Attic Insulation

You can when you upgrade the attic insulation in your home. As the Mid Coast and Southern Maine energy efficiency expert, we help homeowners from Rockland down to Portland increase home efficiency and comfort with professional attic insulation services.

How Attic Insulation Works

Insulation stabilizes indoor temperatures by controlling the way heat moves through your home. In the winter, attic insulation keeps naturally rising indoor heat from entering the attic and escaping through the roof, so that valuable heat stays in your living spaces where it belongs. Meanwhile, in the summer, it keeps unwanted outside heat from seeping down into your home through the attic.

When you have an experienced professional insulate your attic, you can expect whole-home benefits like:

• Consistent temperatures from room to room

• Greater indoor comfort year-round

• Less need to run heating & cooling equipment

• Lower annual heating & cooling costs

• Greater home energy efficiency

• Prevention of ice dams in the winter

The Best Types of Insulation for Attics

Blown-in Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose is an eco-friendly non-toxic insulation material made from recycled newspaper, which has been treated for fire, mold, and pest resistance. It may be installed in loose form or densely packed into cavities to minimize air leakage. For customers who do not use their attics, we install blown-in cellulose along the attic floor -- with added depth to provide superior soundproofing and accommodate settling, For homeowners who desire useable space, we can densely pack the cellulose under the attic floorboards or into the rafter cavities.

Air Sealing with Spray Foam Insulation

Cellulose is the primary insulation material we use in attics. However,  before installing the cellulose, our insulation specialists apply spray foam to any holes, cracks, and gaps to further eliminate air leakage. This vital step helps your attic insulation work more effectively and is critical in preventing ice dams from forming on your roof.
