"I would highly recommend John P. Insulation. I got three quotes for my insulation job and they were the most professional during the estimate. They provided pictures of what they were going to do. They fully explained the job and what I should expect. The quote was fast and equal or lass than the others. On the installation day, they arrived when they said they would, covered my floors and completed the work exactly as they said they would. I had them foam seal, blow in insulation, install soffit vents and vent a bathroom fan. You will not be disappointed in the quality."

"Jacob and his team were great ! Everyone was super nice. I felt very comfortable in what I was told in regards to what needed to be done. After talking to many different insulation companies this was the only one that knew what I needed done and was able to do it at a great pirce. They managed to finish same day which was amazing. The results are so nice ! We didn't know what to expect as the end result since this is my first time dealing with insulation problems. But everything looks great !! I will definitely be going to them for any future projects. A million thanks to them ! I highly recommend these guys for your insulation needs. A trustworthy and hard working company."

"Our central air conditioning system failed during the worst heat and humidity streak in more than a decade. When our AC contractor arrived to look at replacing the system, he pointed out that none of our 3 attics were insulated. We called Coleman Spray Foam. The put a highly knowledgeable rep on-site in less than 24 hours. One day later we received and signed their proposal. Crews arrived 2 days later and worked in unbearable heat and humidity in our attics until we had R50 insulation (needed for AC/Heat Pump). I would have them back in a heartbeat and highly recommend them for anyone in need of spray foam insulation."

"I highly recommend Green Way. The folks from Green Way were professional and they delivered high quality work at a great price. The work involved applying foam to exposed roof deck in the attic, and applying blow-in insulation between unexposed roof deck the interior walls. I'm very pleased with the outcome."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

The amount of insulation you need will vary depending on where you live. Energy Star recommends certain minimum insulation values in different geographic regions. In most cases, however, even adding a little insulation is better than not adding any.

In addition to adding insulation to your attic, you may want to add a radiant barrier. A radiant barrier works by using reflective material, such as foil, on the attic floor. As heat penetrates the roof and enters the attic, the radiant barrier reflects the heat upward and back through the roof. If you receive a lot of direct sunlight on the roof, using both a radiant barrier and insulation in your attic can provide significant benefits.

You don’t need to staple insulation, as your drywall and studs will hold it into place. But if you already have a staple gun and staples lying around, it can help keep the product in place and avoid any shifting. But, most experts agree it’s an unnecessary step.

If you’re adding a vapor barrier, you will need to staple that in place.

On it own, aluminum siding has a relatively low insulation value (also called R-value); aluminum siding has an R-value of 0.61. However, you can purchase insulated aluminum siding to increase the R-value to between 2 and 5. You can also install additional insulation within your walls to help maintain temperatures within your home. On average, insulation costs $1,825 to install throughout the typical home.

You should not use spray foam insulation in several specific areas. Avoid applying it in spaces exposed to high temperatures, such as near electrical boxes or recessed lighting, unless the foam is specifically rated for such use. Applying foam near electrical boxes can damage the wiring, and using it too close to lightboxes or recessed lights creates a potential fire hazard. Additionally, do not use spray foam in areas prone to shifting or movement, as this can lead to cracks and gaps in the insulation. Finally, open-cell foam is unsuitable for use below ground or in areas exposed to moisture because it can absorb water, which compromises its insulating effectiveness.
