Roof Insulation Installers
If you have higher than normal energy bills, drafty rooms or a hard time keeping your home comfortable year-round, it may be time to invest in insulation. Insulation helps resist the flow of hot air to your ceiling and prevents it from escaping through the roof during cold weather. Many homeowners have reported seeing 40% energy savings or more with the help of a professional installer.
A qualified roofing contractor can recommend the best type of insulation for your home. Whether it's blown-in fiberglass, cellulose or spray foam, contractors can educate you on the pros and cons of each product. They can also answer your questions about what insulation you need, where it should go and how much of it is needed.
Insulation contractors can install insulation in attics, walls and crawl spaces. They can replace existing insulation in addition to installing new batting or loose-fill cellulose. If the old insulation is wet, moldy or contains animal waste, it's often better to remove it and start over. They can also cover or seal recessed lighting (can lights) that stick out of the attic floor and insulate around vent pipes. These professionals are also able to install rigid foam board, batts or rolls in air ducts and other tight areas. They follow the manufacturer's instructions and take care to not block attic fixtures or vents in the process. In many cases, they will use a vacuum to remove dust and debris from the area before applying the new insulation.
