Spray foam insulation
Foam sprayed onto the underside of the roof or into open walls expands to fill gaps, so it insulates and seals air in one pass. It costs more, so we suggest it where it earns its keep.

Insulation contractor services in Bartlett, TN
Comfort Bartlett Insulation Company is an insulation contractor in Bartlett, TN, and since 2017 we've been fixing hot upstairs rooms, cold floors and drafty attics across the Memphis area. Our 16 services run from topping up an attic to spray foam and crawl space vapor barriers. The price usually turns on how much space we're covering, which material you choose and whether old, wet or dirty insulation has to come out first. The schedule turns on that same prep, plus any wiring or heating and cooling repair another licensed trade has to finish before we insulate. Your free on-site estimate gives you your own figure and lists anything that has to come first.
Attic insulation
For hot upstairs rooms and a high power bill, we check how many inches are already up there, keep the eave vents clear and bring the edges up as deep as the middle.
Blown-in insulation
Blown-in insulation is loose fill blown through a hose, which lets it settle around joists and wiring where batts leave gaps. It's usually the sensible way to top up an existing attic.
Home insulation
A whole-house look at the attic, walls and crawl space for owners who aren't sure where the heat is going. We tell you which part is worth doing first and which can wait.
Insulation removal
Insulation that got soaked, packed down or full of droppings comes out before anything new goes in, because fresh material laid over it only hides the problem. We bag it and clean up after.
Crawl space insulation
Cold floors in winter usually trace back to the crawl space. We check for damp spots that need fixing first, then insulate under the floor and seal the openings around pipes.
Wall insulation
Older houses often have thin or empty walls that leave rooms drafty near the outside. We fill those cavities through small openings and patch them, so the room stays closer to one temperature.
Air sealing services
Air sealing closes the gaps that let outside air in, around doors, outlets, plumbing and the edge of the floor framing, so drafts stop before insulation even comes into it.
Basement insulation
Basement walls and the wood band where the house sits on the foundation lose more heat than most owners expect. Insulating them keeps the floor above warmer through the winter.
Closed-cell foam insulation
Closed-cell foam is dense foam that also blocks moisture, so it fits basement walls, crawl spaces and other spots where damp air is the trouble. It costs more, so we save it for those spots.
Open-cell foam insulation
Open-cell foam is softer and lighter, and it fills awkward roof lines and wall cavities while cutting outside noise. It often suits an attic that holds the ductwork, where sealing the roof deck matters.
Commercial insulation
Landlords, property managers and small business owners call us for offices, shops and rental units. We work around tenants and leave each space clean when we go.
Crawl space vapor barrier
A heavy plastic sheet over the dirt floor of a crawl space keeps ground moisture from rising into the floor framing and insulation above. We seal the seams so it stays put.
Vapor barrier installation
Damp air that reaches a cold surface turns to water, so we place a moisture barrier in crawl spaces, basements and some walls. Which side it goes on depends on where the wall stays warm.
Attic air sealing
Before we add anything up top, we seal around can lights, plumbing stacks, wiring holes and the attic hatch, because that's where most ceiling drafts start.
Retrofit insulation
Many older homes were built with little or no insulation in the walls and floors. We add it to the house as it stands, working through small openings so you keep your finished rooms.
Why people hire us for insulation work
I spent years doing upkeep for a property management company, which put me in more attics and crawl spaces around Bartlett than I can count. That's where I learned how insulation fails, and I started this business in 2017 to do the work properly. You can read more about our background.
Homeowners call us, and so do landlords and property managers who want plain answers and tidy work. I would rather tell you a job isn't worth the money than sell you something your house doesn't need, and we treat every customer with courtesy, in your home and on the phone.
Leaks and damp spots handled first
We look the house over before we add anything and fix or flag leaks, damp spots and old wiring, because insulation laid over them only hides the problem and wastes your money.
Licensed trades for wiring and ductwork
In Bartlett, only a licensed contractor in that trade can get the separate permit for electrical, plumbing, gas or heating and cooling work, so we bring one in and stay your one contact.
Licensed, insured and clean when we go
We're licensed and insured, and years of keeping rental homes in repair taught us to bag old material and leave every attic and room clean. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Common questions about insulation work
These are the questions Bartlett homeowners ask us most often before they decide on an insulation job.
How much does it cost to insulate an attic in Bartlett, TN?
We can't give a fair number until we've seen the attic, because the price turns on what's up there now and what has to happen before new insulation goes in. Sealing the gaps and topping up loose fill usually costs far less than foam. I'll give you the figure for your house at the free estimate.
How long will the insulation crew be in my attic?
That depends on how much has to happen before the new insulation goes in. Topping up a clean, dry attic goes quickly, while pulling out soaked or dirty material, sealing gaps and clearing buried vents all add time. I'll tell you what to expect for your house at the estimate, so you can plan around it.
Do I have to leave the house while you install insulation?
For blown-in insulation and air sealing, you usually don't, though we'll ask you to keep kids and pets away from the work area. Spray foam is different, because the foam maker sets a re-entry time, how long before anyone can come back inside, and we follow it and tell you the hours before we start.
Is spray foam worth it over blown-in insulation for my attic?
Usually not, unless your ductwork runs through the attic. Foam costs more, and it seals air while it insulates. For most attics, sealing the gaps and topping up loose fill does the job for less money. When the ducts live up there, foam on the underside of the roof keeps them out of the attic heat.
Do I need a permit to add insulation to my house in Bartlett?
It can, so we check before work starts. The city's Code Enforcement office issues permits for all projects inside Bartlett and requires one for alterations and repairs to a building, though its list doesn't name insulation by itself. We ask what your job calls for and take care of any permit and inspection that's ours to handle.
Do you insulate homes outside Bartlett, TN?
Yes. We're based in Bartlett and work in cities across the Memphis area, including Germantown, Collierville, Southaven and West Memphis, over the state lines in Mississippi and Arkansas. Call (901) 295-2959 or reach us through our contact page to set up a visit.
