Fiberglass Insulation

Fiberglass insulation remains the most widely used insulation material in North America, trusted by builders and homeowners for over 80 years. Made from fine glass fibers that trap air pockets, fiberglass provides reliable thermal resistance at an affordable price point. Its proven performance, non-combustible properties, and versatility make it an excellent choice for virtually any insulation project. Whether you're building new construction, renovating an existing home, or upgrading your attic insulation, fiberglass delivers consistent results that improve comfort and reduce energy costs for decades.

Available Forms and Applications

We install fiberglass insulation in multiple forms to suit different applications. Batt insulation comes in pre-cut sections designed to fit standard wall stud and joist spacing, making it ideal for new construction and accessible renovation projects. Rolls provide continuous coverage for longer runs in attics and other large spaces. Blown-in loose-fill fiberglass excels in existing attics where adding depth is needed, around obstacles, and in hard-to-reach areas where batts won't fit. Each form has distinct advantages, and our professionals select the optimal type based on your project's specific requirements, accessibility, and budget considerations.

Performance Advantages

Fiberglass insulation offers several compelling benefits that explain its enduring popularity. The material is naturally non-combustible, requiring no chemical fire retardants and providing inherent fire resistance that enhances home safety. It doesn't absorb moisture, so it won't lose R-value or promote mold growth when exposed to humidity. Fiberglass is dimensionally stable and doesn't settle significantly over time when properly installed, maintaining its thermal performance for the life of your home. The material contains recycled glass content, typically 40-60%, making it a more sustainable choice than many realize. Modern formulations are also formaldehyde-free, addressing past health concerns.

Professional Installation Matters

While fiberglass is often considered a DIY-friendly material, professional installation ensures optimal performance. Our trained installers know how to achieve proper coverage without gaps, compression, or voids that reduce effectiveness. We cut batts precisely to fit around obstacles like electrical boxes, pipes, and irregular framing. We understand the importance of maintaining proper ventilation in attics and crawl spaces while maximizing insulation coverage. For blown-in applications, we use calibrated equipment to achieve consistent density and depth throughout the space. Proper installation can mean the difference between achieving rated R-values and falling short, directly impacting your comfort and energy savings.

Cost-Effectiveness and Value

Fiberglass insulation delivers exceptional value through its combination of performance, longevity, and affordability. Material costs typically run lower than alternatives like spray foam or mineral wool, making comprehensive insulation coverage more accessible. The energy savings begin immediately, with most homeowners seeing heating and cooling cost reductions of 15-30% depending on previous insulation levels. The investment typically pays for itself within three to seven years through energy savings alone, while continuing to deliver benefits for decades. When combined with proper air sealing, fiberglass insulation creates an effective thermal barrier that keeps your home comfortable year-round while minimizing environmental impact through reduced energy consumption.
