"We called Mister Insulation and Jeff came out in a day or so. We explained that we purchased new windows and doors and had insulation blowen into the walls but the house was still not warm.
He took pictures in the attic and used a thermal camera to show where we were losing heat also we had mold. He removed the mold and replaced the insulation . He and his crew were very professional. We would recommend them ."
"These guys were professional, on time and communicated very well... I would recommend this company to you for all your Spray Foam Insulation needs..."
"I love American Shield. I love American Shield. I love them. We have 2 homes; this home is 30 years old, our home in California is twenty years old and we have used them in both places. A, number 1, plus, plus!"
"They also did insulation in our attic , the roof was done in 1 day which is standard and the workers were very efficient and cleaned up very well after themselves. Everything from beginning to end was top notch , the company went above and beyond from the thank you card we received shortly after signing up with them , to a detailed letter of what to expect . Our roof was installed within 2 weeks, and the insulation was done a week later. We were kept up to date with the progress of each part of our projects. We would highly recommend them and will be using them again for more work we need done. Thank again"
"They custom make the windows and Fed-Ex them to you. We installed them ourselves to save money. Once we put them in, we couldn't hear outside noise anymore. It made a world of difference. I think it has also helped insulate my home a little. For the cost, I think it would have been twice as much to have the windows replaced."
"EXCELLENT PROFESSIONAL SERVICE! Called them cold on a Sunday night from my DC home to repair many shingle caps that had blown off the peak of our roof of our townhome in OC- I could see daylight from the attic and the insulation was wet. They were on my roof Monday morning, in the rain, fixing it completely. They took before and after photos on the roof so I could see exactly what they had done. They also replaced a cracked vent pipe boot. Very easy to deal with, good communications, knowledgeable and professional. "

"Contractor submitted Home Project Proposal. After a slight modification, I agreed to the terms. Mr. Barnes appeared on site on the date agreed upon. He personally measured, cut and installed the drywall, baseboard and garage insulation strip. He painted everything, blending the paint well with the existing drywall. Everything went smoothly overall."
The most insulative type of insulation for behind drywall is spray foam insulation, but this is the most expensive insulation available. The most common insulation—sometimes considered the best for the value you get for the money—is fiberglass roll or fiberglass batt insulation, which is significantly more affordable but also far less insulative. The best kind of insulation for your house will also vary based on the climate in your area, your budget, and more. A professional insulation company can help you decide which type is best for your home.
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.
Yes, insulating your cold water pipes is a great way to prevent condensation. When warm, humid air meets cold pipes, condensation forms, which can drip and cause moisture issues in your home. Pipe insulation acts as a barrier between the warm air and the cold pipes, keeping condensation at bay and helping you avoid potential problems like mold or structural damage.
If you’re a savvy DIYer around the house, own the basic tools, and have enough time on your hands, you can definitely install fiberglass insulation yourself. Doing the work yourself will certainly keep overall insulation costs down. However, if you’re not confident in your handy skills around the house, call in a professional.
Fiberglass is considered dangerous only if your skin comes into contact with it or if you breathe in any fiberglass particles. This is because fiberglass is literally made of tiny fibers of glass that can cut your skin and your organs. While there aren’t many long-term effects, it’s still important to take all the proper safety precautions when working with fiberglass.
