Blown in insulation
 

Looking for reliable contractor to blow insulation above garage and lanai. Any help is appreciated.

Are you the same sparky4840 who answered a post with " WHO CARES " as your reply? :boom:

Batting is a Much Better Roof Insulator Than Blown-In
 

I had blown in insulation in another house, never again ! The fibers are loose, and if you have to move around up there you will be surrounded with a cloud of dust and fibers .

The Solar Guys
 

Give us a call and we would be happy to give you a quote. We do both blown-in and radiant barrier. 866-669-5259

Wrong again..... you left out won't help him!

We used Munns AC, very clean and reasonable.

I completely disagree with this statement that batts are better than blown insulation. In areas where homes are “stick framed” the ceiling joists are a minimum 2x6 and usually 2x8 so there is an adequate pocket for thick insulation. Here these truss roofs are mostly 2x4 bottom cord . If you have been in your attic over the garage you will see multiple wires stapled to the top of that 2x4. Blown insulation doesn’t move if installed properly with baffles at the outside walls to keep the insulation from going into the soffit vents. Batts should be installed before flooring an area however

Solar Guys
 

Solar Guys did blown insulation in our garage ceiling. Made noticeable difference in temperature in garage. They just had a flash sale. Maybe you can get in on that pricing.

I too have blown in insulation... On top of the regular insulation...

My guess is the Solar Guys did it when they put in the solar tubes (ours is a re-sale)...

And yes, I'm quite surprised that the garage is not really hot (like I've read others complain about) in the Summer. That said, our garage faces North, so that helps, as well...

We used Timberwood Properties (Wade Beamon - 352-661-0159). They do the insulation for new building in TV. We got a high R-rated blown insulation and a good price. He said they are now doing a higher R-rating in the newer areas.

Solar guys have done a couple of my villages homes for me, great job both times. Both my homes started out with blown in I just had them double it. Made a difference.

INAULCO out of Ocala. Used them on two homes. Very professional and did a good job at a fair price. 352-307-9060

Price
 

So far nobody has mentioned what a good price might be. Soooo what's an approximate good price for a two car with golf cart garage.

This may be removed, but I have to post. Years ago, when I lived in Connecticut, there was a 1/4 page ad in our newspaper that read.

Blowing Insulation Installers

Hahahahahaha

Don't forget the Baffles
 

We used Munns. Just make sure they install the baffles so the soffits stay open for air flow. Yes doing the space over the garage made a BIG difference both seasons

Batting is Superior to Blown-in Insulation
 

Dr. Energy with Munn's - would recommend

That why u add additional layers 19 and covers 1 1/2” gap

Absolutely false information

Awesome. Gotta like it. Did you apply for the position?:bigbow:

Solar guys did our home. Ignore the negative congrats moments about blown in insulation. Those comments are incorrect. I’ve had blown in insulation in many homes and have never had a problem.
