Cellulose vs Fiberglass
The choice between cellulose and fiberglass loose fill insulation depends on whether you prioritize maximum thermal efficiency and air sealing (cellulose) or moisture resistance and long-term stability (fiberglass).
Loose Fill Fiberglass Insulation
Loose Fill Cellulose Insulation
Core Performance Comparison
| Feature | Cellulose (Blown-In) | Fiberglass (Blown-In) |
|---|---|---|
| Air Sealing | Superior; fills small gaps | Poor; allows air movement |
| Settling Rate | High (~20% over time) | Minimal (typically <2%) |
| Soundproofing | Excellent (denser matrix) | Moderate |
| Fire Safety | Class A (treated with borates) | Class A (naturally non-combustible) |
Key Strengths
Cellulose
- Air Sealing: It is approximately 35–40% more effective at reducing air infiltration than fiberglass.
- Sustainability: Made from up to 85% recycled paper (primarily newspaper and cardboard).
- Extreme Temperatures: Unlike fiberglass, which can lose significant R-value in extreme cold, cellulose maintains or even slightly improves its thermal resistance as temperatures drop.
- Pest Resistance: Treated with borates, which naturally repel insects and rodents.
Fiberglass
- Stability: It maintains its original thickness for decades, whereas cellulose can lose 15–25% of its R-value over its lifespan due to settling.
- Moisture Resistance: Fiberglass is
non-absorbent and does not rot or support mold growth on its own, making it better for high-humidity areas.

Attic
Loose Fill Blow In
Our loose-fill attic insulation service provides a high-performance thermal barrier designed to adapt to the unique layout of your home. Using specialized blowing equipment, we install premium fiberglass or cellulose fibers that settle into every nook, cranny, and hard-to-reach corner that traditional batt insulation often misses.
Core Benefits
Maximum Thermal Performance
Creates a seamless, gap-free layer that can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 10-20%.
Versatile Coverage
Ideal for irregularly shaped attics, tight corners, and obstructions like piping, ductwork, or cross beams.
Enhanced Soundproofing
The dense material acts as a natural acoustic barrier, reducing noise transmission from the outside and between rooms.
Health and Safety
Our modern materials are treated with fire retardants and are resistant to mold, mildew, and pests.
Sustainable Options
We offer eco-friendly cellulose options made from up to 85% recycled materials.
What the Service Includes
- Site Preparation & Protection: We set up protective barriers to ensure your living space remains clean during the process.
- Air Sealing & Ventilation Check: Before blowing in material, we identify and seal major air leaks and install vent baffles (chutes) to ensure proper attic airflow.
- Hazard Shielding: We install safety shields (Top Hats) around heat-producing fixtures like recessed lights to prevent fire hazards.
- Professional Installation: Using a hopper and blower system, our technicians apply the insulation to your target R-value (typically R-30 to R-60 depending on your climate).
- Post-Job Cleanup: We remove all equipment and debris, leaving your attic professionally sealed and your home comfortable.
Why Choose Loose-Fill in 2026?
As of 2026, homeowners are increasingly prioritizing low operating costs and "green" building features. Professional loose-fill installation is one of the fastest home improvements to provide a return on investment through immediate energy savings and increased property resale value.
Radiant Barrier
An attic radiant barrier is a high-efficiency reflective system designed to block solar heat from entering your home. Unlike traditional insulation that absorbs and slows heat (conduction), a radiant barrier reflects up to 97% of radiant heat back toward its source.
Service Description: High-Reflectivity Attic Radiant Barrier
Our radiant barrier service transforms your attic from a heat trap into a thermal shield. Using industrial-grade aluminum foil or low-emissivity (low-e) coatings, we line the underside of your roof to drastically reduce the "oven effect" that causes upper floors to overheat. This passive technology is most effective in sunny climates and for homes with HVAC ductwork located in the attic.
Core Benefits
- Reduced Attic Temperatures: Lowers attic air temperatures by 20°F to 30°F during peak summer months.
- Energy Savings: Can reduce summer cooling costs by 5% to 15% by decreasing the workload on your air conditioner.
