"Our crawl space now has an R19 insulation value, the musty smell is completely gone and it is a usable space which we are using as storage which is awesome!  We had a 20' x 10' storage space that is no longer needed, the crawl space was more than enough room to put all that stuff into.  I bought a mechanics dolly so getting around the crawl space is easy, it is a clean, dry well insulated space now!  The crew that did the work was professional, courteous, on time and did a great job!  Their estimator/project manager Jason was a pleasure to deal with from the the time he came out to look at the job to when it was finished.  He has integrity and is responsive, he is trustworthy which is very important to me, I am in the mechanical contracting business and deal with sub-contractors on a daily basis so everything I have written not only comes from a personal experience as a homeowner but as a professional.  You will not be disappointed in any way using this company!"

"Roberto was the technician and he was very professional, polite, and personable. He inspected the rest of our system and told us things that needed to be changed or repaired. He showed me pictures of everything. Everything he told me about was accurate. He quoted me a price for R38 insulation , Some of our ducts were plastic and he recommended them to be changed. I agreed completely and didn't know they were plastic. I would have had them done the work but I had no price comparisons to make and besides I didn't have the money right then. So he just finished the vent cleaning and left his card. He did a great job on the vent cleaning and was happy with the work."

"Excellent, family-run business. I called on Monday afternoon about adding insulation and the job was *completed* within 48 hours. The estimator (company co-owner) recommended reasonable solutions and did not try to "sell" me on things I didn't need. The installers were very courteous, showed up early, cleaned up well, and even put my stuff they had to move right back where they found it. I wish I called them years ago. Very pleased with this job and company."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Ideally, you can add new insulation to your existing insulation. However, some circumstances require you to remove old insulation before adding any new insulation: 

  • If the insulation is over 15 years old

  • If the insulation is wet or moldy

  • If it is vermiculite insulation

  • If you see signs of pest infestation

Removing old insulation is best left to a pro who can safely dispose of potential moldy or asbestos-ridden insulation.

Garage door insulation can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance. 

Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials—like fiberglass—last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.

Mold can grow on garage ceiling insulation, which is why it’s important to install a vapor barrier behind the insulation and keep the space cooled and heated as you would your living area. Doing so will more or less eliminate the risk of mold growing on your garage ceiling insulation. You can also install a self-draining dehumidifier to help remove moisture, or opt for a foam board insulation or spray foam insulation that won’t harbor moisture and mold.

Yes, crawl space insulation is worth it if installed correctly. Installing insulation in your crawl space will improve the air quality, help stabilize your home's temperature, lower your energy bills, and prevent pests from entering your home. Though you’ll pay more to install insulation initially, the savings you get from installing insulation can help offset those initial costs over time.

Exposed ductwork can sweat just like ductwork placed behind walls, sometimes even more so. Ductwork sweats—like a cold drink on a hot day—because of a temperature imbalance between the air in the duct and the air in the room. In a crawl space or wall, this temperature can equalize faster due to the small space but in lofts and open rooms, that wouldn’t happen as quickly. Many people insulate their ducts for this reason.
