Having adequate insulation in your attic can help your Dallas home maintain a more comfortable temperature throughout the year and help reduce your energy costs.

The insulation in your attic should be at least 12 inches deep, this is to ensure that the home is adequately insulated and can help lower energy bills. In Dallas, this is the requirement for attics to meet the energy code for climate zones 2B and 3A, which requires that the insulation in attics must meet the following R-value requirements: R-30 for ceilings, R-19 for walls, and R-13 for floors.
Prepare the Attic Space: Remove any stored items, debris, and insulation. Remove any animal droppings.
Calculate Insulation Needs: Measure the attic space and calculate how much insulation you need.
Install Vapor Barrier: Install a vapor barrier on the attic floor to help prevent moisture and condensation.
Install the Insulation: Install the insulation in the proper R-value. Make sure to fill all gaps and crevices.
Seal Air Leaks: Check for and seal any air leaks around windows, doors, and other openings.
Install Attic Ventilation: Install proper attic ventilation to help reduce moisture and condensation.
Final Check: Check for any remaining air leaks, insulation gaps, and other issues.

Types of Insulation We Carry
Fiberglass Insulation – Fiberglass insulation is one of the most popular forms of attic insulation. It is made from recycled glass that is spun into fibers and comes in batts or loose fill.
Cellulose Insulation – Cellulose insulation is made from recycled paper, such as newsprint, that has been treated with fire retardants. It is lightweight and easy to install.
Mineral Wool Insulation – Mineral wool insulation is made from either natural or synthetic rock, such as basalt and slag, that is melted and spun into fibers. It is also fire-resistant and provides a good level of insulation.
Spray Foam Insulation – Spray foam insulation is a spray-applied solution that expands and hardens to form a continuous air barrier. It is very effective in areas like attics where air leakage is an issue.
Radiant Barrier Insulation – Radiant barrier insulation is a reflective material that is installed in the attic to reduce the amount of heat that is transferred from the roof to the rest of the house. It is most effective in hot climates.