- Enhanced HVAC Performance: By keeping attic ducts cooler, your AC doesn't have to work as hard to deliver cold air, extending the lifespan of your equipment.
- Stabilized Indoor Comfort: Eliminates "hot spots" in rooms directly beneath the roof, ensuring more consistent temperatures throughout the home.
- Maintenance-Free Longevity: Once installed, radiant barriers require no active power or upkeep and do not degrade over time.
What the Service Includes
- Comprehensive Attic Inspection: We evaluate your current insulation, ventilation, and roof structure to determine the most effective installation method.
- Professional Installation:
- Foil Application: Highly reflective sheets are stapled to the underside of roof rafters, leaving a critical air gap required for the barrier to function.
- Gable Wall Coverage: We extend the barrier to gable walls for a complete thermal envelope.
- Ventilation Preservation: Our technicians ensure that ridge vents and soffit vents remain unobstructed to allow for proper attic "breathing" and moisture control.
- Specialized Material Selection: We use perforated foil to allow moisture vapor to escape, preventing condensation and mold growth in humid climates.
- Safety & Cleanup: We ensure all materials are securely fastened and the workspace is left clean.
Why Add a Radiant Barrier in 2026?
While traditional insulation is like a "heavy sweater" for your home, a radiant barrier acts like a "sunshade." In 2026, as summer temperatures reach new extremes, this dual-layered defense is the most effective way to maintain a sustainable, low-cost living environment.
Continuous Insulation
Service Description: High-Performance Continuous Attic Insulation
Our continuous insulation service provides an unbroken thermal shield across your entire attic structure. Unlike standard "cavity insulation," which is interrupted by wooden rafters or joists, continuous insulation (CI) covers these structural elements to eliminate thermal bridging—the process where heat bypasses your insulation by traveling through the solid wood or steel of your home's frame.
Using specialized continuous fiberglass rolls, we create a "big blanket" effect that wraps your attic in a seamless layer of protection.
Core Benefits
- Elimination of Thermal Bridging: Prevents heat from escaping or entering through the rafters and joists, which can account for up to 25% of a typical attic's energy loss.
- Superior R-Value Performance: By maintaining a constant thickness across the entire surface, CI provides a higher "effective R-value" than cavity-only insulation of the same thickness.
- Enhanced Moisture Control: Acts as a secondary vapor and air barrier, significantly reducing the risk of condensation, mold, and structural rot within your roof assembly.
- Increased Structural Protection: By stabilizing the temperature of the roof deck and rafters, CI reduces the seasonal expansion and contraction that can lead to roofing wear and tear.
- Acoustic Comfort: The dense, unbroken layer provides an exceptional sound barrier against outdoor noise from traffic, weather, or construction.
What the Service Includes
- Thermal Bridge Assessment: We identify "hot spots" where your home's framing is currently losing the most energy using thermal imaging.
- Seam Sealing: All joints are sealed with high-performance stretchable tape or spray foam to ensure a 100% airtight thermal break.
Why Choose Continuous Insulation in 2026?
As 2026 building codes and energy standards (such as the updated IECC) become more stringent, continuous insulation is no longer just an "upgrade"—it is a necessity for homeowners looking to achieve near-zero energy loss. It is the most effective way to ensure your attic remains a stable, protected environment, regardless of extreme seasonal temperatures.
Garage
Attic Loose Fill Blow In
In 2026, garage attic loose-fill (blown-in) insulation is a highly efficient way to regulate temperatures in one of the home's most thermally volatile areas. By creating a monolithic, gap-free thermal barrier, this service prevents the "oven effect" in summer and heat loss in winter, making the garage a more usable and energy-efficient space.
Service Description: Professional Garage Attic Loose-Fill Insulation
Our garage attic insulation service uses specialized blowing equipment to install a seamless layer of premium fiberglass or cellulose fibers. Unlike traditional batts, loose-fill insulation settles into every crevice and around ductwork and structural trusses to eliminate thermal gaps.
