Quality install. It’s a really old house and you never know what will show up when you start tearing things off. Crew did a great job of adjusting the plan to fit the reality of what they found. Looks great.

Good. A couple of issues popped on the installation but were resolved by Paschal quickly. Taylor Patterson was my rep and she was great to work with, responding to the issues and answering any questions.

Doorbell Installation questions, answered by experts

Mineral wool wraps are the most affordable and effective insulation for crawl space ducts. They are easy to cut, last for a long time, and healthier for humans. Meanwhile, fiberglass wraps are cheaper but more hazardous and difficult to handle. If you do choose to use a fiberglass wrap, make sure you are wearing long sleeves and wear proper protective gear.

Upgrading insulation offers several benefits, including improved energy efficiency, which leads to lower heating and cooling costs. It also enhances indoor comfort by regulating temperature and can provide noise reduction. Additionally, better insulation has a reduced environmental impact and can increase your home's value and overall livability.

We do not recommend fiberglass insulation for soundproofing purposes, especially if you are working on a room that’s part of your living space. Fiberglass insulation is dangerous, and the installation process is hazardous. It is also harmful to the environment. When there are so many newer, healthier non-fiberglass alternatives in the market, the lower cost of fiberglass insulation simply doesn’t justify the harm and danger it poses.

Spreading tin foil over your windows works similarly to radiant barrier insulation, but not as well. It will reflect some of the sunlight that would otherwise come through the glass and warm up the inside of your home, so it might help a little to keep your home cool in the summer. However, the appearance isn’t preferable to blinds or drapes that can offer the same benefits. You might also consider tinting your windows instead, which is a more aesthetically pleasing change that can still block a good portion of the solar heat coming through your windows.

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.
