Frequently Asked Questions?
Is fiberglass insulation safe?
Yes, fiberglass insulation is safe when properly installed and handled with care. During installation, its glass fibers can irritate skin, eyes, and lungs. Wearing gloves, masks, and protective clothing reduces exposure. Once sealed behind walls, it poses minimal health risks.
How long does fiberglass insulation last?
Fiberglass insulation can last 80 to 100 years under ideal conditions. Its performance may decline after 15 to 20 years due to moisture, settling, or damage. Regular inspections help identify when replacement is needed to maintain energy efficiency.
Where is fiberglass insulation best used?
Fiberglass insulation is best used in walls, attics, basements, and ceilings. It fits easily between studs, joists, and beams, making it ideal for unfinished spaces. Its thermal resistance reduces heat transfer and improves energy efficiency in both homes and commercial buildings.
Does fiberglass help with soundproofing?
Yes, fiberglass insulation helps with soundproofing by absorbing sound and reducing noise transmission. It’s commonly used in walls, ceilings, and floors to dampen airborne noise and improve acoustics. While not a full sound barrier, it provides noticeable noise reduction.
Can fiberglass insulation get wet?
Yes, fiberglass insulation can get wet, but it loses effectiveness when saturated. Moisture reduces thermal performance and can lead to mold growth. If it dries fully and remains undamaged, it may still be usable. Prolonged exposure usually requires replacement.
Is fiberglass better than cellulose or spray foam?
Fiberglass is more affordable and easier to install than cellulose or spray foam but offers lower R-values and air sealing. Cellulose provides better thermal performance and is eco-friendly. Spray foam has the highest R-values and best air sealing. The best option depends on your goals and budget.
Can you install fiberglass insulation over old insulation?
Yes, you can install fiberglass insulation over old insulation if it is dry, mold-free, and not compressed. Avoid adding insulation with a vapor barrier, which can trap moisture. Inspect for structural damage or pest issues before installing new layers.
Does fiberglass insulation itch?
Yes, fiberglass insulation can itch because its tiny glass fibers irritate the skin. Contact during installation often causes discomfort. Wearing gloves, long sleeves, and protective gear helps prevent irritation when handling fiberglass.
Reviews from our customers over 48 years

Nealon did an outstanding job in terms of courteous services, as their team members, as well as Chris who was responsible for directing the job, were most professional!!! They cleaned up nicely, and my goods remained intact. Also and happily stated, it’s been one week since they’ve installed insulation in our home, and we notice a huge difference in the amount of energy we are using for heating…which equates to $avings!!! In short, we’d use them again, and glad we chose them for this endeavor!!!

Highly recommended. Their estimate was competitive, the work was done in a timely and clean manner, they explained what was done, and our house is warmer as we head into the winter. When we had a question, they came back out to talk with us and helped us answer our questions. I will use them again and recommend them to anyone.

They are an amazing company to do work with! Jen in the office is polite, pleasant, and very competent. The work was done well and very quickly. We had our attic and basement insulated. I would 100% recommend!

The Nealon team was professional and considerate of my property. I noticed a 200-kilo watt decrease in my electric bill along with an additional savings in oil consumption of 50 gallons. No more drafty cellars and so far, the mice have gone elsewhere.

Fast, efficient and great price! Didn’t even notice them insulating our attic and making a big difference already! Would highly recommend for anyone that wants to cut down on their energy bill!!
