"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!"

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."

While carpet over carpet may provide some additional insulation and soundproofing benefits, it's not as effective as other methods. Layering carpets can add a modest buffer against noise and temperature fluctuations, but it's limited compared to installing thicker carpet padding or using specialized soundproofing materials. For optimal floor insulation and soundproofing, consider alternative solutions tailored to your specific needs and budget, such as adding additional padding or soundproofing underlayments beneath the carpet.
Yes, you need a 1.5-inch to 2-inch air gap in a cathedral ceiling to allow proper air flow and prevent cathedral ceiling venting problems. This amount of airspace allows warm, moist air to properly leave your ceiling to avoid moisture build-up and other issues that put your home at risk. You can also add an air vent for extra air flow.
How to dispose of insulation depends on a few factors, including the condition of the material. While you can simply bag up and throw away many kinds of insulation, some municipalities offer recycling, so it's worth checking with yours. If there are contaminants such as asbestos in your insulation, abatement and specialized disposal are often necessary.
Polyisocyanurate foam, or polyiso for short, has the highest R-value per square inch: 6.5 to 6.8. Polyiso is a rigid foam that comes with a reflective foil on both sides to serve as a radiant barrier. Given its high R-value, rigid foam is usually meant for foundations and basement walls.
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.
