Dolphin Insulation has completely changed the traditional approach to insulating homes with our very unique processes and materials installed by highly skilled specialists. Ultimately, we create for homeowners the perfect indoor, all-season climate for them no matter how hot, cold, or even noisy it is outside. Our customers tell us their entire living experience in their home has been improved 100% after we insulate.

"We cannot say enough good things about Dolphin Insulation. They replaced the existing insulation in our entire house and addressed some mold related issues we came across along the way. We are delighted with the results. Our house is much tighter and drafts we used to feel are gone. The whole process took about 2 weeks, including removing the old insulation, prepping and blowing in the new insulation. We are talking about the roof over a bedroom over a double garage, the main house and the cathedral ceiling for a family room. Go to their website and see some of the projects they have tackled. What you see is what you get. From our very first contact right through the installation process everyone we came into contact with was professional, informative and very helpful. Dolphin was upfront on their timing for the project, in what was their busiest time of the year, and called us ahead of time to let us know they were running a day or two late. All the crew who came to our house throughout the process were polite, friendly, hardworking and took the time to answer any questions we had. They were flexible and worked around other contractors who were in our house at the same time. Dolphin adapted to issues that cropped which resulted in more work that they took on. Every day they cleaned up after themselves as best they could. Amanda, the owner, even stopped by towards the end to bring over some parts they need to protect lights in our family room. It is also clear everyone believes in the technology they use, and that what they do is more than just a job for the crew. As far as we are concerned this is the best and greenest insulation solution out there. It takes time to install but it is well worth it. No toxic fumes and you don't have to move out of your house. This is not the cheapest solution you can come across but it is worth every penny."

"We couldn't be happier with the entire process. The job was done meticulously. Everyone was professional. All of our questions were answered. They took time to go through the space in length and even noticed additional spots that needed attention that they offered to fix within the budget that we had. Everything was cleaned up nicely afterwards. We have additional projects that we will be working on in the future and we will definitely use this company again."

"We can’t say enough good things about Celio Prado Painting. For a very reasonable price, Douglas’s crew safely removed nearly all of the flaking lead paint from our house and repainted, as well as painting the garage. Douglas’s crew was very hardworking, efficient, and friendly. They really went above and beyond, too: for example, we had a loose clapboard where a cable runs into the house, and they reattached it. They also stripped the lead paint from the interior of our back vestibule for us, even though it isn’t technically part of the exterior, without charging us extra for it. We’ve gotten a lot of positive feecback from neighbors, commenting both on how beautiful the paint job is and how friendly the crew was."

Today, historic restoration of homes must involve solving the challenge of rising heating/cooling costs and frustrating drafts and noise pollution. The mission at FPP & theweatherstrip.com is to provide the homeowner a lower cost and historically sensitive alternative to expensive replacement strategies. Historic restoration and energy conservation are not mutually exclusive. We welcome the opportunity of introducing our services to you. "Stay warm, Be cool…"

"Fred and his small, family-run team carefully removed, dipped, stripped and completely restored all the amazing original windows in our home. The windows were falling apart from decades of neglect when we bought our house a few years ago. We debated replacing them, but each sash has three panes of stained glass above two panes of clear glass, much of that original (probably cylinder glass). Also, the five windows on the first floor are over six feet tall, with the windows on the second floor maybe a foot shorter. Point being, any new window would have to be custom made, and it is highly unlikely we could find, let alone afford, a carpenter to custom design and build fourteen huge, double sash windows with stained glass. So I found Fred off a Google search. He came to see the windows and his enthusiasm for the windows' craftsmanship and confidence that he could restore them, and that full restoration would cost a fraction of replacement, won us over immediately. Fred clearly explained his process and our options and sent various estimates so we could decide what we wanted to do. Our windows are amazing. The sash chains are all new and work without issue. All the old, chipped, falling apart glaze is gone and replaced. And the wood is the best part. Many of the windows were literally falling part from dry rot. Thanks to the skillful application of epoxy and stain, the windows shine. Fred answered all our questions, recommended a great place for window hardware, and did excellent work on the windows and jambs. Full restoration can easily take two months. Fred has a small operation, does high quality work, and is in high demand. Be patient and you won't be disappointed."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

If you’re moving wires, installing new wires, or installing new fixtures in the space you’re insulating, then you will need to hire a licensed electrician to do that portion of the job for you. However, if you just intend on replacing old insulation or adding new insulation over existing insulation, then you don’t need to hire one. Your insulation installer will work around wiring, fixtures, outlets, and switches, even if they’re installing fiberglass batts in the voids where wires run. However, you will need an electrician if you suspect a problem with your wiring during the insulation work.

The most affordable way to insulate behind unfinished walls is to install fiberglass batts or rolls. These total around $0.75 per linear foot, with the width matching the gaps between standard studs perfectly. However, it’s important to consider the R-value of your insulation and the climate in your area, as fiberglass insulation isn’t the best in terms of preventing heat transfer. Plus, the most affordable option may cost more on electricity bills over time. The most affordable way to insulate behind finished walls is to leave them up and use blown-in insulation to avoid drywall replacement.

STC (Sound Transmission Class) ratings tell you how well something blocks airborne noise. It’s a single number that sums up how much sound a material, like a window, can stop across regular speech frequencies. The higher the number, the better the sound reduction. A typical single-pane window hovers around STC 25 (where you can hear normal conversations), while well-sealed, double-pane options can push past STC 45 (which blocks out loud speech and most music). Just keep in mind that STC doesn’t cover everything—low rumbles like bass or thunder can sneak through—so pairing methods are always ideal for the most peace and quiet.

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.

The life span of insulation is between 20 and 100 years. At that time, existing insulation can fall victim to gravity, resulting in compression, which reduces its insulating protection or R-value. If you can't simply add more insulation over the existing material, removing the old to increase the effectiveness of the new can reduce your energy bills and make the project worth the time and money investment.
