Types of Attic Insulation

Fiberglass Insulation: Fiberglass insulation is one of the most popular and widely used types of attic insulation. It can come in batts (prefabricated sections) or as loose filling. This type of insulation works by trapping pockets of air and its effectiveness is measured by its R-value, with higher values indicating greater resistance to heat flow. Installation usually involves rolling out the batts or blowing in the loose fill, often between the attic's beams. Special care should be taken during installation due to the tiny glass shards in the material that can irritate the skin and lungs.
Cellulose Insulation: Cellulose insulation is a green, eco-friendly option. It's primarily composed of recycled paper products and treated with fire retardants. This type of insulation is typically installed using a blowing machine, which evenly distributes the material throughout the attic space. The dense nature of cellulose makes it an excellent choice for preventing air leakage and providing a high R-value.
Spray Foam Insulation: Spray foam insulation is an increasingly popular method that involves spraying polyurethane foam into the attic space. The foam fills cavities, crevices, and gaps as it expands, providing excellent air sealing. There are two types of spray foam insulation: open-cell and closed-cell, with the latter offering a higher R-value. The installation process requires specialized equipment and should only be handled by professionals due to the chemicals involved.
Mineral Wool Insulation: Mineral wool insulation, also known as rock wool or slag wool, is made from blast furnace slag, a waste product from the manufacture of steel. It is available in batts and as loose fill. This insulation type is fire-resistant and can block noise effectively. It is installed similarly to fiberglass but without the same risks of skin irritation.

HOW ATTIC INSULATION BENEFITS OUR CUSTOMERS

By Improving Energy Efficiency: One of the primary advantages of attic insulation is improved energy efficiency. Proper insulation prevents heat from escaping your home during the winter and keeps it cooler during the summer. This temperature regulation reduces reliance on heating and cooling systems, leading to lower energy consumption and significant savings on utility bills.
By Enhancing Comfort: Insulation maintains a consistent indoor temperature, making your home more comfortable year-round. By reducing drafts and cold spots in winter and overheated spaces in summer, insulation ensures a more pleasant living environment for you and your family.
By Preventing Moisture and Condensation: Effective attic insulation helps keep moisture out of your home. By preventing condensation from forming in your attic, you reduce the risk of mold and mildew growth, which can lead to structural damage and health problems.
By Increasing Home Value: Homes with proper insulation are highly sought after in the real estate market. The energy efficiency and comfort offered by such homes increase their value, potentially giving you a higher return on investment if you decide to sell your home.
By Reducing Noise: Insulation can also serve as a sound barrier, reducing the amount of noise that enters your home from outside. This results in a quieter, more peaceful living environment, particularly useful in high-traffic or noisy areas.
By Contributing to an Eco-Friendly Home: Good attic insulation reduces your carbon footprint by reducing the need for heating and cooling systems. Some insulation materials, like cellulose, are made from recycled materials, making them an even greener choice.

HOW LONG DOES ATTIC INSULATION LAST?

The lifespan of attic insulation varies depending on the insulation material used and the conditions within your home. Typically, when installed correctly and under normal conditions, most types of insulation can last for several decades.

Fiberglass and cellulose insulation, two of the most common materials, generally have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years. However, this can be shortened if the insulation is exposed to high humidity or frequent temperature fluctuations. In such cases, the insulation could deteriorate faster, losing its effectiveness in providing adequate thermal resistance.

Spray foam insulation is an exception, often touted for its longevity. It can last over 50 years if installed correctly without losing its insulating properties. This type of insulation is also resistant to moisture and mold, contributing to its long lifespan. However, it’s essential to remember that even the highest quality insulation needs regular checks for potential damage and effectiveness. Regardless of your chosen insulation type, remember to have it inspected periodically by a professional to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

SIGNS THAT YOUR ATTIC INSULATION LEVELS NEED TO BE TOPPED OFF OR REPLACED

High Energy Bills: If your energy bills are inexplicably high, it could be a sign that your insulation is not performing as efficiently as it should be. Inadequate insulation allows heat to escape during winter and seep in during summer, forcing your heating and cooling systems to work harder.
Uneven Temperatures in Rooms: Temperature inconsistencies throughout your home often indicate insufficient insulation. If some rooms are noticeably colder in winter or warmer in summer compared to others, your attic insulation may need to be topped off.
Cold Walls, Ceilings, and Floors: During winter, the walls, ceilings, and floors of your home should feel warm and dry. If they're cold or damp to the touch, it's likely a sign of inadequate insulation.
Icicles and Ice Dams in Winter: While icicles may seem like an everyday winter occurrence, they can be a sign of poor attic insulation. Heat escaping through the roof melts the snow, which then freezes into icicles or ice dams. These can cause damage to your home's structure and roof.
Pest Infestations: If you notice increased pest activity in your home, it could be due to deteriorating insulation. Rodents and bugs can burrow into old insulation, creating a cozy home. If you see signs of infestation, it's time to replace your insulation.
Wet or Damp Insulation: Insulation works best when it's dry. If you notice your insulation is wet or damp, this not only means it's not effectively insulating your home, but it could also be a sign of a more significant issue like a roof leak.
Age of the Insulation: Insulation doesn't last forever. If your insulation is decades old, it may not be as effective as it once was and likely needs replacing.