Core Benefits
- Thermal Envelope Protection: Significantly reduces heat transfer between the garage and the outdoors, which is especially critical if the garage is attached to the house.
- Protects Adjacent Rooms: Stabilizes the temperature of rooms directly above or next to the garage, reducing the workload on your primary HVAC system by up to 20%.
- Enhanced Versatility: Transforms the garage into a comfortable environment for use as a workshop, home gym, or storage area for temperature-sensitive items.
- Noise Dampening: Acts as a sound barrier to reduce outdoor traffic noise and muffle the sound of power tools or garage door operation.
- Pest and Fire Resistance: Modern loose-fill materials are treated with borates and fire retardants to resist pests, mold, and flame spread.
What the Service Includes
- Blower-In Installation: Technicians use a long-range hose to apply the insulation to a target R-value (typically R-30 to R-49 for garage attics, depending on climate).
- Air Sealing (Optional but Recommended): Identifying and sealing major air leaks before blowing in material to maximize energy savings.
- Access Door Insulation: Weather-stripping and insulating the attic hatch or pull-down stairs to complete the thermal seal.
Dense Pack Wall and Ceiling Blow In
Service Description: Dense-Pack Loose-Fill Garage Wall & Ceiling Insulation
Our dense-pack service is specifically designed for garages with existing drywall. Unlike standard blown-in insulation, which is loose and fluffy, dense-packing involves injecting high-density cellulose or fiberglass into enclosed wall and ceiling cavities under high pressure. This creates a solid "battery" of insulation that resists settling, blocks air infiltration and transforms your garage into a fully tempered extension of your home.
Core Benefits
- No Demolition Required: Insulating behind existing drywall through small, 2-inch access holes, saves the cost and mess of a full renovation.
- Maximum R-Value: Dense-packing provides a higher R-value per inch than standard loose-fill, ensuring your garage stays cool in summer and warm in winter.
- Industrial Soundproofing: The extreme density of the material is highly effective at deadening sound, making it the perfect choice for home workshops, music studios, or garages near busy streets.
- Fire & Pest Resistance: Premium materials treated with borates naturally deter pests and provide a Class A fire rating for added safety in a space often used for vehicle and chemical storage.
What the Service Includes
- Cavity Inspection: Using thermal imaging or small pilot holes to locate studs, fire blocks, and electrical wiring to ensure a complete and safe fill.
- Precision Access: Drilling small, professional-grade entry ports into each stud bay (walls) and joist cavity (ceilings).
- High-Pressure Injection: Using specialized "dense-pack" nozzles to inject the material at a density of approximately 3.5 to 4.0 lbs per cubic foot. This ensures the material will not sag over time.
- Verification: Monitoring the pressure and volume of the material to ensure every corner of the cavity is fully compressed and gap-free.
- Clean Finish: Once the fill is complete, plugging the access holes with tapered foam or plastic plugs and provide basic patching so the surface is ready for touch-up paint.
Why Choose Dense-Pack?
Many homeowners are converting garages into additional living spaces, high-end home offices, or workshops. Dense-pack insulation is an efficient way to meet modern energy codes and comfort standards in a finished space. It is an upgrade that provides immediate climate control and long-term energy savings.
Garage Door Insulation Kit
In 2026, a garage door insulation kit is one of the most effective ways to complete your home’s thermal envelope. Since the garage door is typically the largest "hole" in your home's exterior, adding a dedicated insulation layer prevents it from acting as a massive radiator in the summer or a heat sink in the winter.
Service Description: High-Performance Garage Door Insulation Upgrade
Our garage door insulation service utilizes professional-grade kits designed to fit seamlessly into the panels of your existing overhead door. Rather than replacing the entire door, we retrofit it with high-R-value materials—such as expanded polystyrene (EPS) or reflective radiant foils—to provide an immediate barrier against extreme temperatures. This service is ideal for homeowners who use their garage as a workshop, gym, or for vehicle protection.
Core Benefits
- Drastic Temperature Reduction: Can lower garage interior temperatures by as much as 20°F during peak summer months.
