Whether you’ve lived in your Arkansas home for many years or just moved in, now is a great time to upgrade and update your home’s insulation. Without realizing it, your current insulation could easily have become old or damaged, losing its effectiveness. In fact, your home may have been inadequately insulated from its construction. But don’t worry! Regardless of the reason, investing in updated existing home insulation, Arkansas homeowners, is always a wise investment. Take the time now to evaluate and address any energy concerns, so you can save time and money later.

The Benefits of Retrofitting Your Home’s Insulation

Many homeowners focus on updating the focal points of their home instead of updating things behind the scenes. Upgrading your existing home insulation is the best way to enjoy everything your home has to offer, especially when you consider some of insulation’s many benefits: 

  • Lower Energy Bills. Say goodbye to ridiculously high energy bills. Updated insulation and air sealing allows your HVAC system to run more efficiently to give you a much-needed break on your energy bills each month.

  • Friend to the Environment. With updated insulation and air sealing, your conditioned air stays inside your home during the summer and your heated air keeps you cozy in winter, allowing your HVAC system to run less. This reduces your energy usage, the emissions from your home, and your environmental footprint. That’s a huge win for you and the Earth.

  • Soundproofing. Insulation acts as a sound barrier to help contain noises from both inside and out. This creates a more relaxing environment and a quieter home for you and your family.

Tailored Insulation Solutions for Every Home

Many homeowners wonder how to insulate an older home in Little Rock and the surrounding areas. At G&S Insulating we’ve got you covered. We offer a variety of existing home insulation options to help maximize the energy efficiency of your home. Our array of options include: 

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation is a one-of-a-kind insulation material that air seals and insulates in one easy step. Sprayed as a liquid, it quickly expands to fill every space of your retrofit project, creating an impenetrable air barrier and insulator. And since it sticks to everything it’s applied to, it’s ideal for small and hard-to-reach spaces. Spray foam is great for many areas of your home including attics, basements, crawl spaces, and home renovation projects that have open cavities such as open walls.

Fiberglass Insulation

Fiberglass insulation is a classic insulation created from glass fibers that’s a popular choice for owners of existing homes. Manufactured in different forms, including batts and loose-fill, it can be installed in many areas of your existing home including floors, walls, ceilings, and attics. We also offer a highly effective installation process known as the Blow-In Blanket System (BIBS®) that utilizes a special netting and blower to densely pack the loose-fill fiberglass into open wall cavities.

Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose insulation contains up to 85% recycled newspaper and is an excellent and environmentally friendly choice for insulating attics and walls in existing homes. It’s usually installed in one of two ways:

  • Dry cellulose that’s blown into open attics or dense packed into finished walls.
  • Stabilized (damp dry) cellulose that contains an adhesive to fill open wall cavities.
