Attic insulation is an essential component of a well-functioning home. It prevents energy loss and improves indoor comfort. A properly insulated attic also reduces the risk of pipes freezing in the winter and leads to lower energy bills.

Many homes have little to no attic insulation. This may be due to historical construction practices, limited access or a lack of awareness about the benefits of attic insulation. In some cases, regional climate conditions play a role as well.

Boost Your Home’s Value with Proper Attic Insulation

Insufficient attic insulation can result in temperature fluctuations throughout the house. This can make rooms on the upper floors uncomfortable and lead to higher utility bills. Insulation prevents heat from escaping in the winter, and it keeps air from seeping into the attic. It can also help prevent ice dams, which occur when melting snow freezes behind the roof shingles and leaks into the attic.

Insulation is available in a wide variety of materials and styles, ranging from fiberglass batts to loose-fill insulation. Loose-fill insulation is blown into place and can be made from materials such as cellulose, fiberglass, or rock wool. It offers a good value and works well in attics with small gaps or corners.

Spray foam insulation is a great choice for homeowners who are looking to insulate an attic with minimal disruption. This type of insulation is sprayed on to the attic floor and expands, filling in cracks and sealing gaps. It is one of the best insulators on the market and is available in open-cell or closed-cell varieties.
