spray_foam_1Home insulation is one of the best ways to improve the energy efficiency of your home – just in time for Earth Day.  However, there are several different types of home insulation.  Depending on your home’s needs and your budget, one type of insulation might be more beneficial for you.  We would like to help you to better understand the differences between spray foam insulation and fiberglass insulation.

Spray Foam Insulation

Polyurethane Spray Foam Insulation provides the best insulating performance possible.  It fills all of the spaces in your attic, basement, crawl spaces, and walls.  It seals your home and creates a healthier living environment.  Once applied, spray foam insulation foms a virtually airtight thermal envelope.

Fiberglass Insulation

Fiberglass insulation is used in traditional batting.  However, this batting is an inefficient way to insulate your home.  Batting leaves openings that allow for air leakage, making your home less energy-efficient.  As an alternative, we offer blown in fiberglass insulation that helps protect your home by filling in all of the nooks and crannies.

Learn more about the types of insulation available to you on our website or contact one of our professional technicians by calling 203-297-6337.  We can help you determine the type of insulation that will be best for your home .

Customer Reviews

Good Experience
"We used Good Life and had a good experience. We did the entire house Tripolymer foam in between the exterior framing. Our energy bills reduced considerably and the noise barrier is great."

-Tracy B Ridgefield, CT

Could Not Be Beat
"I was impressed from the start with Tom the sales rep. He took detailed measurements to accurately determine the volume of foam necessary for the job. And his quote detailed the full scope of work. Other estimates were higher and did not include the site prep to protect my windows and floor. I would have had to do that myself! I got three other estimates and Good Life Energy Savers just could not be beat. When I decided to change the application from the interior of my cathedral ceiling to the exterior on my roof in order to preserve my tongue & groove ceiling Mike project mgr. came out and reassured me that they could execute this without a problem. This was a huge relief as I had been trying to solve the problem of heat loss for many years. Juan and David performed outstandingly! They were conscience during the installation and the clean up afterward.They literally went above and beyond! The room is now easily holding a consistent temperature and I could not be happier. I should have done this years ago!"
