Choosing Local Attic Insulation Contractors

When you hire a spray foam insulation, you’re partnering with someone who understands the challenges and benefits of installing attic insulation. The right contractor can cut your energy bills and boost comfort for decades. The wrong one can leave you with a mess in your attic and an expensive repair bill.

Whether you’re considering blown-in or spray foam insulation, find contractors who are licensed and insured with a business license and certifications from groups like the Insulation Contractors Association of America and Home Performance with ENERGY STAR. These credentials show that they’re up to date on industry standards and are dedicated to improving homes.

Ask potential contractors for references from local homeowners and look up online reviews. A reputable insulation contractor will welcome this request and be eager to share positive feedback from past clients.

Make an appointment with two or three contractors for an in-home evaluation and estimate. This will give you the opportunity to compare prices, product suggestions and professionalism. It’s also a great way to gauge how well the contractors communicate and how responsive they are to questions.

Finally, you should ask potential insulation contractors about their experience with the climate in your area. For example, very cold regions require insulation with higher R-values to prevent heat loss. A knowledgeable local contractor will recommend the best materials for your region and know how to air seal and properly insulate a shoreline cape in Old Saybrook or a Glastonbury colonial.
