What Is Cellulose Insulation?
Cellulose insulation is primarily made from recycled and plant-based materials—often up to 75% or more post-consumer newspaper or fiber, treated for fire resistance and durability. Unlike traditional batts or rigid insulation, cellulose is applied as a loose-fill that is blown into wall cavities, attics, or floors to create a tightly packed, seamless layer. This matters because:
- It provides excellent thermal and acoustical barrier performance, helping reduce energy loss and dampen noise.
- The high recycled content and low-embodied energy make cellulose an environmentally responsible choice.
- Because it fills irregular cavities and resists air leakage when installed properly, it strengthens comfort and control of your indoor environment.
How We Apply Cellulose Insulation
At Westside Drywall & Insulation, we tailor our cellulose insulation systems to your structure and goals. Our friendly and professional team manages every step from preparing the area, installing the insulation with minimal disruption, to cleaning up afterward, so you can focus on other aspects of your building or renovation.
Cellulose insulation is installed using a professional blown-in method that ensures complete coverage and maximum performance. First, our team prepares the area by sealing gaps and protecting surfaces. Using specialized blowing machines, the loose-fill cellulose is evenly distributed into attics, wall cavities, or floors, filling every nook and cranny. This process creates a dense, uniform layer that reduces air leaks, improves thermal efficiency, and provides long-lasting comfort and noise reduction for your building. We can apply cellulose insulation to:
- Retrofits and Upgrades – We install blown-in loose-fill cellulose insulation in walls, attics, or floors, even in hard-to-access spaces.
- New-Construction Applications – We integrate cellulose into new framing and cavity systems for seamless insulation from day one.
- Attic, Wall, and Floor Zones – Whether you’re insulating an entire building envelope, looking for cellulose attic insulation, or targeting key problem areas, we cover it all.
- Precision Installation – Our crews ensure correct density, verify fill levels, and minimize settling or voids, which are common with poor installations.
