Our Professional Insulation Services
Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam is the gold standard for homeowners seeking a complete air seal. Unlike traditional materials, spray foam expands to fill every nook and cranny, eliminating drafts and significantly reducing your monthly energy bills. It acts as both an insulator and an air barrier, making it perfect for the varied temperatures we experience in Boulder. By choosing spray foam, you are investing in a high-performance material that lasts for decades without sagging or settling.
Fiberglass Insulation
Fiberglass remains a popular choice for its versatility and cost-effectiveness. We use high-quality fiberglass batts and rolls that provide excellent thermal resistance. It is naturally fire-resistant and helps dampen sound between rooms, adding an extra layer of peace and quiet to your living space. Our team ensures a precise fit, which is critical for preventing the heat bypass that occurs with poorly installed materials.
Batt Insulation
Ideal for new construction or accessible crawl spaces, batt insulation offers a straightforward way to keep your home’s temperature stable. We specialize in installing these pre-cut panels with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring there are no gaps or compressions. This meticulous approach ensures your walls, floors, and ceilings maintain a consistent R-value year-round.
Blown-in Insulation
If your home has irregular spaces or existing walls that need an upgrade without a full tear-out, blown-in insulation is the answer. Using specialized equipment, we blow cellulose or fiberglass particles into wall cavities and attics. This method provides a dense, seamless blanket of protection that is particularly effective at stopping heat transfer in older Boulder homes.
Attic Insulation
Your attic is the primary culprit for energy loss. In the winter, heat rises and escapes through an under-insulated roof; in the summer, the sun bakes your attic, forcing your AC to work overtime. Our attic insulation services focus on creating a robust thermal cap. We address air leaks, baffle installation for ventilation, and top off your insulation levels to meet or exceed modern energy codes.

Expert Answers (FAQ)
What is the best type of insulation for Boulder homes?
While it depends on the specific area of your home, spray foam is often recommended for its superior air-sealing capabilities, which is vital for the Colorado climate. However, blown-in cellulose is excellent for attics.
How much can I save on energy bills with new insulation?
Most homeowners see a reduction of 15% to 20% on their heating and cooling costs after upgrading their insulation and sealing air leaks. In some older homes, the savings can be even higher.
How long does the installation process take?
A typical attic or crawl space project can be completed in a single day. Larger, whole-home spray foam projects may take two to three days depending on the square footage and accessibility.
Is spray foam insulation safe for my family?
Yes, once the product has fully cured (typically within 24 hours), it is completely inert and safe. We follow all industry safety standards, including proper ventilation during the application process.
Does Extra Care Insulation provide free estimates?
Absolutely. We provide comprehensive on-site evaluations and free quotes to help you understand the needs of your home without any upfront cost.
