FAQ
A closed-cell insulation product can cost roughly $1.00 to $1.50 per board foot. These costs should be regarded as a guide only. As with most building products, the cost of spray foam insulation will be influenced by different factors, such as: quantity.
Due to the lighter density of open cell foam, it will perform much better than closed cell when it comes to sound dampening. The thicker, softer material of open cell will reduce sound waves much more efficiently than that of the tight, dense closed cell foam.
Cost: The average cost per square foot is between $0.64 - $1.19. So, for a 500 square foot area, your estimate will vary between $145 to $200, if you do it yourself. For a professional job, add between $150 to $300 for labor, and you're looking at around $300 to $500 for 6 hours of work.
The average cost to install loose-fill (blown-in) insulation or batt insulation in a 1,200 sq. ft. attic ranges from $1,700-$2,000.
Cellulose is the oldest insulation material used for not only the attic but other areas of the home as well. Fiberglass is another traditional insulation material that consists of extremely fine glass fibers.
The most common types of materials used for loose-fill insulation include cellulose, fiberglass, and mineral (rock or slag) wool. All of these materials are produced using recycled waste materials. Cellulose is primarily made from recycled newsprint. Most fiberglass products contain 40% to 60% recycled glass.
Closed-cell spray foam is the king of the insulations when it comes to both R-value per inch and cost. Nothing else comes close, really. Unlike its open-cell cousin, closed-cell spray foam is not vapor permeable and will not hold water. This makes it an excellent option in case of water intrusion.
Cellulose is the oldest insulation material used for not only the attic but other areas of the home as well. Fiberglass is another traditional insulation material that consists of extremely fine glass fibers.
There is little learning curve involved with the application, and a DIY job will cost you about $500. Calling in the pros, on the other hand, will run you about $1,500 to $2,000 for an average 1500 square foot home.
