Batt Insulation Naples SWFL - Perfect for Your Renovation Project

FiberglassBatt515-768x512

Remodeling your Naples home? Installing batt insulation while your walls are open costs just $1.50-2.50/sq ft and cuts cooling bills by 35%. Don't close those walls without proper insulation.

The $4,000 Mistake Naples Renovators Make Every Day

You're spending $30,000 on that kitchen remodel. Beautiful cabinets. Gorgeous countertops.
But you're about to seal up those walls with the same garbage R-11 insulation from 1985.
Here's what happens next:
Your new kitchen stays hot (poor insulation)
FPL bills don't change (missed opportunity)
You'll tear it all down in 5 years to add insulation (expensive mistake)

For just $1,200 more (4% of your renovation budget), you could install R-15 batts in those open walls and save $150/month forever.

Why Batt Insulation Dominates Naples Renovations

You've Already Done the Hard Part

Your walls are open. Drywall is down. This is the ONLY time you can properly install batt insulation without destroying your home.
Right now you can:
Install R-15 batts in 2x4 walls
Upgrade to R-21 in 2x6 walls
Add vapor barriers for our humidity
Air seal every penetration properly
Do it for 70% less than spray foam

In 2 weeks when drywall goes up:
You're stuck with blown-in (gaps remain)
Or spray foam injection (3X the cost)
Or suffering forever (most likely)

The Hurricane Ian Lesson About Batts

After Ian, we gutted 200+ Naples homes. Here's what we learned:

Homes with proper batt insulation:
Dried out faster (air flow between studs)
Cheaper to replace damaged sections
Mold remediation was easier
Insurance claims processed faster

Homes with Blow Insulation:
Held moisture longer
Required complete wall replacement
$15,000+ average additional cost
Insurance fights over "betterment"

Batts aren't hurricane-proof. But they're hurricane-recoverable.
