Stop losing heat through your attic. Patriot Spray Foam Insulation provides professional attic insulation for homes and commercial buildings across Delaware and beyond — with same-day and next-day service available.
Why Attic Insulation Is the Single Most Important Upgrade for Your Home
Your attic is responsible for up to 25% of your home’s total heat loss. In the hot summers and freezing winters that Delaware homeowners face, an under-insulated attic means your HVAC system works overtime — and your energy bills prove it.
The good news: professional attic insulation is the highest-ROI home improvement available. Most homeowners see energy savings of 20–40% within the first year. Patriot Spray Foam Insulation specializes in diagnosing exactly what your attic needs and delivering a solution that lasts the life of your home.
Whether your attic is completely uninsulated, using old fiberglass batts that have settled and lost effectiveness, or has moisture problems from poor air sealing — we have the right solution and the expertise to apply it correctly.

Complete Attic Insulation Solutions for Every Home & Structure
The most effective solution for air sealing and insulation in one application. Closed-cell spray foam creates a complete air barrier on your attic floor or roof deck, delivering the highest R-value per inch available. Ideal for attics with significant air leakage, moisture problems, or extreme temperature exposure.
The most cost-effective option for adding R-value to existing attic floors. Blown-in insulation (loose-fill fiberglass or cellulose) fills irregular spaces and covers existing insulation to bring your attic up to current energy code requirements.
Before adding insulation, air sealing is the most critical step — and the one most contractors skip. Every gap around plumbing penetrations, electrical boxes, recessed lights, and framing creates a direct path for conditioned air to escape and outside air to enter.
Old, damaged, or rodent-contaminated insulation must be removed before new insulation is installed. Leaving compromised insulation in place reduces effectiveness and can create ongoing moisture and air quality problems.
⭐ Patriot Difference: We assess your attic as a complete system — not just insulation depth. Air sealing, ventilation, moisture management, and insulation type are all evaluated together before we quote a single dollar. |
Our Attic Insulation Process — Step by Step
We inspect your attic, measure existing insulation, identify air leakage points, check ventilation, and assess for moisture. You get an honest diagnosis, not a sales pitch.
A specific, itemized written estimate with no vague ballparks. We tell you exactly what we’re doing and what it costs before we start.
We seal all penetrations, bypasses, and gaps before any insulation is installed. This step alone can reduce energy loss by 10–15%.
The right product, correctly installed to the manufacturer’s specifications and local building code requirements. No shortcuts.

FAQ
The U.S. Department of Energy recommends R-38 to R-60 for attics in Climate Zone 4 (Delaware, southern New York, and New Jersey). If your current insulation is below R-30, upgrading is likely to pay for itself within 3–5 years through energy savings.
Yes — in most cases. Blown-in insulation and open-cell spray foam can be applied over existing materials as long as the existing insulation is dry, undamaged, and free of mold or pest contamination. We assess this during the free estimate.
Most residential attic insulation projects are completed in one day. Larger homes or projects requiring removal of existing insulation may take two days. We provide a specific timeline before we begin.
Yes. Attic insulation is equally effective at preventing heat gain in summer as it is at preventing heat loss in winter. A properly insulated and air-sealed attic keeps conditioned air inside year-round, reducing HVAC runtime in every season.
Yes. Patriot Spray Foam Insulation handles residential homes, multi-family buildings, commercial warehouses, and industrial facilities. Our equipment and team are scaled for projects of any size across Delaware.
