How Much Does Insulation Cost?

The Internet is just jam-packed with estimates, approximations, and projections on the cost of insulation. There are charts, tables, and comparisons with enough facts and figures to make the situation more confusing than helpful. In the end, there is always a qualifier - costs and products will vary by region, by season, and by scope of installation. Then there’s the question of whether the job is big or small – this will also have a determining factor on cost with many contractors.

The more relevant question when it comes to insulation costs is about value (short term and long term). And here, it’s a matter of choosing an insulation product that will deliver the best overall value, the best lifespan, and the best dollar savings in the long run. For example, many insulation contractors are now recommending HYBRID installations that offer the best product attributes, while maintaining excellent cost effectiveness based on the homeowner’s project investment.

The key to good value is to hire a reputable insulation contractor that is committed to providing 100% customer satisfaction, whether it’s the price, the product quality, or the workmanship. At Great Northern Insulation, that customer commitment is at the forefront of every project, large or small. All products are warrantied by the manufacturer, with an assurance of performance. GNI also provides a customer Money Back Warranty that includes fixes or replacements at no charge.

The installers at Great Northern Insulation do the job right the first time. In the unlikely event that a customer isn’t 100% satisfied, every effort is made to find a satisfactory solution. In fact, problem resolution may even include a personal visit from a Technical Service Representative who will visit the property, audit the work that was performed, and expedite a remedy. With GNI, customers can rest assured of the highest quality products and the best value in the industry.
