Insulation in Kearny, NJ
Kearny homes lose most of their conditioned air through crawlspaces, rim joists, and uninsulated attic cavities, and the chronic moisture on the Meadowlands-adjacent west side makes those failures worse and more expensive than in drier parts of Hudson County. Most homeowners call us in Kearny for crawl space encapsulation and vapor barrier work first, because a wet, musty crawlspace is the problem you feel and smell before you ever check your energy bill. Call Warmline Insulation Co. at (855) 657-3403 and a live person answers, 24/7, no voicemail.
Why Kearny Homes Are Different
Kearny’s housing stock was mostly built between the 1910s and 1940s for factory and mill workers. These are balloon-framed two-families and attached row homes with plaster walls, and the original builders often skipped insulation entirely. That means attic cavities and wall bays in many Kearny homes still have zero thermal barrier, while attached party walls push heat loss into the exposed gable ends and roof assemblies instead of spreading it around the building envelope. We see this pattern on streets throughout the Arlington and Schuyler sections, and it shows up the same way every winter: warm upstairs, cold downstairs, and a furnace that runs constantly.
The terrain west of Kearny Avenue adds another layer. That side of town sits on the edge of the New Jersey Meadowlands, where a shallow water table and low-lying lots create an elevated ambient humidity microclimate all year. Moisture management matters as much as R-value here, especially in below-grade and crawlspace assemblies. Superstorm Sandy in 2012 flooded a large portion of those western neighborhoods, and many homeowners replaced fiberglass batt insulation only to find it saturated and molded again within a few years. Contractors who work those blocks understand that closed-cell spray foam is the only reliably durable solution for flood-zone homes, and proposals that don’t specify it are increasingly viewed as short-term fixes.
Our Main Kearny Services
Two services get the most calls from Kearny homeowners, and each one has its own detailed page covering local pricing, signs, and the exact process we use here.
Attic Insulation in Kearny
Most Kearny attics from the 1910s through 1940s have little to no original insulation, and what’s there is often compressed, damp, or full of rodent droppings. On balloon-framed row homes, an uninsulated attic is the single largest heat-loss surface in the house, which is why the upstairs runs hot in July and freezing in January. We inspect the existing floor, air-seal the leakage points, and bring the assembly up to current code with blown-in fiberglass or cellulose, typically in one visit. See the full breakdown on Attic Insulation in Kearny.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier in Kearny
Crawl space encapsulation in Kearny is the single most common call we get from homeowners west of Kearny Avenue, where low-lying, marsh-adjacent lots sit close to the water table and groundwater intrusion is chronic. The 2012 Sandy floods saturated thousands of crawlspaces in those western neighborhoods, and many homeowners who replaced fiberglass batts afterward found them soaked and molded again within a few years. A properly installed vapor barrier with closed-cell foam on the foundation walls stops that cycle, and it’s the foundation of every other insulation upgrade we do in Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier.
Crawl Space Vapor Barrier
Signs you need it
You smell must or damp in the first-floor rooms, see condensation on ductwork or floor joists, or find standing water after heavy rain.
What it costs in Kearny
In Kearny, vapor barrier installation typically runs $2.50-$5.00 per square foot, with most 1,000-1,500 sq ft crawlspaces landing between $2,500 and $7,500.
How we do it
We remove any wet debris, lay a reinforced 12-mil polyethylene barrier across the floor, run it up the foundation walls, and mechanically fasten it so it doesn’t shift.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Signs you need it
Your crawlspace has open vents that let humid Meadowlands air in all summer, exposed dirt, or insulation hanging down from the floor joists.
What it costs in Kearny
Full encapsulation in Kearny runs $7-$15 per square foot, so a typical 1,200 sq ft crawlspace is $8,400-$18,000 depending on access and the condition of the foundation walls.
How we do it
We seal the vents, insulate the foundation walls with closed-cell spray foam, install the vapor barrier wall-to-wall, and add a dehumidifier where the space needs active moisture control.
Crawl Space Insulation
Signs you need it
Floors above the crawlspace are cold in winter, or your existing fiberglass batts between floor joists are sagging, damp, or mold-stained.
What it costs in Kearny
Insulating crawlspace walls in Kearny with closed-cell foam typically runs $2.50-$5.00 per board foot installed, with most jobs between $3,500 and $9,000.
How we do it
We remove any failed fiberglass, then spray closed-cell foam directly onto the foundation walls and rim joists to create a continuous thermal and moisture barrier.
What Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Vapor barrier (10-12 mil, floor + walls) | $2.50-$5.00 / sq ft |
| Full encapsulation with closed-cell foam | $7-$15 / sq ft |
| Closed-cell spray foam on crawlspace walls | $2.50-$5.00 / board ft |
| Crawlspace dehumidifier (installed) | $1,800-$3,500 |
Is a crawl space vapor barrier worth it in a flood-zone home in Kearny?
Yes, and in flood-zone homes on Kearny’s west side it’s essential, not optional. A vapor barrier alone won’t stop groundwater from rising after heavy rain, but paired with closed-cell foam on the foundation walls it prevents the saturated-batt-and-mold cycle homeowners saw repeatedly after Sandy. Call (855) 657-3403 for an inspection and an exact quote.
Why did my new fiberglass insulation get moldy so fast in Kearny?
Because Meadowlands-adjacent humidity and the shallow water table keep crawlspaces damp nearly year-round. Fiberglass batts absorb that moisture, hold it against wood joists, and develop mold within one or two seasons. Closed-cell spray foam does not absorb water, which is why we specify it on every west-side Kearny job.
Spray Foam Insulation in Kearny
Spray foam insulation in Kearny is the correct material for two specific problems here: chronic crawlspace moisture on the Meadowlands side of town, and uninsulated balloon-framed wall bays in pre-1940s homes that can’t practically receive batts. Closed-cell foam is the only insulation that adds structural rigidity, blocks bulk water, and performs as an air barrier in one pass, which is why it’s the default specification on flood-zone and rim-joist work in Spray Foam Insulation.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
Signs you need it
You have a crawlspace or rim joist area that stays damp, or you’re in a Sandy-affected western Kearny neighborhood where fiberglass has already failed once.
What it costs in Kearny
Closed-cell foam in Kearny runs $1.50-$3.00 per board foot, so a 2-inch rim joist treatment on a typical two-family is $2,500-$6,000.
How we do it
We prep the substrate, mask the work area, spray to the specified thickness, and trim any over-spray so the final surface is clean and ready for finish work.
Rim Joist Spray Foam
Signs you need it
Your first floor feels drafty near the outside walls, or you can feel cold air moving through the sill area in winter.
What it costs in Kearny
Rim joist spray foam in Kearny typically costs $1.50-$3.00 per board foot, with most full-perimeter jobs between $1,800 and $4,500.
How we do it
We clean and dry each joist bay, then spray closed-cell foam to a full cavity fill, cutting off air movement and the moisture that condenses on the rim board.
What Spray Foam Insulation Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Closed-cell spray foam | $1.50-$3.00 / board ft |
| Open-cell spray foam (attics) | $0.50-$1.20 / board ft |
| Rim joist treatment (typical two-family) | $1,800-$4,500 |
| Garage ceiling spray foam | $1,800-$5,500 |
Is closed-cell or open-cell spray foam better for Kearny crawlspaces?
Closed-cell. It does not absorb water, adds structural strength, and acts as a vapor barrier, which matters on the west side of Kearny where the water table is shallow. Open-cell is a strong air seal but it does absorb moisture, so we don’t use it below grade or in flood-zone assemblies. Call (855) 657-3403 for a recommendation on your specific foundation.
Can spray foam be installed in a finished wall in Kearny?
Yes, through injection foam methods that require small holes in each stud bay. It’s common in pre-1940s Kearny row homes where walls were never insulated. We patch and leave the walls ready for repainting. Most jobs take one day.
Blown-In Insulation in Kearny
Blown-in insulation is the workhorse upgrade for Kearny’s pre-1940s attics, where original builders usually left nothing but bare joists and maybe a thin layer of newspaper. In these balloon-framed two-families, the attic is the largest contiguous heat-loss surface, and dense-pack blown-in fiberglass or cellulose is the most cost-effective way to bring it up to code without gutting anything. We cover the full process on our Blown-In Insulation page.
Blown-In Cellulose
Signs you need it
Your attic has less than 6 inches of existing material, or you can see bare joists and feel cold air pushing down through the ceiling in winter. Cellulose works well in irregular Kearny attic cavities.
What it costs in Kearny
Blown-in cellulose in a Kearny attic runs $1.25-$2.50 per square foot installed, so a 1,000 sq ft attic is $1,250-$2,500.
How we do it
We air-seal the attic floor first, then blow cellulose to the target depth with a pressure hose, working around the perimeter and checking depth as we go.
Dense-Pack Wall Insulation
Signs you need it
Kearny row homes with original plaster walls and no insulation feel cold at the exterior walls all winter, and the rooms never get comfortable even when the heat runs constantly.
What it costs in Kearny
Dense-pack wall insulation in Kearny runs $1.50-$3.00 per square foot of wall area, with full exterior walls on a two-family typically $2,800-$6,000.
