In Portland, the best types of insulation include fiberglass, cellulose, and spray foam. Fiberglass and cellulose are cost-effective and provide good thermal resistance. Spray foam offers superior air sealing and higher R-values, making it ideal for reducing energy costs in the variable Pacific NW climate.

Signs that your home may need more insulation include uneven temperatures between rooms, high energy bills, drafts, and walls that are cold to the touch. You might also notice ice dams forming on your roof during winter.

The cost of insulating a home in Portland varies based on the size of the home, the type of insulation used, and the areas being insulated. On average, homeowners might spend between $1,500 and $4,500 for insulation projects that improve home comfort and lower energy costs. Attic insulation tends to be less expensive than wall or crawl space insulation.
Important to note, there are often rebates and tax incentives — including the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (Inflation Reduction Act) that can save up to $1,200 each year on professionally-installed insulation materials — that help lower your total cost. As part of our service, we do all we can to help you capture the savings for which you are eligible.
Yes, proper insulation can significantly reduce energy bills by improving your home’s energy efficiency. Insulation keeps warm air inside during the winter and cool air inside during the summer, reducing the need for heating and cooling. Homeowners often see a noticeable reduction in their utility bills after upgrading insulation.
The R-value measures an insulation material’s resistance to heat flow; the higher the R-value, the better the insulation’s effectiveness. In Portland, recommended R-values are R-38 to R-60 for attics, R-13 to R-23 for walls, and at least R-30 for floors. Choosing insulation with the appropriate R-value ensures optimal energy efficiency and comfort.
Insulation can last for decades, but its effectiveness can diminish over time due to factors like moisture, pests, and settling. Fiberglass and cellulose insulation typically last 20-30 years, while spray foam can last much longer. It’s recommended to check insulation every 15-20 years or if you notice signs of deterioration, such as increased energy bills or drafts.

What They Say About Us
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.
I had HomeRx Insulation add blown in insulation in the garage attic after a water pipe burst caused ceiling drywall and insulation damage. Getting an estimate was easy and free. The estimator was nice and noted all the places I wanted covered. After the garage repairs were done...They put baffles in the soffit vent areas, filled the soffit areas with insulation and wrapped the water pipe so it won't burst again. They needed to drill holes in the garage attic floor to get insulation in certain areas and seamlessly plugged those holes afterwards. They even wrapped a couple ducts in the attic that had missing and/or inadequate insulation (part of the estimate but not part of the damage, not a necessity...but hey...they did it so I'm happy). The installers were nice and made sure they showed me their work. I was impressed with the quality of work. I think they went above and beyond in their work and pleased with the outcome. If I ever need more insulation work in the future...I will certainly be calling HomeRx.
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!
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.
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.
