The best type of floor insulation depends on where the floor is located. We have solutions to solve a wide range of floor insulation problems in the home including over a garage and over unheated, unconditioned spaces.
To make floors over the garage warmer, we typically use dense-packed cellulose to fill the cavity between the cold floor and the garage ceiling. Dense-packed cellulose insulation has a much higher R-value than fiberglass and can stop airflow. The result is floors and rooms above the garage that are warmer and more comfortable — and quieter!
When the upper floor of a home overhangs the floor beneath, this is referred to as a cantilever. The portion of the floor that jets out can be a source of discomfort and energy loss. Unfortunately, most cantilevers aren't air-sealed and are insulated with fiberglass. We can solve this by insulating cantilevers with foam board or dense-packed cellulose; all of which offer high R-value and perform much better than fiberglass batts.
