"The Home Genius Exteriors team does excellent work. From the initial quote to the final walk through they are professional, patient, and, perhaps most importantly, available. I'm not completely "roofing naive" and I can say that their craftsmanship is top notch. They are a bit pricey in my opinion BUT I believe it to be a "you get what you pay for situation." You will certainly be in safe and certain hands with Mike, Walter, Luis and company. I would 100% keep them in mind for future projects."

"I wanted reflective foil installed under the joist in my attic to help cut attic Heat. The Cronkhite sales rep suggested their own insulated foil product, which I deemed Superior to what I had planned. They installed their material, we're careful about the blown in attic insulation and stepping on the existing ceiling joists. they did a good job, in a timely manner, for a job that was difficult, hot and not very pleasant."

"The team were very professional, owner came at end of day to check up on quality of job (I asked him to look at my attic insulation, he could have easily conned me into paying for more - he didnt, and told me I didnt really need it... he found another insulation issue but recommended I solve it DIY style!)... so he wasnt interested in the $$$$.... Once he found I was happy with work he left me an invoice, no pressure to pay on the spot. The work has done exactly what he promised and I can recommend using them."

"Neil did the job fantastically and explained what he was doing throughout, always asked for an inspection to make sure it was done to my satisfaction. Pricing was extremely fair and he was timely and quick. Would highly recommend for any insulation work you need done. Can’t speak on the other work he does, but if it’s on par with what he did for me, then you’d be doing well."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Installing sheets of plywood over attic insulation is a popular choice, especially in storage spaces. That said, insulation works by trapping hot air—so it needs extra space to expand and be effective, or you might reduce the energy efficiency of your home. 

It’s important that you never compress the insulation by installing flooring directly on top of it. In many houses, you’ll need to install a subfloor before putting plywood over insulation in your attic.

Spray foam insulation can last between 80 and 100 years, depending on the type. Closed-cell spray foam is more durable, while open-cell foam is more susceptible to moisture damage and deterioration. It's important to consult a professional installer to understand which type of foam will be used and its specific longevity. Additionally, be aware that some spray foams can damage plastic piping, so if you have PVC or CPVC pipes, discuss this with your installer.

Air duct insulation typically lasts for 10 to 15 years or even longer, depending on the material and maintenance. It's important to conduct periodic inspections to check for signs of deterioration, such as water damage, tears, or general wear. If you find any of these issues, it may be time for repairs or a full replacement. You might also consider upgrading your insulation even if it's in good shape to improve your home's energy efficiency and enhance your HVAC system's performance with newer, more effective materials.

The cost to install a radiant barrier ranges from $700 to $2,800, depending on the size of your roof and the type you choose. Most people pay an average of $1,700 to install a radiant barrier. Foil options, both single- and double-sided, cost between $0.10 and $0.90 per square foot, while spray-on options start at $0.60 and go all the way up to $1 per square foot—which can add up quickly.

To cover your HVAC ducts and air vents during construction, use plastic sheets or drop cloths secured with painter's tape. Be sure to cover all supply vents on your floors and walls, as well as the larger HVAC return vent, which is typically on the ceiling. While canvas drop cloths can also be used, they may not catch all the fine dust. It is crucial to shut off your HVAC system or at least the zone where construction is happening. Running the system with vents sealed can put significant strain on the blower motor and air handler. For additional dust containment, you can also hang plastic sheets over doorways to separate the construction area from the rest of your home.
