Professional Wall Insulation Solutions
There are multiple options when it comes to insulating walls. Depending on your home’s construction and its existing insulation types, we can use some or all of them for upgrades. For example, dense-pack insulation is fire-resistant, won’t settle over time, and helps deaden sound, too. Blown-in insulation is similar, but doesn’t require major disruption to your home’s finished walls or its attic. And if you’re insulating walls as part of a larger remodeling project, we can use open-wall insulation to make the most of the access.
No matter what kind of home insulation upgrades you need, the process should always start with a home energy audit. That helps us identify weak spots in your home’s air envelope so we can address them fully. That includes air sealing as appropriate both before and during installation. Doing so increases the effect of your insulation upgrades as part of your whole-home efficiency strategy.
- Enhanced comfort
- Reduced energy bills
- Less HVAC system wear-and-tear

- Reduced noise
Dense-Pack Insulation

Frequently Asked Questions
As the local expert in energy efficiency upgrades, we have plenty of knowledge to share. Here are some frequently asked questions about insulation, along with their answers.
How do I know if my walls need insulation?
If your energy bills are higher than you expect and your home suffers from temperature fluctuations, you may need insulation. Our experts can perform a home insulation evaluation to identify areas in need of improvement. Then, we can recommend the right insulation upgrade approach.
Can insulation be added without removing drywall?
We specialize in insulating walls without removing drywall. Typically, blown-in insulation is the best option in those cases. To install it, we cut small access openings, blow the insulation into the finished walls, and then repair the openings.
What type of insulation is best for walls?
There’s no one-size-fits-all installation type for your home’s walls. During an upgrade, we will recommend the insulation solution that best fits your needs and budget. For example, if you’re already opening walls for a remodeling project, we may use traditional batt insulation. Otherwise, we may opt for a blown-in solution or foam insulation, if you’re upgrading a crawl space.
Does wall insulation help reduce energy bills?
Yes, insulation upgrades help reduce energy bills. According to the Department of Energy, the average home can save 15% on heating and cooling costs by adding insulation. Your total savings, however, will depend on the nature and extent of your upgrades.
Is Dolphin a safe type of insulation?
Dolphin insulation is completely safe for use in your home’s walls. It’s highly effective at reducing heat transmission and reducing flammability. It also works well as an augmentation to your air sealing efforts.
