How much does insulation cost?
Insulation project costs can vary significantly. Closed-cell foam insulation, while the most expensive option, is also the most effective and typically provides a good return on investment over time. Blown-in insulation, though less costly, doesn't offer the same level of effectiveness or efficiency as closed-cell or open-cell spray foam options.Should I spray foam my home?
Spray foam insulation is an excellent choice for new construction or renovation projects where walls are exposed to the studs. For older homes requiring retrofitting, we can install blown-in insulation through small wall openings. This method is particularly suitable for older properties lacking insulation or for use beneath attic floors.What's better: spray foam or fiberglass/blown-in insulation?
Closed-cell spray foam insulation offers superior insulating performance, making it an excellent choice. However, it may not be the ideal solution for every situation. Our team of experts can help you determine the most suitable insulation for your home, considering factors such as the age of your property and your budget constraints.I need help just deciding where to begin.

Should I do spray foam, blown-in insulation, or fiberglass batting?
The optimal choice depends on your specific space and budget considerations. Closed-cell spray foam provides the highest efficiency but comes with a higher initial cost. Fiberglass batting is more budget-friendly but doesn't perform as well as closed-cell or open-cell spray foam. Making the best decision requires expertise and knowledge of your particular building. Our team can guide you through these options, providing a detailed quote and expert advice to assist you in the decision-making process.Will fiberglass gas off?
Fiberglass insulation doesn't emit any gases, making it a more inert option. In contrast, spray foam does release some gases immediately after installation. However, this off-gassing process typically concludes within 24 hours, after which your home is safe for occupancy.Is fiberglass better than cellulose?
Fiberglass insulation is an excellent choice for several reasons. It has superior moisture resistance, provides better insulating properties, and can be installed more quickly compared to traditional cellulose methods.