- Increased Structural Rigidity: The insulation panels add internal support to the door, reducing vibration and making the door feel more solid and durable.
- Quiet Operation: By absorbing vibrations and dampening the "tinny" sound of metal panels, insulation significantly reduces the noise of the garage door opening and closing.
- Energy Efficiency: Reduces heat transfer into the garage, which in turn lowers the cooling demand for any adjacent living spaces or rooms located directly above.
- Lightweight Design: We use high-density, low-weight materials to ensure the balance of your door remains within manufacturer specifications, preventing unnecessary wear on your garage door opener.
What the Service Includes
- Panel Cleaning & Preparation: We thoroughly clean the interior panels of your garage door to ensure maximum adhesion for the insulation materials.
- Custom Precision Cutting: Each insulation panel is custom-trimmed on-site to provide a "snug-fit" within the recessed channels of your specific door model.
- Secure Installation: Using high-strength adhesive or specialized retainer clips, we secure the panels so they remain firmly in place during the door's constant movement.
- Weather Seal Inspection: As part of the kit installation, we inspect and can replace the bottom rubber seal and side weather-stripping to ensure a completely airtight finish.
- Balance Testing: After installation, we test the door's balance and tension to ensure the added weight (though minimal) hasn't strained the spring system.
Why Choose an Insulation Kit in 2026?
With 2026 energy costs and climate volatility, an uninsulated garage door is a major liability for home comfort. Our professional installation ensures that the kit looks clean and performs at its maximum R-value, providing a cost-effective alternative to purchasing a brand-new insulated door.
Basement
Ceiling Joist Insulation
In 2026, basement ceiling joist insulation (also known as "floor joist insulation") is a critical upgrade for homeowners looking to separate the climate of their living space from the damp, unconditioned air of a basement or crawlspace.
Service Description: Professional Basement Ceiling & Rim Joist Insulation
Our basement ceiling insulation service creates a robust thermal and acoustic break between your basement and the first floor of your home. We specialize in treating the "rim joists" (where the floor meets the foundation) and the expansive ceiling cavities to prevent cold floors, drafts, and rising moisture. Whether you have a finished basement or an unfinished utility space, this service ensures your upper floors remain warm, quiet, and energy efficient.
Core Benefits
- Warm Floors & Improved Comfort: Eliminates the "ice rink" effect on first-floor hardwood or tile by preventing cold basement air from cooling the floorboards.
- High-Performance Air Sealing: By insulating the rim joists—one of the primary sources of air leakage in a home—we stop outdoor drafts and humidity from entering your home's structure.
- Superior Sound Dampening: Acts as a sound-absorbent barrier that reduces the transmission of footsteps, voices, and mechanical noise (like furnaces or washers) between levels.
- Moisture & Mildew Control: We use moisture-resistant materials that prevent condensation from forming on cold pipes or structural wood, protecting your home from rot.
- Energy Savings: Reduces the heating load on your main floor, as your HVAC system no longer must fight the "cold sink" effect of an uninsulated basement.
What the Service Includes
- Preparation & Utility Mapping: We identify and protect electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and gas pipes located within the joist bays.
- Critical Rim Joist Sealing: Using rigid foam board with spray-foam edges, we air-seal the perimeter where the house frame sits on the foundation.
- Cavity Insulation Installation:
- Fiberglass or Mineral Wool Batts: For unfinished ceilings, we install high-density batts secured with wire stays (lighting/ventilation permitting).
- Dense-Pack Injection: For finished basement ceilings, we can inject insulation behind the drywall through small access ports.
- Support & Securement: We ensure all insulation is mechanically fastened so it will not sag over time due to gravity or vibration.
- Fire Safety Compliance: All materials used are Class A fire-rated, ensuring your basement remains compliant with 2026 local building codes.
Why Choose Basement Insulation in 2026?
With the increasing focus on "whole home" energy audits in 2026, the basement ceiling is often identified as the "missing link" in home efficiency. This service provides a high return on investment by protecting your home’s infrastructure while immediately increasing the comfort of your primary living areas.
