"Dillon and the NxT Level Insulation team provided excellent service for me and my home. Throughout the entire process they’ve showed incredible communication. Their quality of service was top-notch all while offering the best price in my area by a mile! I highly recommend Dillon and his team to anyone who needs insulation work done."
"This September I had a home energy audit through Fulkrum Insulation. They said we needed some Ductwork changes and more insulation in the attic. Since having those solutions installed, my electric bill has been dramatically lower than ever before."
"They had fair pricing. They were on time, efficient, communicated well, and cleaned up well before leaving. Very nice people to hire for insulation installation."
"Cleaned out the old ..sanitized the attic and added much needed insulation. Along the way pointed out several spots on the roof that need addressing outside the attic. Were friendly... efficient and respected my dwelling and my belongings...they absolutely are SKILLED craftsmen that know what they are doing and my puppies loved their visitors"
"After to job was completed the attic looked amazing. The insulation was perfectly level. I was impressed they did an excellent job cleaning up afterwards."
"I found this company by accident and turns out one of the best I used the young man was very professional and knowledgeable he was fast had all the insulation up in only a hour or so and his prices were the best I’ve seen .. and I can thank him enough"
"I can't thank these guys enough! They gave us a great deal and went above and beyond what we had hired them to do. They are going to come back out and take care of a few other things that they can do besides insulation. I can't recommend them enough. They are very punctual, professional, and very friendly. Even our dogs approve of them! Even before they were finished, I already noticed a VERY big difference in the temperature in the house. Instead of the AC running all day and it being 6-10 warmer than I prefer, it stays at the temperature I want it. The AC runs 1/4 of the time instead of running all day."
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.
The lifespan of crawl space insulation depends on how well you maintain your insulation and the type of insulation. Fiberglass will need replacing every 15 to 20 years on average if you don't have a vapor barrier in place. If you do have vapor barriers in place, then your insulation could last much longer. Spray foam insulation can last anywhere from 80 to 100 years.
Minimal, mainly occasional checks for damage or mold in extreme conditions.
Your house may be cold even if the heat is on because of bad insulation, gaps in doors, small holes pulling hot air from the home, or excess humidity. The heater itself might be malfunctioning. For this problem, you’d need to talk to an HVAC pro. If you have a gas heating system (most do) this should be considered an urgent job as natural gas could be leaking in your home.
These two types of foams are similar chemically, but they are applied in a much different way and each has its own pros and cons. Spray foam can only be used if the area where you will be installing the installation is wide open and easy to access. Injection foam should be used where it's cost-prohibitive to remove the walls that are placed over the insulation. Spray foam is a much less expensive process and requires less expertise.
