Insulation Products

Attic-

A basic rule of thumb is that if you can see the ceiling joists in your attic, you do not have enough insulation. We recommend having a trained professional from Wallace Drywall and Insulation provide a risk FREE assessment on how much and what type of insulation should be used.

Attics can be difficult to insulate properly because there many intricacies in an attic such as air leaks, required ventilation, and possible animal intrusions. Maneuvering around these obstructions can be difficult and even dangerous which is why the job should be completed by a certified professional installer.

Walls-

The benefits of properly insulated walls in your home or business can be immense. Well insulated walls will provide more consistent temperatures throughout, lower energy costs, and reduce outside noise; all of which provide for more comfort and better performance over the long term. In some cases it may be quite difficult to determine how well insulated your walls are and even more difficult to install wall insulation.

That's why it is important to have a  Wallace Drywall and Insulation trained and certified professional come to your home or business and perform a FREE assessment. We will be able to determine your current insulation levels, and recommend the steps and procedures to make your home or office more energy efficient.

Basements and Crawl Spaces -

At Wallace Drywall and Insulation we’re sure to not make the costly mistake of overlooking the insulation and weatherization in the lowest levels of your home or establishment. These are areas that we may not often think of, if we do not use them frequently. If your basement and crawl spaces areas are not adequately weatherized or insulated, problems such as frozen pipes, cold floors, moisture control, and soil gas intrusion may impact your home's performance and could cause extensive damage over a period of time.

When evaluating your insulation needs, we will look closely at your crawl spaces as well. Depending on your location, your crawl spaces may or may not be ventilated, but each type of design could require different insulation and weatherization techniques. Let our trained and certified professionals determine how to best weatherize your basement or crawl space area before you experience another winter of cold floors, inefficient pipes and wasted energy resources.


Air Sealing -

At Wallace Drywall and Insulation, we understand that homes need to breathe and poor attic ventilation is important to your home. Good air flow is essential to a healthy home, but if we don't control where and how a home breathes, a significant amount of a home's energy will be lost. We’ll advise you as to the benefits of keeping the attic at the proper temperature year round.

During the winter it is best to keep the attic cooler so that the ice and snow on the roof does not melt, then re-freeze and cause problems or damage to the gutters and roof systems. In the summer, you’ll discover that it’s best to make sure that air can flow freely into and out of the attic so that the air inside the attic stays cooler.

The key to controlling where and how a home breathes is by properly ventilating and air sealing your attic. To air seal an attic, various products may be utilized. Be sure to ask your Wallace Drywall and Insulation representative for more information on proper air sealing techniques for your attic ventilation.
