Batt insulation in Bell County, TX
Fiberglass and mineral wool batts for walls, floors and additions in new construction and remodels, fitted tight with no gaps.
Insulation for open walls and floors
Batts are pre cut blankets of fiberglass or mineral wool sized to fit between studs and joists. They are the standard choice for walls, floors and additions in new construction and remodels, when the framing is open and easy to reach.
Batts only perform as rated when they are fitted carefully. Gaps at the edges, batts squeezed behind wiring and pipes, or voids around outlets all let heat slip past. Our crews cut around every obstacle so the cavity is filled edge to edge, which is also what inspectors look for.

Batt insulation questions
Can you add batts to finished walls?
- Not without opening the walls. For closed walls, blown in insulation through small holes is usually the better option.
Fiberglass or mineral wool?
- Fiberglass costs less.
- Mineral wool is denser, better for sound control and more fire resistant.
Do you work with builders?
- Yes. We price from plans and work to the build schedule.
Can batts help with noise between rooms?
- Yes. Batts in interior walls noticeably cut sound between bedrooms, baths and living areas.
