"Triangle Radiant Barrier did a great job installing radiant barrier in our unfinished storage and attic. I was pleased with the whole process from the beginning where all the options for treatment were clearly explained, to the professionalism of crew who did the install, and to the final inspection. The insulated zipper door for the attic stairs is great so I don't have insulation falling down every time I touch the pull-down ladder."

"Justin showed up to provide a quote. He was courteous and friendly. He was knowledgable and answered all my questions. He explained the cost differences and listened to my needs, he never tried to upsell or convince me to go more expensive. I was able to schedule the work during the quote visit and it was within the same week! His father showed up on time and got to work with his team. They were even more courteous and friendly and respectful of my property and the fact I was working remote. They were so quick! My entire basement (over 1000 sqft) had the old insulation removed and new installed within 6 hours. They cleaned after completion and even removed my old ping pong table that needed a new home! I would recommend them. Family owned but COMPLETELY professional."

"“Jimmie was excellent. He took the time to review our concern of water leaking from 2nd floor bathroom onto our 1st floor. We were extremely concerned about what damage it can cause and Jimmie educated us on what was going on and the options to address the problems. He answered all of my questions. He fixed all issues we had and worked quickly to prevent damage to our home structure. It was a pleasure working with him.”"

"Ralph Bertrand from Home Genius Exteriors came out to thoroughly examine our roof. Ralph showed us many photos & a video of our roof, outside & inside. Ralph took the time to answer any questions we had. He explained the various products used & levels of warranty available. We really appreciated the time Ralph spent explaining everything to us, all without pressure to buy. The day of install arrived & the team was on time & ready to work! One thing we liked was that there was someone there from Home Genius Exteriors during the whole time of install. Richard Bowan, the Install Manager, was there to oversee everything & he did an amazing job. They placed large tarps over all our landscaping & got right to work. Rich kept us updated on progress throughout the day & answered any questions we had. In addition to the new roof, we also had new gutters with leaf guards & downspouts installed. When the work was completed, we walked around the house with Rich. Everything was completely cleaned up; there was nothing left behind or out of place. Our home looks amazing. The new roof, gutters & downspouts really look beautiful. We loved our experience with Home Genius Exteriors, especially working with both Ralph & Rich. They were so professional & knowledgeable. We would recommend them to others & if we needed additional work, we would definitely call Home Genius Exteriors."

"These guys did good job with my crawl space. They had to remove a lot of very moldy insulation in space that was crawl only height. They showed up when they said, confirmed and best of all the price was reasonable. Prices were all over for this job and while theirs was most affordable, the work was well done. Professional and trustworthy. They were also competent, efficient and came with the needed respirator, and Tyvek suit to handle this toxic job. Thanks JImmie!"

"Arthur was very friendly and helpful. He offered a couple solutions to get rid of the mold smell in our walk-in closet: the previous owners kept the old papers there. The second solution was botanical and less harmful for the house. I really recommend this business to remediate mold in the house."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

The most affordable way to insulate behind unfinished walls is to install fiberglass batts or rolls. These total around $0.75 per linear foot, with the width matching the gaps between standard studs perfectly. However, it’s important to consider the R-value of your insulation and the climate in your area, as fiberglass insulation isn’t the best in terms of preventing heat transfer. Plus, the most affordable option may cost more on electricity bills over time. The most affordable way to insulate behind finished walls is to leave them up and use blown-in insulation to avoid drywall replacement.

You don’t need to staple insulation, as your drywall and studs will hold it into place. But if you already have a staple gun and staples lying around, it can help keep the product in place and avoid any shifting. But, most experts agree it’s an unnecessary step.

If you’re adding a vapor barrier, you will need to staple that in place.

Yes, cladding can help insulate your home by adding an additional layer to the exterior walls, which can minimize heat loss and enhance energy efficiency. However, it's essential to select cladding materials that include insulation for optimal results, as cladding without built-in insulation won't make nearly as much of a difference.

R-30 insulation is better for higher thermal resistance, but whether it’s "better" depends on the application. R-30 is much thicker and suited for areas like attics or floors in cold climates, where more insulation is required. R-13, on the other hand, is thinner and works well for 2x4 walls or milder climates where less insulation is sufficient. Choosing between R-13 and R-30 depends on the area being insulated and the climate. For example, R-30 provides more insulation but may not fit everywhere in your home.

The cost of installing spray foam insulation is $2,760 on average, but this cost can be as low as $650 or as high as $7,700. The main cost factor is the size of the insulated area and the type of spray foam insulation. 

Polyurethane spray foam costs between $0.44 and $1.50 per board foot, where a board foot is equal to the volume of a one-foot length of a board. More expensive options, like soybean or vegetable oil spray foam, range from $1.50 to $3.00 per board foot.
