This company was started in 2016 when I bought a rig to spray foam my own house with the plan to sell it after my house was done, but there was a need in the area for that service so it grew into a full time job. As we grew we worked at created relationships with the community & contractors. In 2018 we added fiberglass to our offerings and became a full service insulation company. By fall of 2018 we added 2 more employees, which allowed us to keep both spray foam and fiberglass! With our business continuing to grow & the shift in the marketplace towards spray foam, we have added a second rig to our operations! We are proud of our team of 5 & value our customers by making sure we meet their spray foam or fiberglass insulation needs

Insulation questions, answered by experts

If you’re using faced insulation with paper, face the paper toward the inside of the room during the installation process. 

A good way to remember this is that the paper should face the “warm side” as it’s the vapor barrier, meaning it should face toward where the heat will be coming from.

Traditional clapboard siding, particularly with panels made from wood, is not a significant insulator on its own. However, you can keep your home cooler in summer and warmer with "insulated clapboard siding," which is a type of vinyl clapboard siding with a built-in foam insulation. Consult a local siding contractor to determine whether insulated siding is right for your home.

Yes, doggie doors, like all entrances, can let both hot and cold air into your home. However, as with any door in your house, you can take steps to weather-strip your pet's entrance to prevent air leaks.

In some areas, insulation companies require a special license, while some states only require them to hold general contractor licenses. Some municipalities may not mandate any license, although you should always ensure a contractor is fully insured. You can use Angi’s license lookup tool to confirm whether or not an insulation contractor you’re considering holds the necessary license for your area. You can also contact the company for information regarding licenses, certifications, and insurance.

Yes, cold walls could indicate that your home has poor insulation, especially if the walls are significantly colder than the air or other areas in the home. In most cases, cold walls are a sign that the heat produced by your furnace isn’t hanging around long enough to make the walls warm. If that’s the case, hire a local HVAC technician to take a closer look at your heating system.
