Professional Cellulose Insulation Installation
Cellulose is an eco-friendly loose-fill material made primarily from recycled paper. Blown-in cellulose insulation allows the material to fill gaps and irregular spaces that can be difficult to insulate with batt products.
Cellulose fiber insulation can improve coverage around joists, wiring, pipes, and other obstructions in attics to prevent unwanted heat transfer.
At Larson & Keeney Home Services, we use industry-leading cellulose as part of our blown-in insulation services. Before adding new attic insulation, our team evaluates your space and prepares it to ensure the new insulation performs reliably.
Benefits of Cellulose Insulation
Professionally installed blown-in cellulose insulation provides several benefits for comfort and energy efficiency in your Milwaukee-area home.
- More consistent attic coverage: Blown-in cellulose conforms around joists, wiring, pipes, and other obstructions. This makes it useful for covering irregular attic spaces that can be difficult to insulate evenly with batt products.
- Improved year-round comfort: Insulation resists heat flow between conditioned and unconditioned areas. Better attic insulation can help your home maintain more consistent indoor temperatures through cold Wisconsin winters and warm summers.
- Better energy efficiency: An under-insulated attic can allow unwanted heat transfer that makes your heating and cooling equipment work harder. Bringing attic insulation to an appropriate level can improve the home’s overall energy performance.
- Made with recycled fiber: Cellulose insulation is made primarily from recycled paper fiber. Our team uses cellulose that is also treated for fire resistance.
Cellulose vs. Other Insulation Types
Cellulose and fiberglass can both be effective insulation materials, but their installation methods and advantages differ. The right option depends on your home’s existing insulation, attic conditions, and project goals.
Our cellulose vs. fiberglass insulation guide provides a closer comparison of the two materials.
Our Cellulose Insulation Installation Process
Proper installation helps blown-in cellulose insulation provide consistent coverage throughout your attic. We follow a precise, proven approach to install the insulation for long-term performance.
Evaluate the Existing Insulation
We start by inspecting your attic and evaluating the condition and amount of existing insulation. Our team also looks for deterioration, damage, and areas of energy loss so we can recommend an insulation solution based on your home’s needs.
Prepare the Area for Installation
Before adding new insulation, our team prepares the attic and seals visible air leaks around fixtures, vents, and gaps. If existing insulation is damp, contaminated, or no longer performing properly, removal may also be recommended before new material is installed.
Blown-In Cellulose Installation
Using professional equipment, our team blows cellulose into the designated attic areas to create consistent coverage. Blowing in cellulose insulation allows the loose-fill material to fit around joists and other obstacles and brings the attic to the appropriate insulation level.
Final Check and Cleanup
After installation, our team checks the attic for even insulation coverage and proper ventilation. We then clean the work area so your home is left in good condition when the project is complete.
How Much Does Cellulose Insulation Cost?
The cost of cellulose insulation varies from home to home. Cellulose insulation pricing depends on the size of your attic, condition of existing insulation, accessibility, preparation requirements, and how much material is needed.
An attic with damaged insulation or significant air leakage may require more preparation than a simple insulation upgrade. Larson & Keeney Home Services can inspect your attic and provide an estimate based on the actual conditions in your home.
We also offer financing options to help qualified homeowners fit insulation improvements into their budget.
