"Top-notch professionals from beginning to end, at a surprisingly reasonable cost. I have an older home built in 1977 that had minimal attic insulation, and some of it was degraded and useless. Brian did an initial inspection and I received a summary of what needed to be done, with five different cost options. A zoom meeting with Brock clarified work elements and any questions I had. A very efficient Triangle Radiant Barrier crew installed fiberglass batts against interior walls, radiant barrier on flooring and walls, an insulation cover for the pull-down stairs, air-sealed utility penetrations, and sealed HVAC connections. Even though this work was recently done, I can already tell a positive difference. The air flow inside the house is more even (no warm/cool pockets) and I don't have to wear layers of clothing on cold nights. It's early days yet, but the insulation work should also save 10%-15% on energy costs over time. Triangle Radiant Barrier will adjust their work elements to your budget and needs, and they are 100% reliable in standing behind their work. Payment is not due until work is completed and inspected. I highly recommend them!"

"So happy I went with USA Insulation. After learning about foam insulation, I knew it was the right option for my house. They insulated my walls and attic in a day and a half, and I could feel the difference right away."

"Insulation Commandos insulated my garage drywall, and I had a great experience working with them. Tony was especially helpful in explaining the available options and recommending the solution that best fit my garage and specific needs. He was knowledgeable, professional, and even managed to fit me into his schedule on short notice, which I greatly appreciated."

"We recently worked with Evergreen Foam & Insulation on a new construction project where they applied spray foam insulation to the walls and roof deck. Their team was professional, efficient, and maintained clear communication throughout the process. The quality of their work met our expectations, and they completed the job on schedule without any issues. The attention to detail during application was excellent, and the site was left clean and ready for the next phase of construction. We’re pleased with the results and look forward to working with Evergreen Foam & Insulation on future projects."

"l Everyone we dealt with was extremely nice and friendly, including the guys that came out to the house. The person we spoke with initially gave us a cost estimate based on the square footage of our house and how many vents he estimated we had (I hadn't counted and he said he'd guess since it was an estimate). I told him that we had a vent with some nesting-type material that blew up from it when we first turned on the air (this is a new home that had sat empty for two years) and we wanted a company that had the capability to inspect the interior of the ducts that we couldn't see in the craw space. He assured me they could do that as well.
The appointment was rescheduled once, but they warned me that may happen and I wasn't upset at all about that.
They showed up on time and communicated well with us the day of the appointment so we knew when to expect them. When the technician called I asked him if they could also check our two intakes as the duct board was loose on both and causing air to escape into the crawl space and closet. He told me they could do that easily and carried the appropriate tape to easily fix the problem.
For $800, they spent only two hours at our house and only vacuumed out the ducts (of which we have FAR less than the original guess the representative made when quoting the project). No camera was used to check ducts. One week after the cleaning, one duct began blowing insulation that has collected in it's vent cover. They also only repaired one of the intakes with the loose duct board. The other hadn't looked touched, although they assured us they fixed both.
While they were very nice people, I feel quite ripped off and definitely did not get my money's worth. I found out, after the fact, that my mother-in-law had a similar service from another company. Same price, but they were at her house for 7 hours. That's a considerable difference.

"MGs Roofing was absolutely amazing to work with from the start! Mike and Matt did all of the leg work for us from inspection to contacting insurance to installation and follow up. Prompt, reliable and professional. In these busy times, it is much needed and refreshing and the model for conducting excellent business! We had a new roof within a week! All work completes in one day. I work from home and besides some hammering, hardly knew they were hereâ ¦. and the outcome is a stunningly beautiful, great quality, architectural shingled roof that adds beauty to our modern farmhouse. The process was simple yet professional from beginning to end. Thank MGs Roofing for our amazing new roof. Pics here donâ t do it justice! Swing on by and have a look. 5701 Cornwallis Road in Garner, NC. Highly recommend MGs Roofing for all your roofing needs!"

FAQs for batt, rolled or reflective insulation install or upgrade projects in Durham, NC

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.
