Greene Solutions, was created by Rick and Thomas Greene, father and son. The company began as an idea that there was something very good about energy conservation. Energy Auditing was chosen as the place to start in this field because to save energy, you need to know exactly where you are starting from, what issues you have with heating and cooling, appliances, insulation, weatherization and air flow. These are all terms that most homeowners are familiar with. Air Flow is associated with leaky windows, under-insulated attics and doors that leak air but air flow is much more than that. All the little air leaks throughout your home can equal the equivalent of having 1, 2, or 3 windows open in your home. Our team gives you quality that you can measure and a finished product that will enhance your home forever. Call us today!

McCool Floors, Inc. is a flooring installation and finish carpentry services company serving central Ohio since 1997, specializing in prefinished hardwood floors, hardwood stairs, LVT and custom trim carpentry.
"From the moment Jim showed up for the estimate, I could tell he was someone I wanted to work on my home. He took his time measuring, was quick to give a quote and responsive to all questions throughout the process. On the day of installation, he and Jerry arrived as they said they would – and for the rest of that week, they came on time and did their work. Exactly what a homeowner wants. There were no calls to say, “Hey, we’re running behind on another job.” They did what they said they would do. Now, for the results. As a Real Estate Appraiser, I've seen plenty of shoddy work from sub-par contractors and I am pleased to report there was no sub-par work here. The floors came out beautifully. Smooth, straight and without error. The trim work was exceptional as well. (Though they caulked the joints and nail holes on the woodwork, do be prepared to add a bit of spackle and a dab of paint – which would need done regardless of who installed the trim.) I highly recommend McCool Floors for your next flooring project!"

Blown-in insulation offers several advantages over traditional insulation methods. This insulation option is fire-resistant, long-lasting, and more energy-efficient, providing superior thermal regulation for your home. Blown-in insulation fills gaps in walls and hard-to-reach spaces effectively, reduces noise transmission, enhances indoor comfort, and can increase your home's overall resale value.
Installing blown-in insulation in a 1,500-square-foot house costs between $2,625 and $11,250. Your total cost will depend on the type of insulation material you choose, labor rates in your area, and any additional work required, such as mold remediation or electrical adjustments. Hiring an insulation professional ensures proper installation, and labor costs typically range from $40 to $70 per hour. Getting detailed quotes can help you budget accurately for your project.
The cost of spray foam insulation ranges from $0.45 to $1.50 per board foot, while blown-in cellulose insulation costs between $0.60 and $2.30 per square foot. Spray foam insulation is less expensive per unit and offers excellent air sealing properties with higher R-values. Blown-in cellulose, made from recycled materials, is slightly more expensive but provides superior soundproofing and is environmentally friendly. Choosing between the two depends on your specific insulation needs, budget, and preference for eco-friendly materials.
Blown-in insulation is generally cheaper to install than batts. Batt and roll insulation can cost up to $2,500 on average, whereas blown-in insulation often results in cost savings due to lower material and labor expenses. Additionally, blown-in insulation fills gaps and irregular spaces more effectively, improving energy efficiency. Opting for blown-in insulation can save you money while providing better coverage and performance compared to traditional batts.
The best R-value for blown-in insulation depends on the area of your home you're insulating and your specific climate zone. Generally, attics in the U.S. should have an R-value between 30 and 60, with colder regions requiring higher values for optimal energy efficiency. Walls typically need R-values between 13 and 21. Consulting with a professional can help determine the ideal R-value for your insulation project based on local building codes and energy requirements.
Your decision to remove old insulation before installing blown-in insulation depends on the condition of the existing material. If the old insulation is damaged, moldy, or infested with pests, you should remove it to prevent health hazards and ensure effectiveness. If the existing insulation is in good condition, you can often install blown-in insulation over it to increase R-value and improve efficiency. Consulting with a professional insulation installer can help determine the best course of action for your specific situation.
