It keeps chilly drafts outdoors, air-conditioned air indoors, and protects the house from developing mold. No new home is complete without insulation, so how can you make sure you are doing it right? While you could install insulation yourself with the proper knowledge and equipment, it may be more helpful and cost-effective to work with insulation installation contractors.<\/p>\n<h2>Why should you hire insulation installation contractors?<\/h2>\n<p>There are actually many benefits to hiring a contractor for your insulation needs, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">Expertise.<\/strong> Insulation contractors can take the stress and confusion out of insulation jobs, since it&#8217;s what they do day in and day out. Their expertise will ensure that the job is done right the first time.<\/li>\n<li><strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">Experience.<\/strong> Choosing the right insulation can be confusing and overwhelming. Should you go with batts and rolls, loose-fill, or spray foam? What <a href=\"https:\/\/wattsonhomesolutions.com\/fl\/insulation-ratings-fl-homeowners-need-know\/\">R-value do you need<\/a>? There is a lot of information out there, and a contractor can help you figure it out. Their experience with insulation means there will be no trial and error, and the project will be able to move forward quickly.<\/li>\n<li><strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">Knowledge of Building Codes.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/wattsonhomesolutions.com\/fl\/brief-overview-insulation-requirements-florida\/\">Insulation contractors know Florida&#8217;s building codes concerning insulation requirements<\/a>, and they are ready to ensure your project is up to code.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you think that using a contractor is going to be the right option for you, be sure to check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/wattsonhomesolutions.com\/fl\/insulation-contractors-what-to-ask-before-hiring-one\/\"><u data-redactor-tag=\"u\">tips<\/u><\/a> on what to ask before hiring an insulation contractor.<\/p>\n<h2>How can I make sure my contractor is doing their best work?<\/h2>\n<p>One of the biggest fears builders have when working with contractors is hiring someone who is not serious about the job&#8211;or worse, intentionally wasting time so they can make more money. How can you make sure your contractor is really doing their part?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">Communicate.<\/strong> Talk with your contractor. Make sure that you are in contact with them daily and that your expectations are clear. If you feel like you are not getting what you need from your contractor, make sure they understand the problem. If you do not tell them there is an issue, they will be surprised when you are displeased with their work.<\/li>\n<li><strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">Check the work.<\/strong> Even if you trust your contractor, make sure you are getting what was promised. Check that they installed the right amount of insulation, and check that R-value. If you are not getting what you were promised, your contractor needs to fix the problem.<\/li>\n<li><strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">Get a receipt.<\/strong> This is required by law. Make sure that you get a receipt for the insulation installed; you do not want an oversight to cost you down the line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How will hiring the right insulation contractor help in the long run?<\/h2>\n<p>If all goes well, you will have found a contractor that you can trust to deliver what they promise and do so in a safe and effective way. Great! Now before you go on your merry way, it might be worth talking to the contractor about a potential partnership. Ideally, they will be able to refer jobs and customers to you as well.<\/p>\n<h2>How can we help?<\/h2>\n<p>Wattson Home Solutions is a trusted spray foam insulation partner in the Tampa, Florida area. <a href=\"https:\/\/wattsonhomesolutions.com\/fl\/about-us\/local-testimonials\/\" class=\"broken_link\">See what our customers and partners are saying about us.<\/a> If you are looking for a new partner, give us a call.
