Insulation Contractor Services in Kennewick, WA
Since 2013, Reliable Kennewick Insulation Services has worked as an insulation contractor in Kennewick on hot upstairs rooms, cold floors and power bills that keep climbing. Price and schedule turn on the size of the space, what's already in it, whether old material needs insulation removal first and how many gaps need air sealing. Your written estimate lists each step.
Spray foam insulation
Spray foam expands into gaps as it goes on, so it seals air and insulates in one pass. It suits awkward framing and attics where the ductwork runs.

Hot upstairs? We check how many inches are already in your attic, seal the gaps around lights and pipes, then add insulation evenly out to the edges.

Blown-in insulation is loose fill blown through a hose, which lets it settle around joists and wiring. It's the usual way to top up an existing attic.

Not sure where the drafts start? We look over the attic, walls and crawl space together and write up which parts of your house need work first.

When old insulation is soaked, matted or full of droppings, we take it out before anything new goes in, so the problem doesn't stay under fresh material.

Cold floors usually start below them. We insulate the crawl space all the way to the back wall where it's tightest, so the floors above lose less heat.

For outside walls that feel cold to the touch, we fill cavities that are empty or where old insulation has slumped, often through small holes we patch afterward.

Air sealing means closing the gaps where air leaks in and out of your house, around pipes, wiring, chimneys and hatches, before any new insulation goes in.

We insulate basement walls and the rim along the top of the foundation, which makes a finished or half-finished basement easier to keep warm.

Closed-cell foam is dense foam that blocks moisture as well as air. We use it for crawl spaces, foundation walls and other spots that can get damp.

What's open-cell foam for? It's a softer, lighter foam that fills odd-shaped cavities and seals air, and it fits rooflines and inside walls where moisture isn't the worry.

We insulate shops, offices and rental buildings for business owners and landlords, with the same look at what's already there before we put a plan on paper.
Explore Commercial insulationCrawl space vapor barrier
Damp, musty crawl space? We lay a heavy plastic sheet over the dirt floor, lapped and sealed at the seams, so less ground moisture rises into the space.

A vapor barrier is a sheet that slows moisture moving into walls, floors and ceilings. We add one where the insulation plan for your house calls for it.

Before insulation goes in, we seal around can lights, pipes, wiring holes and the attic hatch, so the new layer isn't fighting a draft.

Retrofit insulation adds to a house that's already built and lived in, through attics, crawl spaces and closed walls, with as little opening up as the job allows.

Reliable Kennewick Insulation Services, an insulation contractor based in Kennewick
I spent years at a desk before learning insulation on another contractor's crew, and then I started this business in Kennewick. We insulate homes, rentals and commercial buildings, and I look at every job myself while our installers do the work. We're fully licensed and insured.
We're based in Kennewick and work across the cities around it on both sides of the state line. Call (509) 396-5461, email estimates@insulationkennewick.com, use our contact page or read more about how we work.
Why Kennewick homeowners call us
Most of our calls start with a cold room or a power bill that keeps climbing. We look at what's already in your attic, walls or crawl space first, so you pay for the work your house needs and not a package.
Gaps sealed before insulation goes in
We close the openings around lights, pipes and the hatch first, because insulation laid over open gaps lets air keep moving straight through it.
Problems named before work starts
If old insulation is soaked or something in the house needs fixing first, I'll tell you plainly instead of covering it with new material.
An estimate you can compare
Your estimate spells out each part of the job and what it's for, so you can line it up against other bids and see what you're paying for.

Insulation questions we hear most
How much does insulation cost in Kennewick, WA?
It depends on the size of the space, what's already in it and what has to happen before new insulation goes in, so we price each house after seeing it. Removing old material, sealing a lot of gaps or choosing foam over blown-in all raise the cost. Your free estimate lists each step so you can see where the money goes.
Is spray foam worth the extra cost over blown-in insulation in my attic?
Usually not, unless your ductwork runs through the attic. Foam costs more because it seals air while it insulates, but in most attics, sealing the gaps and topping up with blown-in does the job for less. When the ducts are up there, foam keeps them inside the sealed space, and that's when we'd recommend it.
How long will an insulation crew be in my attic, and do we have to leave the house?
It depends on the attic's size, whether old insulation comes out first and how much sealing there is, and your estimate tells you what to plan around. With blown-in, most families stay home. With spray foam, you, the kids and the pets stay out until it's safe to come back in, which we call the re-entry time, and we tell you that wait before the job.
Are you licensed and insured to do insulation work in Washington?
Yes, we're fully licensed and insured. Washington requires construction contractors to register with the Department of Labor & Industries and to put their registration number on estimates and bids. Kennewick also asks businesses working in the city to hold a city license on top of the state one.
Why do you seal air leaks before adding insulation?
Insulation slows heat but doesn't stop air, so any gap left open around lights, pipes or the hatch keeps leaking through the new layer. We seal first, then insulate, and we keep the vents at the eaves clear so the attic can still breathe and moisture doesn't collect in the framing.
Is your insulation work guaranteed?
Yes, satisfaction guaranteed. I check the finished work myself before we call the job done, including the edges and far corners of the attic, which are the places most often left thin.
Should old insulation be removed before adding new insulation?
Only if it's damaged. Dry, clean insulation can usually stay and be topped up, but if it's soaked, moldy or full of droppings, it comes out first, because new material laid on top just hides the problem.
Do I need a permit for insulation work in Kennewick?
It depends on the job, so we check with the city's Building Safety Division before work starts instead of assuming. The city issues residential building permits for remodels and alterations, and work under a building permit gets inspected at set stages. When your job needs a permit, we take care of it with the city.
