Customers say: Super punctual

"Insulwise insulated our attic last fall and I am very pleased with the result. At first we saw no impact on gas bill either dollars or therms. I call Columbia Gas and learned that we had an overpriced gas supplier. After we switched suppliers, our monthly budget dropped from $254 to $86!! As advertised, our home was more comfortable this winter and we got a 10% credit on income tax ($251). Your salesman and installers were professional and hardworking. Thank you for an excellent job."

"They responded quickly, gave me a terrific price, and came the next week to install the gutters. We had been calling several other companies, and either no one returned our calls, or they needed us to wait weeks or months to have the project done. I highly recommend this company."

"I recently had a full house roof replaced and crawl space insulation performed. The Home Genius Exteriors team that provided the services consisted of Elliot (Home Remodeling Expert/Salesman), Lauren (Scheduler Contact), Andrew (Roofing Project Manager) and his roofing insulation crew, Billy (Project Manager for the insulation) and Brian (Insulation Installer). The entire team was friendly, friendly, professional, detailed, thorough and customer focused. The replacement process was explained step by step. I was kept up to date throughout each activity. My questions were welcomed and answered without hesitation by everyone involved. The workmanship was fast and efficient. Also, they took pride in cleanup efforts once the projects were complete. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Home Genius Exteriors for any home remodeling projects that fall under their umbrella. I thank the entire team for making my experience smooth and informative."

FAQs for batt, rolled or reflective insulation install or upgrade projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
