"Ethan is a hard-working young man who takes great pride in his product. I needed to get some insulation put in my wife's she-shed. I spoke to Ethan on a Thursday afternoon and let him know we would be traveling for two weeks starting the following Tuesday. Ethan came to our house on a Sunday afternoon to take care of us. He did great prep work, covering our windows and doors. He sealed all the small cracks around our metal sides, the windows and doors before he sprayed the closed-cell insulation. He completed the entire job in under three hours, to include a thorough clean up. We were having problems with insects getting into the shed, especially hornets before we hired Ethan. We returned from our trip last evening and when we checked our shed, there was not a single insect to be found. I highly recommend Ethan for any insulation needs!"

"Two men showed up and they got to work after setting things in place. Will was very plesant and explained what they did. My home is 104 years old and I found out his home was older than mine so I felt he knew the importance of the insulation for my home. I had very minimal in place and he assured me it would be much better now. I appreciated the time spent and the work preformed. I would recommend this company to anyone needing insulation for their home."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Structural insulated panels and rigid foam boards have the highest R-value of any insulation that contractors commonly use, with R-values reaching up to around 8.0. These types of insulation are best in extremely cold climates, but they’re generally preferred for new construction, as they can be challenging to retrofit. Blown-in and loose fill insulation provide the next best insulative value, provided the installation is done properly. It’s important to choose an insulation type that meets your needs based on climate, as maximizing R-value may not always be financially worthwhile if you live in a moderate climate.

Hanging a thick blanket over your windows will help to keep the heat inside, but only a little. Covering the glass will also prevent the sunlight from getting in, which might actually decrease the efficiency of your window overall. If you get to the point where you’re hanging blankets over your window to keep warm, call in an expert to seal around your windows to prevent warm air from escaping. They may also recommend replacing old windows that aren’t as insulative as newer window technology. Sealing a window isn’t terribly expensive and can make a big difference.

Insulating windows without plastic is usually the better method. Outside of simply replacing your windows, you could buy cellular shades, which trap air between the window and the home, add a window film that blocks UV rays and traps heat, or cover your windows with a low-emissivity coating called “low-E.”

These two types of foams are similar chemically, but they are applied in a much different way and each has its own pros and cons. Spray foam can only be used if the area where you will be installing the installation is wide open and easy to access. Injection foam should be used where it's cost-prohibitive to remove the walls that are placed over the insulation. Spray foam is a much less expensive process and requires less expertise. 

Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but the actual temperature that can cause frozen pipes can vary. Generally, it takes 12 hours for pipes to freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Uninsulated pipes can freeze if it’s 20 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for over three hours. If your pipes are insulated, it can take six hours or longer for pipes to freeze. Note that some pipe types freeze more often than PEX pipes. Copper pipes freeze more often because the copper conducts energy and loses heat quickly.
