When To Retrofit Your Sacramento Home With Insulation
It can be difficult for a homeowner to know whether your insulation is in good condition or warrants a full replacement. You might have obvious signs, like draftiness or high energy bills even with modern HVAC, but only a professional insulation contractor can tell you for sure.
You should look to re-insulate your home when:
Your insulation is too old: Insulation made from fiberglass, cellulose and mineral wool can degrade after 15 years.
Your insulation is damaged: Damaged insulation will need replacing, especially if it’s water damage (to prevent mold and loss of insulating properties).
You don’t have enough insulation: Your insulation might not be adequate for your needs. You might be able to add insulation on top of it, but replacing it with materials with denser R-values may be necessary.
Your insulation is poor quality or poorly installed: Not all insulation is made or installed to proper standards. If you have sufficient insulation, but it’s not high-quality, it can leave gaps and isn’t an adequate barrier for your home.
Several factors can go into the decision to invest in retrofit insulation. That’s why it’s best to request an inspection from Gold Star Insulation. After our inspection, we can make new insulation recommendations.

New Insulation Options for Your Sacramento Home
The Gold Star Insulation team adds energy efficiency, comfort and value to homes with re-insulation in Sacramento.
We specialize in:
Fiberglass insulation (batts & blown-in): Used to insulate homes for decades, fiberglass is available as loose-fill or batts. It’s made of tiny glass fibers and is often installed in attics but can also be used in walls and crawl spaces.
Cellulose insulation (blown-in): Cellulose is environmentally friendly — it consists of up to 85% recycled material and takes less energy to make than other materials — and can be installed in any area of a home.
Spray foam insulation: Typically made of polyurethane, spray foam is applied wet and expands into thick foam. Spray foam insulation can be installed in crevices and hard-to-reach areas and can help reduce air infiltration.
Rigid board insulation: Rigid board or rigid foam insulation can be made of polystyrene, polyisocyanurate or polyurethane and is typically installed in new homes.
Radiant barrier insulation: Radiant barrier is a type of reflective insulation material typically installed in attics (under the roof) to help reduce cooling costs by reflecting radiant heat.
Recycled denim insulation: Thermally efficient and environmentally friendly, recycled denim insulation is a good solution for homeowners who want to stay green while insulating their homes.
