Insulation

While estimating your roof, we look at all of the aspects that make up the entire roof system.  Attic insulation plays a major role in ensuring the entire roof system functions properly.  Venting also goes hand-in-hand with a properly insulated attic.  A complete inspection from us ensures that your house will get the proper attention.

Other Insulation Facts:

  • Properly insulating your attic will help reduce your energy bills.
  • Insulating attics are the most cost-effective places in a house to insulate.
  • In a recent survey, only 20% of homes built before 1980 were well insulated.
  • The Department of Energy has six insulation zones for the U.S. and in Zone 5 and 6, Iowans benefit the most from having a well-insulated home.  Adding insulation here has the quickest return on your investment.  To learn more about insulation and as it relates to living in Iowa, click here.
  • Lost energy from poor R-value (or thermal resistance) not only affects your wallet, it has a large impact on the environment.  Think Green!  This value is dependent on the type of insulation, its thickness, and the density.  To learn more, click here.
