TMC Spray Foam and Coatings is one of the most cost-effective home improvements you can make. It reduces energy use and costs by preventing warm air from escaping during the winter and cool air from leaking in the summer. Insulation also improves comfort and can help reduce noise levels.
Attic insulation is a quick and easy upgrade that can significantly reduce your energy bill. You can expect to recoup up to 116% of the cost, according to Remodeling magazine. You can choose between fiberglass batts, cellulose or spray foam. Each type has its own advantages and benefits, and the choice depends on your specific needs and budget.
Attic Insulation: The Key to a More Comfortable Home
Fiberglass batts are typically made from recycled sand and glass. They’re light-weight, flame resistant and moisture-resistant when paired with a vapor barrier. They’re available in rolls or sheets and fit between rafters or trusses. They’re popular with DIYers but are susceptible to moisture and a favorite snack for raccoons.
Loose-fill insulation is a blown-in solution that consists of tiny particles — like fiberglass, mineral wool or cellulose — and is usually more expensive than blanket or rolled insulation. It provides more effective coverage and fills all gaps. It also offers an R-value higher than other insulation types, promoting balanced heat levels and lower energy bills.
Spray foam is a two-part liquid that expands into an insulating layer upon curing. It has a high R-value, acts as an air barrier and seals leaks, providing structural support and reducing moisture issues. It’s more expensive than other options and must be installed by professionals due to its chemical handling requirements.
