"I had an addition put on over the summer. The GC used Affordable Energy for all the fiberglass insulation. The crew did such a good job that I decided to hire Affordable Energy to spray foam the sill plates in my existing basement. I had old fiberglass insulation that I removed myself since the sills were very leaky. The spray foam crew came in and did an awesome job as well. Peter is quick to respond if any issues rise up. I can definitely tell the difference in my basement already. No complaints and I would recommend Affordable Energy."

"Dealing with drafty walls and escalating heating costs was a persistent issue in our home, until we discovered Saratoga Cellulose & Foam. The difference they made was nothing short of miraculous. What sets them apart, aside from their exceptional service, is the depth of knowledge and expertise that Travis, the owner, brings to the table. Travis and his team tackled a significant challenge in our home â removing old fiberglass insulation that had been severely damaged by mice. Not only did they efficiently clear out the old material, but they also replaced it with top-notch cellulose insulation containing borate. This choice was ingenious, as the borate makes the insulation unappealing to mice and insects, effectively addressing our pest problem alongside the insulation upgrade. The transformation in our home was immediate and profound. The drafts that once made living spaces uncomfortable are now completely gone. Our house is not only warmer and cozier but also healthier and more energy-efficient, leading to noticeably lower heating bills. I'm thoroughly impressed by the professionalism and skill demonstrated by Travis and his team. Their work didn't just improve our home; it enhanced our daily living quality. I highly recommend Saratoga Cellulose & Foam to anyone looking for top-tier insulation services. They don't just do the job â they do it with excellence and a deep understanding of what your home needs."

"Matt at Get Out! Pest Control were incredible. When we discovered bats in our home, they responded quickly and handled the situation with professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care. Matt took the time to explain the process, made sure everything was done safely and humanely, and gave us real peace of mind. You could tell he truly cares about helping people, not just doing a job. If you ever find yourself dealing with a wildlife issue, this is absolutely the company to call. Highly recommend!"

"OK. Foam wasn't as uniformly full between studs as with previous 2013 same foam insulation material applied by a Pittsfield, MA similar contractor (no longer in business, apparently). Not a large technical concern.   Pointed out some small partially filled voids at baseboards. Contractor filled them without issue. In fairness quote of June 2016 said 5.5" thickness, not "uniformly full to studs" nor "smooth at studs' faces".   I would have preferred that spray "ripples" were less pronounced.   I don't expect any reduction in insulating effect, sound deadening or air infiltration prevention.  Contractor was flexible with start date when I took a few days longer to get electrical done than originally planned.  Contractor cleaned up after themselves thoroughly.  Arrived at 09:15 and departed at 13:00 for about 450 square foot job.  Minimal equipment trailer and truck "footprint" on driveway."

"It went well. There were no problems. Disposal of old door and clean up after installation were great. They didn't have to re-do as much of the adjacent siding (that they had installed previously) as anticipated, and as a result lowered the cost from their upfront estimate. This was at least 2 or 3 years ago, so I don't recall dates or cost."

FAQs for batt, rolled or reflective insulation install or upgrade projects in Albany, NY

Batt insulation excels in vertical installations because it remains firmly in place and delivers consistent thermal performance. Blown-in insulation performs exceptionally in spaces such as attics, efficiently filling gaps in irregular areas. 

Employing both insulation types according to their strengths enhances your home’s overall energy efficiency and comfort by providing a tailored solution for every space.

Start by measuring the square footage of the space, then match that area with the insulation thickness you need to hit your target R-value. Add a buffer for waste and odd-shaped spots so every cavity is covered. 

Once you have a rough count, run it past a local insulation pro—their on-site advice will fine-tune the numbers and help you avoid costly miscalculations.

Old insulation that is dry, intact, and mold-free does not require removal before adding new insulation; stacking new insulation over it maintains effective thermal performance and boosts energy efficiency. 

If the insulation is damp, moldy, or deteriorated, removal is necessary to eliminate health risks and ensure maximum effectiveness of the new layer. A professional insulation contractor will assess your situation and recommend the most effective solution.

Installing insulation in an average-sized home using batts or boards requires five to 12 hours. Using spray foam or blown-in insulation requires two to five hours. These timeframes are determined by the area’s size, accessibility, and whether old insulation must be removed. 

Complex projects and hard-to-reach spaces demand extra time. Hiring an experienced insulation professional ensures that the installation is completed efficiently and correctly.

Insulation is measured by R-value, which defines how effectively it resists heat flow. A higher R-value provides superior thermal resistance, ensuring your home remains warm in winter and cool in summer. 

Choosing the correct R-value is essential for maximizing energy efficiency and comfort, and it directly impacts long-term utility savings. Professional guidance determines the optimal R-value for your specific climate.
