"the insulation they recommended saved me about 5000kw a year. the amount of money i am saving is far more the insulation payment on my Eversource bill. No money cost to me out of pocket and my electric bill dropped quite a bit. best move i ever did."

"Easy company to work with. In our large crawl space a few spots were missed. One call and the crew was back in 2 days to do touch up. Note that this was difficult work-lying on your back spraying above you with respiratory & eye protection so to miss a few spots might be expected as well as how insulation expands. They did great job removing old batt insulation Filled w mouse poop"

"Bill Brown is a man on a mission (fortunately for me). I needed insulation. He immediately steered me to a free energy audit from the utilities (they also installed efficient lights and shower heads plus plugging leaks in duct work All for free ) and that qualified me for a state insulation rebate. Bill did the work expertly. The rebate was 85% of the insulation cost."

"I liked that the first questions we were asked was "Have you had a home energy audit done? Did you know you can get a rebate on your insulation project?" Before even knowing the scope of our project, they were looking to help make it more affordable for us."

"Recently had my attic insulated by Best Homes. Chris and his crew were professional and very efficient with their work. They insulated my attic within a few hours and left my house cleaner than it was before they got there. I wouldn't want the job done by anyone else."

Old insulation should be removed when it shows damage, contamination, or heavy deterioration. If you notice water stains, rodent droppings, mold, or large gaps, plan on taking it out to protect your home’s energy performance and indoor air quality. Removing compromised material eliminates health hazards, cuts energy loss, and sets the stage for a safer, more efficient attic—all while keeping utility bills in check.
R-value measures how well insulation resists heat flow—the higher the number, the better it slows heat transfer. The right R-value keeps your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer, saving energy year-round. Match the rating to your climate zone and have a pro verify performance over time, because moisture or settling can lower R-value and cut efficiency.
Attic insulation can stay in place for 80 to 100 years, but its performance often drops after the first 15. As dust, moisture, or mold build up, the material loses R-value and allows heat to escape. Schedule periodic inspections so a pro can tell you when replacement makes sense—helping you keep energy bills down and indoor comfort up.
You can over-insulate an attic. Beyond the recommended R-value, extra layers don’t add efficiency and can trap moisture, leading to mold or reduced performance. A local insulation pro can measure current levels, confirm the right target for your climate, and advise on any adjustments so you avoid future energy or maintenance headaches.
Insulation can be damaged by mold, pests, water leaks, or accidental electrical contact. When the material is compromised, it loses R-value and can introduce health hazards. Removing and replacing affected sections restores efficiency, while routine inspections from a qualified pro help you catch problems early and keep your attic safe and energy-smart.
