"We are finishing our basement. We put up framing, insulation and paneling only to discover we had a condensation problem. We contacted a locally well known water damage and restoration company. After waiting two weeks, they called to tell us they were not interested in working with us. During these few weeks, we tore down the paneling and insulation.  We contacted Superior Insulation after noticing their great reviews here on Angie's List. We talked to Rick who gave us an idea of what the solution was and set up an appointment to view the problem area. Once he saw the problem area, he decided on a slightly different solution. Contract signed 3/18/15. Work completed  by Rick and Jim 3/30/15. They were very professional, thorough and nice to deal with. We are very happy with what they did.

"Courteous, diligent, professional and fair priced. Without reservation I would highly recommend Q-insulation. They installed rock wool insulation in all the ceilings and on the vertical attic walls in our historic brick victorian. They were prompt, on time and treated my home like it was their own. Thank you Valeria and the crew."

Same quality and company, NEW NAME!!!! Yep we've upgraded our branding to better reflect out company goals. As always, quality products are essential for success, but without certified and trained technicians installing everything to the exact specifications for greatest success, your home wouldn't get the best results. That's why we do things right - every time. Our excellent products come with extended/lifetime warranties INCLUDED - there will never be an upcharge for a warranty. The adage "you get what you pay for" is 100% true for Insulation Geniuses. We'd rather explain the investment up front rather than trying to explain quality for the next 20 years...

Another Happy Homeowner!

Small jobs welcome

"I recently needed attic insulation installed; I reached out to several companies for quotes. Dallas came out right away and gave me a complete honest rundown on my issues. I had just purchased this home only to understand my situation was dire, he gave me a great price and even offered to change his schedule to get this project done quickly. He showed up within just a few days and did an incredible job, his team is very professional and even installed a new bath fan i needed. Thank You Windsor Insulation company, my house is noticeably warmer and I couldn't be happier. Great Job and I recommend Windsor Insulation 100%"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Spreading tin foil over your windows works similarly to radiant barrier insulation, but not as well. It will reflect some of the sunlight that would otherwise come through the glass and warm up the inside of your home, so it might help a little to keep your home cool in the summer. However, the appearance isn’t preferable to blinds or drapes that can offer the same benefits. You might also consider tinting your windows instead, which is a more aesthetically pleasing change that can still block a good portion of the solar heat coming through your windows.

The best type of attic insulation depends on where you live, your budget, and what stage of construction the attic is in. For example, if you're building a house, then structural insulated panels are a worthy investment since they're easy to install during construction and they're the most energy-efficient type of insulation.  

Additionally, if you live in a very warm climate, then you can potentially save quite a bit of money by opting for reflective insulation, which is more affordable than comprehensive insulation but doesn't work well for cool climates. Blown-in, loose-fill, and spray foam insulation are all great options for attics in moderate climates.

For standard 2x4 walls, the ideal insulation has an R-value between R-13 and R-15. This level of insulation, typically around 3.5 inches thick, fits well within the wall cavity. Common options include fiberglass batts and spray foam. The best choice for your home can depend on your climate; use R-value maps, like those from Energy Star, to determine the recommended level for your region. For colder climates, you might also consider adding exterior insulation for greater efficiency. Always check with your local building codes to ensure you meet any required standards.

A plastic vapor barrier should completely cover your basement to prevent water from penetrating through the walls. This typically goes before installing insulation to prevent moisture from building up and becoming trapped on the inside of your insulation, where it can collect and lead to mold damage. Installing insulation after the vapor barrier allows for any moisture to exit the walls for better ventilation.

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.
