The final walk down also proved to be encouraging as well, with everything put back in its place! I wouldn't hesitate hiring them again in the future ever! They were GREAT!!"

"I have nothing but postive things to say about Nick and Randy. Based on other quotes they were way less for same required depth of insulation. They were on third less than nearest quote for same material. They are returning this day to spray my crawl space foundation. They did an excellent job and cleaned up after themselves even though I offered to do the cleaning. A+"

"I hired David and Brian to spray insulation in the attic and the outside walls of my home.. They also incapsulated my crawl space. When they came to quote the job, I knew almost immediately that these men knew their profession. They explained all what had to be done. They explained things on my level so I could understand. They did a great job. I really appreciate them for doing such a wonderful job. They are fair in their pricing. They are great people. If you need any kind of insulation work done, call David and Brian. They are nice and respectful. They even moved furniture and appliances to get to every outside wall. I am amazed at their work. I cannot find enough words to tell them how thankful I am."
The primary downside of radiant barriers is their limited effectiveness in cold climates. They are designed to reflect radiant heat, making them less beneficial in cooler conditions where heat retention is more important.
Radiant barriers require proper installation to maximize effectiveness. Incorrect placement can lead to minimal benefits. They also do not provide insulation, meaning they should be used in conjunction with traditional insulation for optimal energy efficiency.
There are two reasons why cellulose insulation repels rodents (and insects). First, the insulation has been treated with boric acid, which is a natural pest-repellent. In addition, the loose-fill style of cellulose creates less-than-ideal conditions for mice and other rodents to nest and burrow, helping to keep them at bay.
Excluding carpet, strand-woven bamboo provides excellent underfoot heat. Laminate flooring is also good for insulation and preventing cold feet in the winter. Bamboo tends to work better in climates that have more consistent temperatures, while laminate does a better job at insulating floors in homes that experience more extreme temperature changes, such as the deciduous climates of the northeastern U.S.
On average, insulating an attic costs about $2,500, with a typical range of $1,500 to $3,500. The final price often depends on the attic's size, with costs generally falling between $1 to $3 per square foot. For example, insulating a 1,800-square-foot attic would likely cost between $1,800 and $5,400.
If the project involves removing old insulation, this can add an average of $900 to the total cost, bringing a full removal and reinsulation project to around $3,000.
Several factors influence the overall cost:
Insulation Type: Prices per square foot vary significantly by material.
Reflective: $0.50–$1.50
Blown-in: $1–$4
Batt: $2–$4
Loose-fill: $2–$5
Spray foam: $2–$5
Structural insulated panels (SIPs): $4–$7
Project Complexity: Factors like sealing air leaks, poor attic accessibility, and required inspections can add to the cost.
Removal Issues: The discovery of mold, asbestos, or pests during the removal of old insulation can substantially increase the price.
A plastic vapor barrier should completely cover your basement to prevent water from penetrating through the walls. This typically goes before installing insulation to prevent moisture from building up and becoming trapped on the inside of your insulation, where it can collect and lead to mold damage. Installing insulation after the vapor barrier allows for any moisture to exit the walls for better ventilation.
