Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between spray foam and fiberglass insulation?
Spray foam provides superior air sealing and higher R-value per inch, making it ideal for irregular spaces and maximum energy efficiency. Fiberglass is more cost-effective for standard applications and easier to install in accessible areas like attics.Do you provide agricultural insulation services?
Yes, we specialize in agricultural insulation for barns, livestock facilities, and storage buildings throughout Colorado. Our agricultural solutions help maintain consistent temperatures for livestock comfort and protect stored equipment from temperature fluctuations.How does spray foam perform in Colorado's climate?
Spray foam excels in Colorado's variable climate with temperature swings and dry conditions. It creates an effective air barrier that prevents drafts and maintains consistent indoor temperatures, especially important during harsh mountain winters.What areas do you serve for insulation services?
We provide insulation services throughout Winter Park, Kersey, Walden, and Sterling, Colorado. As a locally based company, we understand the specific climate challenges and building requirements across these mountain and plains communities.Do you offer waterproofing along with insulation?
Yes, we provide comprehensive waterproofing services to complement our insulation work. This combination approach ensures complete moisture control and energy efficiency, particularly important in Colorado's varied climate conditions.How much preparation is needed before insulation installation?
We handle most preparation work including area clearing and surface inspection. For spray foam, we ensure proper ventilation during application. For fiberglass, we verify framing and electrical work is complete before installation begins.When's the best time to install insulation?
While insulation can be installed year-round, late fall through early spring offers scheduling advantages and immediate energy savings. In Colorado, completing insulation before winter provides immediate heating cost benefits and improved comfort.What factors affect insulation project costs?
Project size, insulation type, accessibility, and building complexity determine costs. Spray foam typically costs more initially but provides higher performance, while fiberglass offers excellent value for standard applications in accessible areas.How long do your insulation installations take?
Most residential projects complete within one to three days depending on square footage and complexity. Agricultural projects may take longer due to building size. We provide specific timelines during your consultation.What energy savings can I expect from insulation?
Properly installed insulation typically reduces heating and cooling costs by 15-30% in Colorado homes. Spray foam often provides higher savings due to superior air sealing, especially in older homes with draft issues.Do you work on both homes and farm buildings?
Yes, we serve both residential and agricultural clients across our service areas. Our experience includes homes, barns, livestock facilities, and storage buildings, adapting our approach to each structure's specific requirements and usage patterns.How do I schedule an insulation consultation?
