Barrier Insulation Did you know that one of the single most important and cost-effective energy-saving building materials in a home is your insulation in your attic, walls and windows? The improper amount of insulation can cause many of the other energy-efficient components found in your home to perform less efficiently.

Insulation can help provide monthly savings on your heating and cooling bills by keeping cool air out and warm air in during cold weather and the warm air out and cool air in during the summer months. Our professional and experienced team are dedicated to providing you with high-quality customer service.

Radiant Barrier
Report
Is a high performance insulation product that saves energy and improves comfort in buildings. Silver Shield has multiple layers of aluminum which separate when installed to form an enclosed airspace. These layers reflect and reduce the emittance of radiant energy by 97%. This reduces heat gain in the summer and loss in the winter.
Rolled Batt
Report
The most common and widely available type of insulation - comes in the form of batts or rolls. It consists of flexible fibers, most commonly fiberglass. You also can find batts and rolls made from mineral (rock and slag) wool, plastic fibers, and natural fibers, such as cotton and sheep's wool.
Spray Foam
Report
Spray foam insulation is the leading 100% water-blown foam insulation that minimizes air leakage for increased energy efficiency (often as high as 50% of conventional costs), creates a healthier indoor environment, reduces airborne sounds and offers greater design freedom. Spray Foam insulation maintains its performance with no loss of R-value over time.

I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing insulation services. Got a quote with a price match guarantee that was not needed as they were very affordable. The guys who came out to do the job were very professional, did a great job and most of all were on time. Very happy!

Jim D Scottsdale Great people to work with. They know their product well and what it can and cannot do. As an engineer I appreciated their honest explanations and expectations. Their bid was reasonable and I found their workmanship was excellent. After insulating the attic and walls, my job site was left clean. I am happy to recommend them to others.

Although I never met Rick, he was easy to reach. The team ripping out old insulation worked hard in the high heat. Due to worker shortage (COVID?) removal took longer than planned. Albert who put the foam spray in was fantastic. Some damage to ceiling occurred and was quickly repaired to my satisfaction at no cost. I would recommend Barrier to others.

My ac guy told me I have practically no insulation need to get asap to fix my cooling problems First one I reached out to was barrier at AZinsulation.com Rich called me and gave me my two most cost effective options gave me the quick rundown on what's the difference and didn't pressure at all. I did due diligence called other places couple in the same range but a tad more until they tell me of add on for this add on for that I immediately emailed Rich back to see what hidden fees to expect.

He said none the price I told you per sqf is it. I replied let's book. He realized I want it ASAP and got me squeezed in 2 days later. His son and another worker came by 6am. So nice. Made sure to work quietly not to disturb the sleeping kids. So respectful. Apologetic when my fuse was blowing and needed to switch the outlet they were using. Gave me a rundown of what they did and cleaned up after themselves! I totally recommend them! On honesty alone plus on top for kindness and alacrity!

Rick was amazing to work with. They came 2 days did removal of installation and then 3rd day sprayed attic with open cell foam. Amazing. Helping all of us understand the difference between open cell and closed cell and all the variables in it. The reason why I'm updating this review is because once the job completed I noticed fiberglass all over my laundry room. This being like the didn't do at clean up at all when the job was finished. I would give a 5 star but took me forever to clean all of it up. Still finding some.

Barrier was easy to work with, showed up on time, and were great with communication and response. They were upfront with what had to be done for me, and were interested in doing the right thing. Completely valuable, and I will be recommending them to my family and friends. Job they performed for me - insulation removal and spray foam installation. If you're on Yelp searching reviews on what company to select - select this one, give them a call and they will help you and show you why they get great reviews.

Price is fair and the quoting process was easy. All works were done on-time and my home is quite clean after the work was done. Communication throughout the process was quick and all questions were addressed. I personally inspected the work in the attic and it looks good. My heat pump probably only turned on half as much as before, the home temperature and humidity seems to fluctuate less. They are priced competitively but probably not the cheapest around. However, I always trust licensed, bonded and insured contractors more.

Please allow me to add my voice to the growing chorus of satisfied customers. We scheduled these guys to do a reinsulation on our attic and they did a fantastic job. The techs were on time and everything was done as promised for a good price. I will be recommending barrier to folks I know needing this sort of work.

Glad I called and selected Barrier to do the insulation work on my home renovation project. I received three to four bids on this job of removing my old blown in insulation from my attic, and installing foam insulation to two exterior walls and under the roof decking in my attic space. Barrier was not the cheapest bid by far, but the most knowledgable for sure when you talk with Rick the owner.

