"Matthew did a thorough quote at my house shortly before Thanksgiving. Matthew was very professional, on-time and friendly. The technology was impressive as you could see the ?cold spots? around my attic space. I plan to execute the job after the holidays.
I highly recommend Matthew and Insulation Commandos if you need any insulation related work."

"Since 7/2025 I knew we needed insulation blown into our less than 1300 SF 1973 built home. Got a quote for over $5000, left messages at many more and some didn’t even show up or return my call. On 12/16/2025 I called Angi list and was told someone would be calling me back soon(bet they want!) Well they did and I spoke Nick Martin of Martin Home Solutions and gave me a quote that I was able to pay (We are old!) and he and Jason Farmer came to our home last evening 12/17/2025!!! (Ready To Work!) We were so impressed by Nick’s honesty, open communication and work ethic. We were so very happy to know that we can survive this winter financially with adequate insulation in our attic.

"MARC JONES CONSTRUCTION TEAM ARRIVED ON SCHEDULE AND INSTALLED THE SOLAR ARRAY OVER TWO DAYS. ON MONDAY, WE HAD INSPECTION AND A FEW DAYS LATER THE ATTIC WAS INSULATED WITH FOAM TO REDUCE HEAT LOAD ON AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTHLY EXCEPT FOR INADVERTANTLY UNPLUGGING THE SYSTEM CIRCUITBREAKER DURING THE FOAMING OPERATIO. "
"Service tech went into attic. Took pictures of depth and coverage of insulation throughout the attic. Explained codes. Everything was as it should be. He didn't try to sell me any unnecessary services or products. Service tech was efficient, polite and knowledgeable."
"Roberto was the technician and he was very professional, polite, and personable. He inspected the rest of our system and told us things that needed to be changed or repaired. He showed me pictures of everything. Everything he told me about was accurate. He quoted me a price for R38 insulation , Some of our ducts were plastic and he recommended them to be changed. I agreed completely and didn't know they were plastic. I would have had them done the work but I had no price comparisons to make and besides I didn't have the money right then. So he just finished the vent cleaning and left his card. He did a great job on the vent cleaning and was happy with the work."
Our product, the Green Energy Barrier, is the most cost effective reflective attic insulation system available. Whether you install the product or not, you are already paying for it. This is because, during the summer months, heat gain contributes to thousands of dollars in wasted money for many Americans. The same can be said for heat loss during the winter months. Green Energy Barrier offers the premier solution to this problem. \n\n Unlike typical home installation products that merely help to resist heat, Green Barrier Energy��s reflective attic insulation system reflects heat by acting as a radiant technology. This technology is so powerful and effective, it is the same radiant heat barrier used in NASA��s space suits. \n\n Green Energy Barrier Will Keep You Warmer in the Winter, Cooler in the Summer! \n\nStart putting dollars back in your pocket TODAY! \n\n \n\n
A dehumidifier can reduce condensation on your ductwork by lowering humidity levels in the air. Condensation occurs when humid, warm air makes contact with cold ducts. A dehumidifier can help maintain your home's indoor humidity below or around 50%, minimizing moisture buildup. However, if condensation is caused by leaks, cracks, or other damage, a dehumidifier won’t solve the problem.
Mineral wool has an excellent life expectancy of up to 50 years, provided it's kept dry and free of pests. Compared to fiberglass, with a life span of 20 to 30 years, mineral wool stacks up well for long-term cost savings. Sheep wool maintains a similar life span to fiberglass, while estimates for hemp wool insulation life expectancies are all over the board, ranging anywhere from 20 to 100 years.
Durable materials suited for climate include aluminum for coastal areas or composite wood in varying environments for durability and minimal upkeep.
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.
Radiant barriers and insulation serve different purposes, so one is not inherently better than the other. Radiant barriers reflect radiant heat, helping keep spaces cool, especially in hot climates, while insulation slows heat transfer through conduction. For optimal energy efficiency, it’s best to use both together.
Radiant barriers can enhance the performance of insulation by preventing heat gain in the summer and heat loss in the winter. The choice between them depends on specific climate conditions and the building’s design requirements.
