Comfort from the Ground Up: Crawl Space Insulation.

Mother Reading Story To Children In Their Bedroom Indoor Air Quality, Crawl Space Insulation

Many older homes have crawl spaces that need quality insulation and ventilation to keep out the moisture.

A poorly insulated crawl space creates problems for the rest of your home. It makes it hard to keep the upper floors warm in the winter. It can also contribute to high humidity levels in the summer.

Just like we recommend insulating your attic space, our team at HomeRx encourages homeowners to insulate and air seal their crawl space. The two go hand-in-hand toward creating a welcoming, energy-efficient environment for you and your loved ones.

HomeRx is a trusted name for providing quality residential insulation services. We offer retrofit insulation to upgrade the comfort of your existing home. Call us today for more information.

Insulating your Crawl Space

A well-insulated crawl space prevents moisture, radon, and other irritants from entering your home. You’ll first want to prep the crawl space by sealing air leaks. That includes holes around drain lines, plenums for ductwork, and around electrical wiring and plumbing.

Our professionals at HomeRx can help you choose the right type of insulation and the best R-value for your location. Remember, the higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power.

Types of Insulation

What kind of crawl space insulation is best?

Spray foam is always a preferred option—but also your most expensive choice. cellulose and fiberglass also make great options. Be sure to insulate all the ductwork in the crawl space.

Batt Insulation

Fiberglass batts provide quality insulation at a competitive price. Properly installed, it’s the most affordable way to effectively insulate a home. This insulation type is a great option for just about anywhere—exterior walls, floors, ceilings, attics, basements, and other areas of your home. Homeowners love fiberglass because it is cost effective, easy to use, and poses no fire threat. Plus, it is a terrific thermal insulator.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation reduces air leakage and gives maximum comfort to your home. With mechanical ventilation, it is an effective moisture management strategy too.

Spray foam has an advantage over other forms of insulation because it can fill tight crevices. It is the strongest option for maintaining indoor temperature. Plus, homes insulated with spray foam enjoy better protection against mold and mildew. It also creates a natural sound barrier so you can enjoy your quiet time.

Benefits include:

  • Thermal resistance — enjoy lower heating and cooling costs. Spray foam fills gaps and voids to create a barrier that prevents energy loss. It also provides a superior R-value (resistance to heat flow / insulating power).
  • Moisture barrier — controls moisture to help prevent mold, mildew, and bacterial growth. Plus, it keeps out dust and other pollutants to maintain a healthy indoor air quality (IAQ).
  • Air barrier — creates a seamless insulated barrier to minimize air leakage and reduce outside noises.

Advantages of Crawl Space Insulation

It starts with comfort. Insulating the crawl space and other areas of your home seals in the warm air during the winter and keeps out the muggy weather in the summer!

Do you live in an older home? Chances are, it is under-insulated. A home energy audit will help determine which parts of your home could use added protection.

Some other advantages to air sealing and insulating your crawl space include:

  • Reduce your monthly utility bills
  • Maintain a more comfortable home
  • Improve your indoor air quality
  • Keep a pest-free crawl space
  • Prevent your furnace and air conditioner from overworking

Most of all, a well-insulated crawl space creates the foundation for a healthy home. Let’s improve your crawl space today.

HomeRX cleaned all the junk out of the crawl space of my new home, installed a vapor barrier and insulation. Excellent work and fantastic communication. Would hire again.

Nick Perkins August 23, 2024

Was happy with the insulation install, and price was a good value. They even put down new black plastic water barrier in my crawlspace even though it wasn’t in the quote which was a nice extra and made everything much cleaner.

Nick Scaief August 23, 2024

After I learned of tax rebates and credits for energy, I decided to look into adding insulation for my 1990 home. Nelsin from HomeRx performed an in-depth estimate by actually entering the attics (yes, 2 separate spaces) and the crawl space to obtain measurements. The other firm that gave me an estimate just peeked inside but never bothered to enter the spaces. I hired HomeRx and am so pleased with their work! Both the attics as well as the crawl space were completed by 2 crews in about 8 hours. These guys were such hard workers and took all the precautions to protect my floors and furnishings. The best part? They did a SUPER cleanup job and hauled away all the old junk and plastic liner from the crawlspace. I hope I don't need insulation work again but if I do, this company definitely gets my business.

HomeRX provided excellent service for our home. They came out to redo our crawl space. The guys were very professional and polite. I would highly recommend them!

Christine Sanders March 8, 2024

HomeRx completed an attic insulation, air sealing, duct sealing and crawlspace insulation project for us. Their communication was timely and professional. The estimator was very knowledgeable about our project needs and explained the work thoroughly, They were easy to schedule with, assisted us with the energy NW credits and the crew did good work. They were also competitively priced and we feel we got a good value. Would highly recommend for any insulation or air sealing projects.

Travis Berge March 8, 2024

Super happy with the work from Maxwell and the crew. Fair quote *and* they handled all of the energy credits (so we don’t have to wait for a rebate check). They kept the space tidy, and even spiffed up the crawlspace hatch door. Would definitely hire again for another project.

Erica Warren March 7, 2024

The company quoted a very reasonable price to replace crawl space insulation. I asked them to confirm their numbers to make sure, which they did. Installation was professional and efficient. The crew masked off access from the front door to the crawl space, removed the old material and installed the new vapor barrier, taped the seams and installed new insulation, all in one day. For quality work at a very competitive price, these are the folks you want to hire.

Keith Ehrensing February 26, 2024

This company epitomizes the term professional. From the first meeting with Max, the young man that provided the quote, to the supervisor that was the last to check out the finished job, everything was done as agreed and when promised. Everyone was quick to respond when we had questions and maintained open communication during the project. We had our crawl space completely cleaned and redone with spray foam. They also sealed everything so no critters can get in and wrapped all the ductwork and water pipes. We highly recommend them.
