How to Choose the Best Insulation Contractor

March 30, 2022

Your home is likely your biggest financial investment, and it’s important to protect it.  If you’ve decided to protect your home with insulation, you’re already off to a great start.  But how do you choose the best insulation contractor for your home?  How do you know that you can trust them and your investment will be well spent?

Here are some tips to consider when choosing the right insulation contractor for your home:

Experience

Ask potential contractors what experience they have specifically in insulation.  Nearly any handy person can rent insulation equipment, but truly understanding the science behind insulation and air sealing makes all the difference in the quality of the work to be performed.

Reputation

What are other people saying about them?  Double check the reviews of past customers across various platforms like Google, Better Business Bureau, HomeAdvisor, Yelp, Facebook, Thumbtack, etc.  If others had a pleasant experience, it is likely that you will too.

Insurance

You may be surprised to find that many individuals working in the construction field do not carry the types of insurance you would want them to have if they were doing work in your home.  Ideally nothing would go wrong in your project, but in case anything did, it is wise to ensure the correct coverage is there to protect you and your home.  Ask for a copy of their Certificate of Insurance (COI) and validate it is up to date for auto, liability, and worker’s comp. 

Respect and Customer Service

How a potential contractor treats you from day 1 is a tell-tale sign of how they will perform moving forward with your project. Do they communicate? Did they respect your home? Did they clean up any insulation that fell from the attic? Did they explain your different options in terms of insulation locations, material choices, and R-Value options?
