How does insulation work in New York City?
Insulation in New York City follows 4 clear steps, from energy assessment to a final walkthrough. A vetted local pro manages the schedule, keeps the site clean, and does not consider the job done until you are satisfied.
Energy assessment
We perform a blower-door test and thermal scan to identify air leaks and insulation gaps that account for your home's heat loss and gain.
Air sealing
Penetrations around pipes, wires, and framing are sealed with spray foam or caulk before any insulation is added. Air sealing provides most of the energy benefit.
Insulation installation
Blown-in, spray foam, or batt insulation is installed to target R-values per climate zone, with extra attention to attic bypasses.
Verification
Final insulation depth and coverage are measured and documented; a post-project blower-door test confirms the improvement.

Insulation in New York City: questions answered.
How much does insulation cost in New York City?
In New York City, insulation typically runs based on scope and materials. Pro House Maintenance gives every New York City homeowner a free, fixed-price written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
What R-value do I need in my attic?
The Department of Energy recommends R-38 to R-60 for attics in most U.S. climate zones, more in colder northern regions, less in the deep South. Most older homes have R-11 to R-19 and are significantly under-insulated. We assess your current level and recommend the right target for your climate.
Is spray foam better than blown-in insulation?
Spray foam provides both air sealing and insulation in one application, making it superior for rim joists and irregular cavities. Blown-in cellulose or fiberglass is more cost-effective for large flat attic areas. We often use both in the same project to optimize performance and cost.
What homeowners say about insulation.
"They air-sealed before insulating, so the drafts are gone along with the cold spots."
"The insulation work has noticeably cut our heating bills and the upstairs finally holds temperature."
"Spray foam in the rim joists made our basement noticeably warmer."
