Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
Batt insulation is insulation cut into blankets, usually fiberglass or mineral wool, that fit between rafters or ceiling joists. This page is that form, in an attic or at a ceiling that is open to be fitted.

The work
Batts work when they fill the bay and stay in contact with the ceiling they are insulating, without blocking the soffit vents. Compressed batts, or batts with gaps at the edges, leave the ceiling under-insulated in strips. They are a poor way to top off an attic that already has a deep loose layer.
Loose fiber blown across an attic floor is blown-in insulation. A full remove-and-replace is insulation replacement.
Why it matters
Batts are straightforward where the framing is open and regular. They are a frustrating material in an attic full of wires, lights, and odd bays, which is when blown-in fiber covers more evenly.
The visit picks the form that fits the attic instead of forcing batts into a space they will not fill.
What to expect
The framing is looked at, batt installation and the price are explained, and the work starts after you approve it.
