, how many insulation layers you need, and whether you need to remove existing insulation first.

For your safety, you should always wear a mask when cutting batts of fiberglass insulation. We also recommend wearing eye protection, safety gloves, and long sleeves to protect your skin. Properly suiting up helps you avoid several fiberglass issues, such as cuts from the tiny shards of glass and inhaling small bits of fiberglass.

The thickness of floor insulation will depend on the R-value you plan to achieve. R-value varies on the type of material as well as its thickness and density. Insulation materials with low R-values can be layered to match the value of denser materials. As long as your floor insulation is packed tightly, seals the area from drafts, and doesn’t prevent ventilation, it can be as thick (or thin) as you need.

While more is seemingly always better when it comes to energy efficiency, your house does need some interaction with its environment. Adding too much insulation can affect your home's ability to breathe. Breathing simply means ventilating itself to reduce accumulated moisture within it. Too much insulation can physically block the venting ability or be enough to trap the moisture and damage the insulation or the house.
