Insulation Inspections

Insulation Inspections

What Are Insulation Inspections?

  • Verifies your insulation is properly installed before drywall goes up.
  • Ensures the thermal barrier is continuous, correctly aligned, and meets energy code requirements.
  • Our team performs pre-drywall checks on new construction and remodels to ensure code compliance and long-term energy performance.

Why Insulation Inspections Matter

A certified insulation inspection helps catch issues before they’re covered up—saving you time, money, and rework. Identifying gaps early also helps prevent excessive air leakage that may later require air infiltration sealing. Improperly installed insulation can lead to:

  • Cold drafts and hot spots
  • Higher heating and cooling bills
  • Failed blower door tests
  • Rejected energy code inspections
  • Missed rebate opportunities

Benefits of Insulation Inspections

  • Verifies insulation is installed to code
  • Supports passing blower door testing
  • Helps qualify for rebates and incentives
  • Ensures long-term energy efficiency
  • Reduces call-backs and inspection failures

The owner of the company is super knowledgeable and responsive. While other companies told me I didn’t qualify for rebates, Josh told me otherwise and guided me through the process. In the end he was right, I got a sizable rebate. I highly recommend working with them and would definitely use them again for future projects.

★★★★★ 10/10 As a builder and real estate developer, I work with a lot of consultants, and JB’s Home Energy stands out. Josh and his team supported my six-unit multifamily new construction project from the very beginning, getting involved during design and helping us evaluate and compare different energy and compliance options before we ever broke ground. They were reliable, stayed on schedule, and communicated clearly throughout the process. The blower door testing at the end was seamless and executed flawlessly. I would not hesitate to work with Josh’s team again and would recommend them without reservation.

We enjoyed working with JBHE and Tacoma Energy over the past year to obtain our maximum MassSave rebates. They were professional, timely, pleasant, and responsible. The home energy installation, assessment, and rebate process in Massachusetts can be complex, and these folks always made it clear and easy for us to navigate. I would highly recommend Josh and Robin! Marc Draisen Roslindale, Massachusetts
