Crawl Space Insulation

Crawl Space Insulation Solutions in Rochester, Ithaca, Syracuse

Keep your home comfortable & energy bills low with the right insulation

In this video, Dr. Energy Saver solves home comfort problems caused by an unsealed, uninsulated crawl space. Watch to see how to make your crawl space more energy efficient!

Crawl spaces are shallow structures installed directly into the dirt under your home. Without proper crawl space insulation, they absorb the natural cold of the surrounding earth and transfer it into your home, leading to higher energy bills and less comfort.

If you have utilities in your crawl space-such as your water heater, furnace, or hot water pipes — the fluctuating temperature forces your heating and cooling systems to work harder, driving up energy costs. At Halco, we specialize in durable, long-lasting crawl space insulation solutions designed to improve comfort, lower bills, and protect your home.

We proudly serve Syracuse, Ithaca, Rochester, and the entire Finger Lakes region, including Webster, Lansing, Fairport, Auburn, Cortland, Canandaigua, and Pittsford.

Signs Your Crawl Space Needs Better Insulation

  • The floor above the crawl space is cold in the winter.
  • You constantly run the heat in rooms above the crawl space to stay comfortable.
  • Fiberglass batt insulation is sagging, damp, or falling out of place.
  • The crawl space smells moldy or shows visible signs of mold.
  • Rodents or pests have made a home in your crawl space.

Save with NYSERDA Rebates and Federal Tax Credits

Upgrading your crawl space insulation isn't just an investment in comfort — it's an opportunity to save. Halco works with the NYSERDA EmPower+ program to help homeowners in The Finger Lakes area take advantage of rebates for insulation upgrades. Plus, many high-performance insulation materials, like rigid foam and TerraBlock™, qualify for a federal tax credit, providing even more savings.

Many Homes Have the Wrong Type of Crawl Space Insulation

The traditional approach to insulating crawl spaces, using fiberglass batt insulation between joists and venting the space to the outdoors, often leads to issues like mold, sagging insulation, and reduced energy performance. Moisture in the crawl space can cause fiberglass insulation to get soggy and fall apart, reducing its R-value and effectiveness.

At Halco, we use high-performance solutions like rigid foam insulation and TerraBlock™, designed to withstand the unique challenges of crawl space environments.

Benefits of Insulating Your Crawl Space with Rigid Foam

  • Energy Efficiency: Rigid foam helps reduce heating and cooling expenses and prevents air leaks.
  • Durability: Unlike fiberglass, rigid foam won't compress, sag, or lose effectiveness over time.
  • Moisture Resistance: It won't absorb water or grow mold, making it ideal for damp crawl spaces.
  • Improved Comfort: Insulating crawl space walls with rigid foam brings the area inside the home's building envelope, keeping the floors above warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
  • Tax Credit Eligible: Rigid foam insulation qualifies for a federal tax credit of up to $1,200, helping you save while upgrading your home's efficiency.
