Blown-In Insulation

At Kirsch Construction, we understand the importance of proper insulation for the comfort, energy efficiency, and overall health of your home. That's why we offer top-quality blown-in insulation services to help you create a more comfortable, cost-effective, and sustainable living environment.

Blown-in insulation is a highly effective method of insulating your home, especially in hard-to-reach areas like attics, walls, and crawl spaces. This type of insulation is made from small particles of material, such as cellulose, fiberglass, or rock wool, that are blown into the desired space using specialized equipment. The result is a seamless, gap-free layer of insulation that provides superior thermal and acoustic performance.

Our team of experienced insulation specialists has the knowledge, skills, and equipment to handle all your blown-in insulation needs. We'll work with you to assess your home's current insulation levels, identify areas that need improvement, and recommend the best solution for your specific needs and budget. Whether you're looking to upgrade your existing insulation, add insulation to a new construction project, or retrofit an older home, we have the expertise to get the job done right.

At Kirsch Construction, we use only the highest-quality insulation materials and state-of-the-art equipment to ensure that your insulation is installed correctly and performs optimally. We follow all industry standards and best practices for safety, efficiency, and effectiveness, and we stand behind our work with a satisfaction guarantee.

From attic to crawl space, we offer tailored insulation services to improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. Our expertise extends to soundproofing and energy audits, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your insulation needs.

01.

Blown-In Attic Insulation:

The attic is one of the most important areas of your home to insulate, as it can account for a significant portion of your home’s heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. Blown-in attic insulation is an effective way to fill gaps and create a seamless barrier against heat transfer. We offer a range of materials for blown-in attic insulation, including cellulose, fiberglass, and rock wool, and we’ll work with you to determine the best option for your specific needs and budget.

02.

Wall Insulation:

Insulating your walls is another important step in creating a more comfortable and energy-efficient home. Blown-in wall insulation can be installed in both new construction and existing homes, using a process called dense-pack insulation. This involves drilling small holes in the walls, blowing the insulation material into the cavities, and then sealing the holes for a seamless finish. Dense-pack insulation provides superior thermal and acoustic performance, and can help reduce drafts and cold spots in your home.

03.

Crawl Space Insulation:

If your home has a crawl space, it’s important to insulate this area to prevent heat loss and moisture issues. Blown-in insulation is an effective way to insulate crawl spaces, as it can fill gaps and conform to irregular surfaces. We offer a range of materials for crawl space insulation, including fiberglass and rock wool, and we’ll work with you to determine the best option for your specific needs and budget.

04.

Soundproofing:

In addition to its thermal benefits, blown-in insulation can also provide excellent soundproofing properties. If you live in a noisy area or want to reduce sound transmission between rooms, blown-in insulation can help create a quieter, more peaceful living environment. We offer a range of materials for soundproofing, including cellulose and rock wool, and we’ll work with you to determine the best option for your specific needs and budget.

05.

Energy Audits:

Before recommending any insulation upgrades, we offer comprehensive energy audits to assess your home’s current insulation levels and identify areas for improvement. Our energy audits include a thorough inspection of your home’s insulation, air sealing, and ventilation, as well as a blower door test to measure air leakage. Based on the results of the audit, we’ll provide you with a detailed report and recommendations for improving your home’s energy efficiency and comfort.

06.

Insulation Removal:

In some cases, old or damaged insulation may need to be removed before new insulation can be installed. We offer professional insulation removal services to safely and efficiently remove old insulation materials, including those that may contain hazardous materials like asbestos. We follow all industry standards and regulations for the safe handling and disposal of insulation materials, and we’ll ensure that your home is clean and ready for new insulation installation.
