Our Approach

Tired of cold spots, high energy bills, and rooms that never seem comfortable? Discover how Bestway Insulation’s innovative approach can make your Colorado home cozier, more efficient, and better for the planet.

Living in Colorado means dealing with temperature extremes throughout the year. If your home isn’t properly insulated, you’re likely experiencing:

• Rooms that stay cold no matter how high you set the thermostat
• Drafty areas near walls and windows
• Floors that feel like ice in winter
• High energy bills that spike during extreme weather
• Inconsistent temperatures from room to room

These aren’t just minor inconveniences – they’re signs that your home is wasting energy and compromising your comfort every single day.

The Hidden Truth About Most Colorado Homes

What most homeowners don’t realize is that 89% of homes have underinsulated walls. This isn’t just a statistic; it’s the reality we see every day in homes across Colorado.

Traditional insulation companies focus only on attics, missing the bigger picture. When your walls are poorly insulated, the mean radiant surface temperature – the temperature of the surfaces around you – has a greater impact on your comfort than many realize. That’s why sealing cracks around doors and windows often doesn’t solve the problem.

Your home is a complete system where each component affects the others. When one part is underperforming, the entire system suffers.

Our Unique Approach: Whole-Home Solutions

At Bestway Insulation, we take a fundamentally different approach to home insulation. With nearly 50 years of experience as Colorado’s insulation specialists, we’ve developed techniques and methods that transform how homes perform.

Systems-Based Thinking

Unlike companies that treat each part of your home in isolation, we understand that your house functions as an integrated system:

• We assess how air moves through your entire home
• We identify how different components interact and affect each other
• We prioritize improvements based on what will make the most significant difference to your comfort and energy bills
• We consider both immediate comfort and long-term efficiency

This comprehensive approach is why we’ve been trusted to insulate prestigious properties like the Governor’s Mansion, where our wall, cathedral, knee wall, and air sealing techniques showcased the dramatic improvement possible with our methods.

Solving Problems Others Can’t

Our decades of experience have led us to develop specialized techniques for challenges that leave other contractors stumped:

• Existing Wall Insulation: We’ve engineered a dense-packed cellulose method that can properly insulate walls – even those that already contain insulation – increasing R-value and dramatically reducing air leakage.
  
• Brick Home Solutions: Our innovative approach allows us to insulate brick homes from the outside, a technique we pioneered to solve a problem many said couldn’t be fixed.
  
• Challenging Spaces: We’ve mastered techniques for insulating difficult areas like cathedral ceilings, scissor trusses, and floor cavities that other companies avoid or insulate inadequately.
  
• Complete Air Sealing: As the first company in our region to adopt comprehensive air sealing, we address the entire boundary of your home for air loss, including all penetrations and areas with insufficient insulation.
  

Our Process: Tailored to Your Home’s Needs

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Here’s how we create a customized approach for your specific home:

1. Initial Consultation & Assessment

Our process begins with listening to your concerns. Whether you’re dealing with cold rooms, high energy bills, or other comfort issues, we start by understanding your specific situation.

Depending on your needs, we offer:

• Phone Consultations: Our expert team provides initial guidance based on your description of the problems.
  
• Free On-Site Estimates: We visit your home to conduct a basic evaluation of insulation and air sealing needs.
  
• Comprehensive Energy Assessment: For those wanting to fully understand their home’s performance, our energy audit evaluates all systems to prioritize the most effective short and long-term approaches.
  

2. Customized Solution Development

Based on our assessment, we develop a tailored plan addressing your home’s specific challenges. Our recommendations are practical, focusing on measures that will make the most significant difference to your comfort and energy efficiency.

We’re honest about what will and won’t work – if something is outside our scope, we’ll make appropriate referrals rather than attempting work that won’t deliver results.

3. Expert Installation

Our installation teams bring over 250 years of combined experience to your project. When we arrive at your home:

• We protect your living space by tarping doorways and placing cardboard in vulnerable areas
• We use specialized equipment to ensure proper installation density and coverage
• We apply our proprietary techniques for wall insulation, air sealing, and other solutions
• We continuously check our work to maintain quality standards

4. Quality Verification

We don’t consider a job complete until we’ve verified the results:

• We conduct blower door tests before and after installation to measure improvement
• We cross-evaluate projects among team members to ensure quality
• We check that the promised insulation density and coverage have been achieved

5. Results & Follow-Up

After installation, we ensure you’re seeing the benefits you expected:

• We process any available rebates to help maximize your investment
• We check in to confirm your comfort has improved
• We answer any questions about maintaining your newly efficient home

The Bestway Difference: Innovation Backed by Experience

What truly sets us apart isn’t just our technical expertise – it’s our commitment to continuous improvement and innovation in home insulation:

• Industry Pioneers: We were the first non-government weatherization company in Colorado to adopt a systems approach to home efficiency, looking beyond individual components to how your entire home functions.
  
• Standard-Setting Excellence: Our founder inspired the National Workforce Specifications, providing the first ANSI standard in the insulation industry. We understand that R-value alone doesn’t tell the whole story of insulation performance.
  
• Award-Winning Service: We’ve been recognized as Service Magic Contractor of the Year (2010) and received multiple “Contractor of the Year” awards from Xcel Energy (2009-2020), along with being a top 5 rebate producer and earning the Rising Star award from Efficiency Works.
  
• Comprehensive Testing: Our energy analyst has extensive field experience in both insulation and weatherization – unlike many energy analysts who lack hands-on installation knowledge. This practical expertise informs more effective recommendations.
  

Real Results for Colorado Homeowners

What surprises many customers is learning that wall insulation often has a more significant impact on comfort than they expected. This aligns with building science research showing that the temperature of surrounding surfaces affects how comfortable we feel in a space.

Rooms above garages, which are notoriously cold before proper insulation, become comfortable living spaces after our treatment. When we combine wall, floor, and attic insulation, the improvement in comfort is often dramatic.
