Job completed for New Construction Insulation in South Shore, KY

Our crew insulated the roof deck with 6 nominal inches of open-cell foam, sealing off all the ridge, gable and soffit vents to create an airtight thermal cap rated at about 94% efficiency. We then insulated the wall cavities and shaved them flush so drywall can be installed.

Why insulation choices matter in new South Shore builds

Ice and heavy wet snow on roofs and eaves put extra strain on a roof assembly that is leaking heat from below. Framing lumber shrinks as it dries, which opens new gaps behind insulation that was installed tight. Building codes set minimum insulation levels, but a house’s real performance depends just as much on air sealing at framing joints, rim joists and the roof deck. A tight envelope is the most direct way to meet energy-code targets without relying on bigger heating and cooling equipment.
