we like to do estimates on Saturday but we will do are best to accommodate everyone's schedule

"We hired Angelo's spray foam and Russ a terrible job installing the spray foam you missed spots throughout the ceiling everywhere. We sent him pictures showing him spots he missed and spots that weren't as thick as what we paid for. He agreed that the quality of work was terrible and said he would come and fix it. After 12 weeks of not showing up and making up excuses of why he can't get here, he eventually told us he's not going to fix it. My wife and I filed a lawsuit against him. Too tired to redeem our money to pay another company to come and fix his work. Would not recommend this company"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes! Outdoor faucet covers work by enclosing the faucet with a thick, insulating material that will keep the faucet warmer than outdoor temperatures. They need to be sealed tightly against the house to work properly, though, so be sure to tighten the rubber strap or drawstring on the insulation cover to best protect your faucets.

It’s technically possible to install loose-fill cellulose insulation without a blower, but it’s much more time-consuming, tedious, and dangerous. You’ll need to wear the proper protective coverings to handle the cellulose after it’s been doused in boric acid; use a shovel when you can to transport the material from the bag into the wall cavity.

That said, if you purchase cellulose materials at a home improvement store, ask if they rent out blowers for free or at a discounted rate. In many cases, if you buy the material from the store, they’ll rent out the blower at no extra cost.

DIY installation is feasible with the right protective gear and knowledge, but professional installation ensures full coverage and maximum efficiency.

A vapor barrier keeps moisture out of the crawl space, while insulation reduces the amount of unconditioned air—and sometimes moisture—that enters the space. Coupling a vapor barrier with insulation can help prevent humidity and related moisture damage in a crawl space while also making your home more energy-efficient. Just be sure to use insulation that won’t get damaged from moisture, like rigid foam board or expanding spray foam insulation.

The R-value is a rating that measures the insulation’s thermal resistance (in other words, how well it insulates). For most pipe insulation, the R-value will fall between one and five. The higher the R-value, the more protection for your pipes. All pipe insulation materials should have an R-value listed in the product description or on the product label.