Basement Walls
In 2026, basement wall insulation is a vital upgrade for turning a damp, cold sub-level into a comfortable, dry, and energy-efficient living space. Because basement walls are in direct contact with the earth, they are prone to "thermal siphoning" and moisture migration, making specialized insulation a necessity.
Service Description: High-Performance Basement Wall Insulation & Moisture Barrier
Our basement wall insulation service provides a continuous thermal blanket that decouples your home's interior from the cold, damp foundation. We utilize advanced materials—such as rigid foam boards or closed-cell spray foam—that are specifically engineered to handle the unique hydrostatic pressure and humidity levels found below grade. This service not only keeps your basement warm but also serves as a critical defense against mold and mildew.
Batt Insulation with Vapor Barrier
Rigid Foam Board
Core Benefits
- Complete Thermal Break: Stops the foundation from acting as a giant "heat sink" that pulls warmth out of your home during winter.
- Advanced Moisture Management: Unlike traditional fiberglass, our 2026-standard materials act as a vapor retarder, preventing ground moisture from seeping through the concrete and into your finished walls.
- Condensation Prevention: By keeping the interior wall surface warm, our insulation prevents humid air from condensing on cold concrete, which is the primary cause of "basement smell" and mold.
- Immediate Energy Savings: Insulating basement walls can reduce a home's total energy costs by up to 20%, as the HVAC system no longer must compensate for a massive uninsulated mass.
- Structural Protection: Protects the foundation from extreme freeze-thaw cycles by stabilizing the temperature of the concrete.
What the Service Includes
- Wall Assessment & Prep: We inspect the foundation for cracks or active leaks. We ensure the surface is clean and dry before application to guarantee a permanent bond.
- In-Wall Air Sealing: We seal the "sill plate" and "rim joist" (where the wall meets the ceiling) to eliminate the most common sources of drafts and pest entry.
Walls
Loose Fill Insulation Blow In
In 2026, wall loose-fill (blown-in) insulation has become the premier retrofit solution for existing homes. This service allows homeowners to upgrade their home's thermal performance and soundproofing without the expense or mess of removing drywall or siding.
Service Description: Whole-Home Wall Loose-Fill Insulation
Our wall loose-fill insulation service utilizes specialized high-pressure equipment to inject premium fiberglass or cellulose fibers into your home's exterior or interior wall cavities. By filling the "empty" space between your studs, we create a dense, seamless thermal blanket that eliminates drafts and significantly reduces energy waste. This "drill-and-fill" method is a surgical approach to home efficiency, providing high-performance results with minimal disruption.
Core Benefits
- Drastic Utility Savings: By sealing the "thermal gaps" in your walls, this service can reduce heating and cooling costs by 20% to 40% in older, under-insulated homes.
- Elimination of Drafts: Unlike batt insulation, loose-fill material conforms to the exact shape of your wall cavity, packing around electrical outlets, plumbing, and wiring to stop air infiltration.

- Eco-Friendly & Safe: We use materials with high recycled content (up to 85% for cellulose) that are treated with borates to be fire-resistant and naturally repellent to pests and mold.
- No Demolition Required: Our process protects your existing finishes, making it an ideal choice for historic homes or recently renovated spaces.
What the Service Includes
- Thermal Imaging & Inspection: We use infrared cameras to identify empty wall cavities and hidden obstructions like fire blocks or cross-bracing.
- Directional "Dense-Pack" Injection: Using a flexible hose, we inject the material at high pressure from the bottom of the cavity to the top, ensuring it is packed tightly enough to prevent future settling.
- Verification: We monitor the material flow and use thermal sensors to confirm that every stud bay is 100% full.
- Professional Restoration: We plug all access holes with custom-fitted tapered plugs and, for siding applications, re-install your siding so the entry points are completely invisible.
Why Choose Wall Blown-In in 2026?
With 2026 climate standards and rising energy costs, uninsulated walls are the largest source of "energy leaks" in the modern home. This service is a permanent, one-time investment that pays for itself through lower monthly bills and increased property value.
