Attic & Crawl Space Insulation in Coweta County
Two-story Coweta homes often have long duct runs in the attic. Sealing the roof deck with spray foam keeps them out of summer attic heat.
Older homes near the downtowns of Newnan, Senoia and Grantville often have open crawl spaces. Floor insulation or a closed crawl space with insulated walls are both options.
Closed crawl space walls need R-13 cavity or R-5 continuous in zone 3A, a sealed Class 1 vapor retarder and a 3-inch termite inspection strip (R402.2.11).
Insulation and air sealing for the two places Georgia homes lose the most comfort: the attic above and the crawl space below, with spray foam, blown-in insulation or both.
Insulation in new homes and additions is inspected under Georgia's state energy code by the city or by Coweta County, depending on the address. We confirm the office before quoting.

We check insulation depth, ductwork, ventilation, moisture and access in the attic and crawl space.
Vented or unvented attic, floor or wall crawl space insulation, and the R-values each option needs in Georgia.
Wet, compressed or contaminated insulation comes out before new work goes in.
Spray foam, blown-in insulation or both, with air sealing at the gaps that leak most.
We confirm depth and coverage and leave the access points clean and closed.
Roof-deck foam if ducts or the air handler are in the attic; blown-in to R-38 if the attic is clear and only needs depth.
It depends on drainage and moisture. We inspect and explain whether floor insulation or a closed crawl space makes more sense.
Most attic or crawl space projects take one to two days.