Keep your attic properly insulated as the years pass by calling Style Exteriors at (847) 865-3069 or contacting us online for insulation inspections, installations, and more in Illinois & Southern Wisconsin and the surrounding areas!

Style Exteriors replaced our roof, gutters and skylights this summer and did a superb job. What really impressed me is that they did what they said they would do when they said they would do it. Good communication when there were weather or supply issues and they strived to make everything right even when issues popped up. Just professional and accountable. They were not the cheapest nor most expensive quote we received but they delivered quality service at a fair price. Lou and his crew took pride in their work. Get an estimate from these guys and meet them in person and the choice for this big ticket item will be obvious.

Their rep, Justin was Awsome to deal with. Justin laid out everything from A to Z. Justin’s response time was Awsome, and very easy to get a hold of. Top notch company.

Lou & crew replaced the corners of my mother's gutters, and put BIG downspouts where original small 1955 ones had become non-functional. Lou assessed the situation creatively and the solution is awesome. He also recommended gutter shields, as the house is surrounded by huge old oak trees. We are grateful for the kind and professional service and the beautiful work, and will recommend Style Exteriors to everyone!

BJ and Gary from Style Exteriors are the best of the best. These two men took the time to help an old man with a siding issue even though it was a very small problem. If you need siding work, I strongly recommend Style Exteriors.

From start to finish, I was impressed with Style Exteriors' quality, customer service and workmanship. Justin was a great communicator and sounding board. He consulted on color, material, warranty and pricing. We got a quality roof for a great price and with excellent support. I will use this company again and recommend to family and friends.

The true sign of a company's value and integrity is how they act after they already have your money. We had our roof replaced 5 years ago and due to some wind damage had a leak. Brad was very communicative all along the way and made sure his team came out in a timely manner to diagnose and repair the issue. I highly recommend these guys. They stand by their work.

Style Exteriors tore off and replaced all of our vinyl siding and wrapped our windows with white aluminum. The estimate was fair and included everything we needed. Their workers did a wonderful job. Our house looks like new. We have had many compliments on how great it looks now. They were very easy to work with as far as the scheduling. Eric Bergland was in charge of the job and made sure we were happy with the work. We did have a couple of concerns and he immediately took care of them. He was at our house almost all day making sure things were done right. Jose and his crew were awesome as far as the work and clean up. Before it was white, Now it’s a beautiful dark blue. We would definitely use Style Exteriors again in the future. Thanks Style, Ken and Susanne

After being ghosted by 2 other roofing contractors, Style Exteriors came through. They brought samples out to my house quickly, so that I could match shingles to my brick easier. They confirmed information the skylight company rep told me about my roof that I did not believe, was indeed incorrect. Their quote for the job was the best of the several I had. Brad was always responsive to my questions - dealing with roofing damage caused by a leaking skylight installed by a different company. The crew was on time and polite. When the skylight company rep showed up and caused some issues, Style Exteriors was quick to respond and assure me there would be no roofing problems. They installed additional vents in the roof as I apparently did not have enough. The crew set up and tore down neatly and let me know when they were leaving. They answered any questions I had as they were shingling. VERY pleased with Style Exteriors!

We hired style exteriors to replace our cedar shake roof with a brava synthetic roof and replacement gutters. From start to finish we couldn’t be happier with the results from the entire team! Jeremey is extremely knowledgeable and professional and a true master at his craft. His installation team worked extremely hard and efficient to finish this complicated roof in a great manner. They worked 14 hours a day from sunrise to sunset, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. This could be the hardest job on the planet ripping off a roof in direct sunlight all day with bees everywhere! The whole team was very courteous, kind, and respectful. They kept the house super clean and took extra precautions to make sure they protected our home during the job. I’m so glad we hired them because their attention to detail is fantastic, and we thrilled with the results. I would highly recommend this company! Here are some photos of the team at work!

Tim Carden of Style Exteriors came and reviewed our roof and gutters for replacement. He climbed up on the roof and saw our temorary repair of a hole at te top of the roof. His resonable contract was sent the next day. Our choice of shingle color and gutter color was easy with his samples shown to us. His group started the roofing job on one day and finished it the same day. A Style Extrerior manager was on site during the day. The 12 man team was very organized, friendly, protected our gardens, cleaned up everything perfectly and used a magnet to capture loose nails. The gutter change was done on a separate day. That team also was done their instillation of wider gutters and downspouts in a day. They, too did a great job in clean up.We are THRILLED with Style Exteriors.We HIGHLY recommend Style Exteriors

I am more than pleased with the level of service I received from Style Exterior. Tim Carden (the owner) gave me an estimate for roof replacement. Tim and his team very responsive to any queries I had. New roof installation was finished in one day. The job site was throughly cleaned after installation. Tim also included gutter guard installation at no additional cost (I bought my own gutter guards). He also repaired some rotten wood part of the facia at no additional cost.I am also happy that Style Exterior accepts credit card for payment (helps is earning miles).Thank you Style Exterior!!!
