Types of Insulation

Blanket Insulation (Rolls and Batts)

Blanket insulation is one of the most common and affordable insulation options. There are two types of blanket insulation, rolls and batts. Roll insulation is typically best for covering large areas without many obstructions. Batts are typically used in between walls, floors, and ceilings. Blanket insulation is a great choice for anyone who wants better comfort on a budget.

Blown-In Insulation

Blown-in insulation is a quick and efficient way to upgrade your home's energy efficiency. Perfect for attics, walls, and tricky spots, it fills in gaps with precision, ensuring no nook is left unfilled. Unlike rolls or batts, blown-in insulation can adapt to any space, offering a snug fit and better comfort. Ideal for those looking to boost their home's warmth without a major overhaul, blown-in insulation is a budget-friendly, comfort-enhancing choice.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation provides the most airtight seal of any insulation option, making it a top choice for energy efficiency. Applied wet, it expands into a hard foam, filling cracks and crevices with ease. Spray foam insulation is great for insulating walls, roofs, and hard-to-reach places and also works to strengthen structures. If you want a premium, all-in-one insulation solution to significantly reduce energy bills and improve indoor comfort, spray foam insulation could be the best choice for you.
