"Excellent customer service & relations. They asked questions & kept me informed during the entire project. This project involved adding insulation to an under insulated attic, sealing around areas in the ceiling that were leaking air into the rooms, resealing attic access & installing 2 new fans in the attic peaks. They walked me through the work when finished & answered my questions. They cleaned everything up prior to leaving. I would recommend to others."

"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."

"What an absolute DREAM! Correct Energy is an incredible company. Knowledge, professional and efficient! I contacted a few insulation companies but the proposed methods were not through. Correct Energy and especially Ray’s knowledge and experience were above and beyond. CE came out to assess and spent a generous amt of time explaining EVERYTHING. CE came when they said they would. The crew was professional and spent a few days here. They left everything immaculate. My place is old, built in the 1940’s so many challenges came up that they handled like absolute pro’s. Their work has and will continue to save so much on energy, the difference of before and after is immediate and drastic. I can’t wait for them to come back and do my basement next! I can't say enough about this company. Pros work here!!! Hire them!!! You will not be disappointed.."

"I was at my wit's end with the rodents in my home. I consulted other companies who all had different answers- none of them correct or ever able to fix the problem. This company stepped in and were an absolute life saver. I feel comfortable in my home again! Not only did they roll their sleeves up and do a deep dive to find the root of the problem, they fixed it right the first time. That was something noone else had been able to do. I appreciate the time they took with me explaining in depth what they found, what they needed to do, and what to expect. They charged a fair price and backed their work. I would (and have) recommended them to everyone I know. If you need help- this is the company to call!"

"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."

"I have used Xterior Solutions for several projects including a new roof on my house and garage . We just recently had them install new insulated siding on the house and garage. They also installed new windows in the garage.All I can say is that they did a fantastic job from start to finish. They will work with you from start to finish and they were very neat upon completion.It was a big project but they were neat and professional.Other folks in the area drove by and asked who did the great job,and I am sure they will give them a call.My friend on Watson Hollow rd. did and he is very pleased.I highly recommend them and that's why most folks give them 5 stars."

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.
