Types of Home Insulation

We have four types of insulation material that we use to do the job just right.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass is a popular budget-friendly insulation material made from recycled glass or sand. This lightweight insulation material is perfect for attics.

Cellulose

Utilizing recycled post-consumer paper, which is packed tightly and fiberized, your airflow will improve thanks to cellulose insulation.

Rock Wool

Molten materials are taken, and through a process of spinning or drawing fibers from the molten material, rock wool is created. This is an excellent choice for sub-floor insulation.

This fairly new insulation material is ready to dominate the insulation scene! Made from renewable, organic materials, EcoBatt combines sand, post-consumer recycled glass, and ECOSE technology to bring an insulation material of the future.

Our Exclusive Pest Guard Insulation

Many insulation contractor will claim to have “pest control insulation”; but do they? Did you know that most cellulose attic insulation products already contain a borate blend to make it fire-proof? This alone does not meet our standards with regards to controlling unwanted pests in your attic such as roaches, ants and silverfish. Our exclusive Pest Guard Insulation service is a cellulose product that we then treat with a borate to boost the level of effectiveness. Although this product will not affect wildlife, it will upon contact help control most insects in your attic. These insects, if left untreated, can carry disease, damage wallpaper and contaminate your kitchen.

Universal Pest & Termite and Universal Insulation Doctor understand unwanted pests in your home can affect the health of your family and home including pets. We recommends R-49 in your attic.

Chesapeake’s summers can push attic temperatures over 140°F, making upper floors uncomfortably hot and driving up energy bills. The key to beating this heat is proper attic insulation with adequate R-value coverage. Professional blown-in cellulose or fiberglass insulation creates a thermal barrier that prevents hot air from radiating into your living spaces.

Our Pest Guard Insulation service combines effective cooling protection with pest control benefits, ensuring your family stays comfortable year-round.

Timing your insulation installation properly can maximize comfort and savings while minimizing disruption to your daily routine. Chesapeake’s climate offers optimal installation windows during mild weather periods, typically spring and fall, when attic conditions are most manageable for thorough work. However, emergency installations may be necessary if you’re experiencing high energy bills, uncomfortable room temperatures, or pest problems. Pre-summer installations are particularly beneficial for managing the intense heat that builds up in local attics.

Chesapeake’s high humidity, temperature swings, and proximity to water create unique challenges that can cause insulation to fail faster than in drier climates. Moisture buildup and salt air exposure degrade certain materials, leading to reduced energy efficiency and comfort issues.

Cold spots and drafts typically indicate insulation gaps or settling in your attic and walls. These voids let conditioned air escape and outdoor air seep in, creating uncomfortable temperature differences. Find out how to fix drafty rooms in our Chesapeake home comfort solutions guide.
