Lx5 Insulators install spray foam insulation, fiberglass, and other types of insulation to help homes, pole barns, and other buildings be more energy-efficient. These professionals also ensure that air leaks are properly sealed to provide maximum comfort. While hiring an insulation contractor may cost more than doing the job yourself, the long-term energy savings and comfort they offer make it worth the investment.
Some insulation contractors specialize in a certain type of insulation, such as cellulose, fiberglass, or spray foam, while others offer an entire range of insulation solutions. In addition to installing insulation, they can also assess the situation, review blueprints, and recommend appropriate materials and installation methods. They often work with construction contractors and architects to ensure that building specifications and standards are met.
When choosing a contractor, be sure to ask them 8 questions:
1. Are you licensed?
Licensing requirements vary by state but typically include passing an exam and maintaining professional standards. If a contractor is not licensed, it’s best not to hire them.
2. How much experience do you have?
Contractors with more experience are usually better equipped to handle the challenges of different projects. They’ll know what kind of insulation is most appropriate based on climate, home design, and area of the house. They also have the expertise to address unforeseen problems and provide a solution quickly.
When interviewing insulation contractors, be sure to discuss R-values. Make sure they’re using a product that has a specific R-value per inch and not simply an R-value per square foot. Also, find out how their installers are paid. If they’re paid by the hour, they might be tempted to do a sloppy job on your home just to get on to the next job.
