Blown-In Insulation in Rockwall, TX

Cellulose runs about R-3.7 per inch and fiberglass about R-2.5 per inch, so hitting the same R-value target takes noticeably more inches of fiberglass than cellulose. Cellulose packs denser and resists air drifting through the blanket better, but it's heavier and settles more; loose-fill fiberglass is lighter, barely settles, and won't wick water if the attic leaks. We read each material's coverage chart and blow it to its own correct install depth, because inch-for-inch they are not interchangeable.

Because it settles after install, cellulose more than fiberglass, the depth on day one isn't the depth six weeks later. We install above the final R-target so that once the blanket settles, the SETTLED depth still meets spec. Blowing only to the target on day one leaves you short after settling, and that's one of the most common ways a loose-fill job quietly under-delivers.

No, and that's the key limit of the method. Loose fill is a conductive barrier, slowing heat as it moves through, but air still leaks straight past it at top-plate gaps, can lights, and penetrations. Blown over an unsealed attic it merely filters the leaking air. Air-sealing is a separate step that should come first; the blow handles conduction, not leakage.

Usually yes, as a top-off, as long as the existing layer is dry, intact, and neither moldy nor matted. Loose fill drapes right over old fill, and we blow the added depth to bring the total up to target. If the old layer is settled flat or crushed by foot traffic, we re-fluff or re-level it first, so the new fill isn't just resting on a dead, compressed base.

Loose fill's whole advantage is a seamless blanket that conforms around joists and wiring with no gaps, but only when it's installed to an even depth at the right machine density. Under-fluffed or thin-at-the-edges fill leaves cold spots. We dam the eaves, dial in the blower density, and staple depth-marker rulers across the deck, so the installed inches are a measurement you can read rather than a number we promise.

Usually not on the same run. Cooking wants standing space and traffic; a fire wants seating and stillness. Two zones facing each other works far better than one wall doing both.

A masonry fireplace is a structure with a foundation and a flue and changes the space permanently. A linear gas feature or fire table gives focus and warmth with far less mass. Both are legitimate.

By where people will sit in February rather than where it looks best on a June plan. Prevailing wind and evening sun matter more than the drawing suggests.