You need to be real careful on who you choose to blow foam in your attic/structure, the cheapest contractor can end up becoming the most expensive and causing you long term headaches and problems down the road. Do your research on this, the installer can be in-experienced, which leads to other problems, they can be using cheap Chinese foam, causing sick building syndrome, etc.

These guys have you covered and protected from those very real and potential issues, using spray foam insulation. I highly recommend you end your search here, you will be glad you did.

Highly recommend Barrier Insulation. They are great to work with. Had R30 insulation added to my home in North Phoenix. Easy to get a quote and was easy to stay in contact with throughout the process. Not sure if these guys ever sleep! Very pleased with the install team. Knowledgeable and friendly. Will recommend them to friends and family.

Christian and David showed up on time for the appointment and were two of the most courteous young men I have dealt with in a long time. They got right to work and stayed with it (even in this heat) and when they left there was no indication they were here. Clean, competent and courteous. I recommend this service highly.

This is the tough case story where Barrier stuck it out until the bitter end in order to satisfy the customer. I unknowingly had a leaky roof that understandably made the insulation foam smell. Rick got a general contractor involved to help track down the problem and is even going to replace the wet foam at cost for me. Barrier is a seriously amazing business that stands behind not only their excellent work but the overall value expected. I'm really glad I read the reviews and hope this helps other customers make their choice as well. I'm not a review bot, Barrier is legit.

They did am amazing job insulating my house. It has saved me a ton on keeping my house cool during the summer, and no need for the heater in the winter. They were on time and it was definitely a great price. Overall they did an outstanding job. Would recommend to anyone.

We had our uninsulated sheet metal duct runs insulated in our attic. Miguel (the spray tech) came out and spent 8 hours spray foaming all of our trunk lines. I cannot say enough on how amazing this guy is. He is a hard worker and delivers amazing service. Barrier Insulation gets my vote for a great insulation contractor. I will use them for any future projects and will recommend to anyone who is looking to spray foam

The summer is upon us and we needed insulation in our house. The previous owners never added to the original insulation. I called and was able to set up an appointment for the next week. The crew came out and did an excellent job. They were professional and polite. They cleaned up when they finished. I'm extremely happy with the service and the value I received. I will definitely be using them again.

Scheduled an appointment for been 6-7 am making the scheduler fully aware of a prior engagement at 1100. At 8:00, no one had showed up, so I called. The same guy says they are running a bit behind but assured me they would be there before 9. At 8:30 I get a call from the installer who says they should arrive between 9 and 10. I call the scheduler back and tell him that is not going to work, he seemed put off and I reminded him of my previous engagement and told him I don't want his people to rush and I don't want to rush.

He agreed to reschedule. After two weeks of the run around, I finally got another appointment. I was told I would be last on the list but they would be at my house by 2pm "at the latest". 1:30 and nothing. Called and he says I am next on the list and they are about half way through their current job. Asked how long the jobs usually take, he says an hour, sometimes an hour and a half. Assured me that they would be at my house by 3:30. Installers called at 10 after 4 and I told them to forget it. Obviously don't know anything about keeping appointments or proper scheduling of time. Disappointed after reading such glowing reviews.

Use this company! They are by far one of the most informative, honest and helpful businesses I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I have been selling real estate for 24 years I hired them to put insulation in a client's home. Rick the owner and one of his employees, Dustin, made the entire experience an absolute pleasure. I will recommend them with confidence.

I just had the attic insulation in my house added to. I can't say enough about Mario and Kyle. They were here and gone in no time. I went into the attic when they were done and it looked great. Thanks Rick.

They were the best sub on the job. Cleaned up after themselves and did a amazing job with the foam insulation. The owner comes by to check the work often during the job. Highly recommend giving Rick a call!

I had fiberglass insulation blown in to my attic, plus a fan and vents installed. Rick took the time to explain things and save me money. Great service I will use again.

Barrier Insulation, is, by far the best company to deal with for insulatiom. Rick, the owner, is a "straight shooter". He really took the time to explain the different types of insulations and what would be the best fit for my home and quoted me a price based on my square footage. The day of insulation was just as good. The insulators showed up on time and when they finished the job they cleaned up the jobsite. Mario explainedthe bill to me and Iit turned out I ended up saving more than was quoted, because I had less square footage than I thought!

I also got a 10% discount for being a vetern! I noticed a difference in my home right away. I would recommend Barrier Insulation to anyone who is looking for an honest, professional company. Thanks Guys.
