When was the last time you took a look at your home’s attic?

If you’re like most homeowners, it’s probably been a while.  Although your attic is an often overlooked part of the home, it plays a big role in your energy efficiency and in your home energy bill.  With families looking for ways to save and keep their homes warm through the holiday season, it’s time to rethink your attic insulation.

More than 80% of homes have little or no insulation, according to the Department of Energy.  So how do you know if our home has enough?

As a general rule of thumb, if you can see floor joists, this is a sign that you probably need more attic insulation.  If you’re not sure, measure to see how deep the insulation in your attic goes.

Customer Reviews

Work Was Done Well
"I got several estimates from several providers. The pricing seemed just ok with those other providers but something seemed off. Good Life came in and made sure that I was getting the correct amount of insulation (where the other service providers had under estimated) and helped me to get into a loan through the utility company for the cost of the insulation. Good life is a qualifying contractor for this and it saved me a lot of out of pocket expense. They came in and did what they had to do. They were professional and made sure the work was done well."

Excellent
"Excellent . The Estimator showed up 2 minutes before the appointed time & after a quick 20-minute survey of the exterior of the house, was able to give me a written estimate. The rest of the job was conducted in similar fashion. The installation crew showed up on time, were competant & courteous & completed job on time. When completed, I was asked to walk the job to make sure the cleanup was acceptable. Not enough "cold" time has gone by for me to comment on the reduction in heating costs but as for the work, this outfit gets my unqualified recommendation."
