Insulation Gulf Shores, AL

Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) is becoming an increasingly popular form of insulation material. The material contains isocyanate and polyol. When combined, these materials expand to more than 30 times the original volume. This allows us to spray in the smallest of openings and adequately air seal your property. Spray foam offers notable benefits that more traditional insulation methods such as fiberglass may not provide. Notable benefits of spray foam insulation in Gulf Shores, Alabama include:

1. Save more than 15% on energy costs (according to the EPA)
2. Keep pests away from your home’s vulnerable areas (i.e. attic, crawl space)
3. Create a quieter home and improve your home’s air quality
4. Increase your home comfort and overall value

There are two primary types of spray foam — open-cell and closed-cell. Open-cell is better for sound-proofing your property as it expands more and absorbs the sound; it is also more affordable than closed-cell. Closed-cell is denser and better for moisture control and water damage prevention. Since more volume is needed for closed-cell spray foam, the application usually costs more. When determining which is right for you, we consider your location, the risk of moisture and water damage, and the required R-value.

You’ll be impressed with the results of spray foam insulation. If you have a larger budget and want maximum R-value and home value, then spray foam insulation may be right for you.

Fiberglass insulation is one of the most common types of insulation. For decades, it was the most popular option, and it is as reliable today as it has always been.

The fiberglass material is made of strong and durable plastic and glass fibers for reinforcement. This is more affordable than spray foam insulation and blown-in cellulose. However, it is not nearly as durable; it lasts between 15 and 20 years on average.

We typically recommend fiberglass insulation for Gulf Shores residents who want a more affordable (yet reliable) solution for their insulation needs. It may not be ideal for those who want maximum long-term durability.

In many ways, blown cellulose insulation is the perfect balance of affordability and quality. It costs less than spray foam, and it is more durable than fiberglass. It often has a better overall R-value than fiberglass as well.

So what is cellulose insulation? Cellulose is made from treated paper fibers. Overall, it is a more environmentally friendly solution. This material slows down air flow and helps keep your home at the optimal temperature throughout the year. It maintains its R-value well for more than two decades in most cases. Overall, blown cellulose lasts between 20 and 30 years. Also, despite being partially comprised of paper, it is fire-resistant; this is because the cellulose is treated before it is applied.

Blown-in cellulose insulation may be right for you if you want a balance between affordability and overall quality. It is widely considered higher quality than fiberglass and more affordable than spray foam.
