What Your Insulation Contractor Will Do

Unless you are a do-it-yourselfer, trying to save as much money as possible (installing batt insulation is about the only thing you can do yourself) you should hire an insulating contractor for a total insulation package.

A complete insulation package should include: ● All labor and materials for installing floor, attic, wall, and basement insulation. ● Application of foam around framed-in doors and windows. ● Foaming of holes which allow passage of wire or pipe.
● Foaming of any opening through a wall that separates heated from non-heated area. ● Caulk edges of sole-plate lumber, where wood touches concrete. Some insulation contractors offer even more services. Ask for the full-range of services they offer and consider each on a case-by-case basis.
