Grafton VT Insulation Done Right for Historic Homes
At Farnum, we install spray foam and cellulose insulation for homeowners in Grafton VT and the surrounding Windham County area. This is what we do.
Insulation Services Built for Grafton Homes
For basements and crawl spaces, we use spray foam. For attics, we recommend cellulose, made from recycled materials. Both qualify for Efficiency Vermont incentives. You can’t see the difference, but you can feel it.
Spray Foam Insulation in Grafton VT
With spray foam, every gap gets sealed. That means less moisture and less cold air coming in. We handle every installation thoroughly and clean up completely.
Cellulose Insulation in Grafton VT
For attics, we recommend cellulose. It’s made from recycled materials, blown in to fill the complete attic floor, and adapts well to irregular framing. The result is uniform thermal coverage throughout the entire space.

Insulation Reading for Grafton VT Homeowners
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Farnum work on older historic homes without damaging them?
Yes. We have extensive experience with older New England construction. We select materials and access points that protect original framing, plaster, and finishes. For older homes, cellulose is typically recommended for attics as it fills around existing structure and allows wood to breathe.
What insulation levels should homeowners in this area be targeting?
Efficiency Vermont and Energy Star recommend R-49 to R-60 for attics and R-15 or higher for basement walls. Most older homes fall well below these targets. Our team takes actual measurements during the initial assessment and walks you through exactly what the gap looks like before any work is discussed.
How long does an insulation project typically take?
Most residential insulation projects are completed in a single day. Attic cellulose work and basement spray foam are efficient processes. We confirm a realistic timeline during the initial assessment based on the scope of your specific property.
Beyond heat, what else does insulation improve?
Proper insulation manages moisture in older structures, reduces noise, and helps heating systems run in shorter cycles. For properties built before modern thermal standards, the improvement in daily comfort can be significant.
