Residential Blown-In Insulation
Expert Residential Blown-In Insulation Services in Mattoon, IL
Residential blown-in insulation is one of the most effective and cost-efficient solutions for homeowners looking to improve attic and wall performance without major disruption. At Insulation Service, we specialize in installing high-quality cellulose or fiberglass loose-fill insulation with the use of specialized blowing equipment that is meant to be able to cover the entire area completely. Having many gaps, corners, and cavities that normal batts cannot cover, residential blown-in insulation results in a continuous thermal resistance. The outcome of this insulation is a lower heat loss, a lower air leakage, and improved energy efficiency. Regardless of whether your house is older with little insulation or is relatively new and ineffective, our solutions are one of the most reliable means of making the house more comfortable and less costly to keep. We are proudly providing homeowners in Mattoon and Central Illinois with insulation systems that transform their attics and walls to provide high-performing insulation systems that provide long-term comfort and savings.

We offer cellulose and fiberglass blown-in insulations that can be installed in your house according to the structure, energy objectives, and finances. We have a qualified staff that assists in selecting the type of material to use, depending on your requirements. Cellulose insulation is a recycled paper that has been treated with a fire-retardant and pest-resistant treatment, which is more eco-friendly and has good sound control and air-blocking capabilities. It creates a thick coating that blocks the airflow and seals gaps that are not regular. Fiberglass blown-in insulation is composed of very fine glass fibers that form a lightweight, non-combustible barrier that is not moisture resistant and does not alter its shape with age. It is perfect in the attic, where there is a possibility of periodic use. In the case of attics, we add insulation up to the suggested level with markers to assure even coverage. In the case of walls, we put in each hole; we patiently fill and seal holes in a clean way without leaving your home looking any different.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does residential blown-in insulation cost?
The price of blown-in insulation depends on the size of your home, the desired R-value, and the type of material chosen. Nevertheless, it is usually the most affordable method of drastically reducing the energy consumption of your house. We ensure that we do not give you any obligation estimates but offer transparent prices so that you can make an informed choice.
How long does blown-in attic insulation last?
If installed properly, blown-in insulation keeps its thermal performance throughout the existence of your home. There is a small amount of initial settling that may be experienced in the early days of the product, which we take into consideration during installation, but both cellulose and fiberglass offer decades of serviceable operation without the necessity of replacement.
Will blown-in insulation make my attic too hot or cause ice dams?
Properly installed blown-in insulation would prevent ice dams by keeping the heat in your living quarters and your attic cold. Ice dams develop when heat is lost to the attic, which melts snow, which later refreezes at the eaves. Blown-in insulation prevents the formation of ice dams because it prevents heat loss in the areas.
Can you add blown-in insulation over my existing attic insulation?
Yes, we can traditionally lay blown-in insulation directly over your already-existing insulation in most cases to the desired R-value. It is among the most frequent and effective home energy upgrades that we do. This will be evaluated through our free consultation, in which we will determine your existing insulation to make sure this solution is suitable for your home.
How do I know if my home needs more attic insulation?
In the event you have less than 10 to 12 inches of insulation in your attic, have larger-than-expected energy bills, feel a draft in your house, or have ice dams in winter, you would most probably be able to do with additional blown-in insulation. Our free consultation involves the evaluation of your existing insulation.
