True Building Performance is the Capital District’s top rated insulation contractor. It’s no secret that the combination of our older houses along with cold winters and humid summers, can be a recipe for high bills and uncomfortable homes. Our staff has years of experience identifying solutions and best practices for improving efficiency, safety, and comfort. Let us provide an honest evaluation and help in creating a customized plan for your home.

"The job went great. It took two days; the first to remove and dispose of old fiberglass batts and debris and the second to do the attic work. This included: air sealing the attic, fire protection for all recessed lighting in ceiling, fire rated barrier around chimney, constructing and insulating a new hatch for access to attic, creating proper ventilation from soffits (which had been an ongoing problem) and blowing in approximately 18 inches of new cellulose insulation. The workers (four men) arrived on time, worked extremely well as a team and where very meticulous in their clean-up. I was very impressed by their professionalism and experience in completing the job."

We are a woman owned & operated, full service insulation company. We specialize in fiberglass batt insulation, blown-cellulose & fiberglass insulation, and spray foam. We staff a crew of expert installers, and pride ourselves on exceptional customer service.

"From the very first interaction on the phone, owner Jessica Ryan was very friendly and knowledgable. Upon inspection of the attic she was very thorough and honest in her analysis. She wound up saving me many thousands of dollars with her suggestions compared to what the other companies quoted me as they tried to up-sell unnecessary services. On the day of the insulation being installed her crew was promptly on time, extremely good natured and well informed. The whole experience was perfect. I would absolutely hire them again and would strongly recommend that you do too!"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

While the answer may depend on who you ask, most contractors would agree that spray foam insulation is a strong candidate for this job as it is effective at repelling moisture and is resistant to biological growth.

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.

Bubble wrap is better for moving since it can be cut to size, whereas dish foam comes in precut sheets that are harder to manipulate. However, if you’re packing items like dishes, wine glasses, picture frames, or mirrors, dish foam will protect them better. Ensure you measure your box beforehand so you know what size dish foam to purchase. 

It is possible to insulate your walls without removing drywall, but it’s not a good idea to attempt the work yourself. A professional can use blown-in insulation or spray foam insulation to fill wall voids without opening up the walls, and the option they use typically depends on your climate and whether or not there’s insulation in your wall already that can remain in place. Spray foam insulation costs more and isn’t always a viable option, but it’s a better insulator. Call in an expert to help decide which is right for you.

The best type of insulation for your home will largely depend on your climate and the space in your home you are trying to insulate. Fiberglass, for instance, is excellent for cold climates as it has a high R-value and won’t settle much over time; spray foam works well for humid environments as it has excellent moisture-resistant properties.