How we do it
We drill through the plaster or siding at each stud bay, blow the material under pressure until the cavity is fully packed, and seal each hole cleanly.
What Blown-In Insulation Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Blown-in cellulose attic | $1.25-$2.50 / sq ft |
| Blown-in fiberglass attic | $1.50-$3.00 / sq ft |
| Dense-pack wall (existing walls) | $1.50-$3.00 / sq ft |
| Blown-in top-up over existing | $1.00-$2.00 / sq ft |
Is blown-in insulation enough for a Kearny attic, or do I need spray foam?
For most dry attics in Kearny, blown-in fiberglass or cellulose at the proper depth is enough and costs far less than spray foam. Spray foam makes sense in wet crawlspaces and rim joists, not dry attic floors. Call (855) 657-3403 if you’re not sure which assembly is right for your house.
Will blown-in insulation settle in a Kearny attic?
Cellulose settles about 10-15% and we account for that by over-blowing to the target depth. Fiberglass settles less. Both hold their rated R-value for decades if the attic stays dry, which is why air sealing before blowing is standard on our Kearny jobs.
Radiant Barrier Installation in Kearny
Radiant barrier makes the biggest difference in Kearny’s hot, humid summers, when uninsulated attics on 1910s-1940s row homes turn into ovens and radiate heat down through the ceiling all evening. On Meadowlands-adjacent streets the added humidity makes upstairs rooms feel even hotter, so a foil radiant barrier under the roof deck is often the difference between a usable second floor in July and one nobody wants to sleep in. Details are on our Radiant Barrier Installation page.
Attic Radiant Barrier
Signs you need it
Your upstairs is 8-12 degrees hotter than the first floor in summer, or your air conditioner runs nonstop during July and August.
What it costs in Kearny
A radiant barrier on the attic floor or roof deck in Kearny typically runs $0.50-$1.50 per square foot, so a 1,000 sq ft attic is $500-$1,500.
How we do it
We staple the foil across the roof rafters or lay it over the attic floor, creating a reflective surface that bounces radiant heat back outside instead of into the living space.
Radiant Barrier Roof Deck
Signs you need it
The roof deck is hot to the touch from inside the attic, or you can feel heat radiating down from the ceiling even after the sun goes down.
What it costs in Kearny
Roof-deck radiant barrier in Kearny runs $0.50-$1.50 per square foot, with most full roof-deck treatments between $700 and $2,200.
How we do it
We work from inside the attic, fasten the foil to the underside of the roof deck, and keep a 1-inch air gap so the radiant heat reflects rather than conducting through.
What Radiant Barrier Installation Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Attic radiant barrier (floor or deck) | $0.50-$1.50 / sq ft |
| Radiant barrier foil | $0.50-$1.00 / sq ft |
| Roof deck radiant barrier | $0.50-$1.50 / sq ft |
| Radiant barrier with ventilation upgrade | $1.50-$3.00 / sq ft |
Does a radiant barrier help in a Kearny winter too?
Minimally. Radiant barriers reflect radiant heat, so they help mostly in summer. In a Kearny winter the real win is air sealing plus blown-in or batt insulation, which we install alongside the barrier so the house works well in both seasons. Call (855) 657-3403 to find out if your attic needs both.
Will a radiant barrier make my attic hotter and damage the roof?
No measurable difference. Studies show roof deck temperatures rise 2-5 degrees, well within shingle tolerances. Proper ventilation matters far more in Kearny’s humid climate, and we confirm airflow is adequate before we install.
Insulation Removal & Replacement in Kearny
Insulation removal in Kearny is usually driven by three things: rodent damage, moisture and mold from the Meadowlands microclimate, or old rock wool and newspaper that’s compressed flat and useless. On Sandy-affected blocks west of Kearny Avenue, we routinely pull out fiberglass batts installed after the flood that are now saturated again. The full process is on our Insulation Removal & Replacement page.
Attic Insulation Removal
Signs you need it
Your attic insulation is flattened, damp, full of droppings, or smells musty, and your energy bills climb every winter despite adding material on top.
What it costs in Kearny
Attic insulation removal in Kearny runs $1.00-$2.50 per square foot, so a 1,000 sq ft attic is $1,000-$2,500.
How we do it
We vacuum out the old material with a commercial insulation removal system, bag it for disposal, and leave the attic clean and ready for air sealing and new insulation. Most Kearny attics are done in one visit.
Contaminated Insulation Removal
Signs you need it
You see mold staining on ceiling joists or insulation, smell mildew throughout the house, or know rodents have nested in the attic.
What it costs in Kearny
Contaminated insulation removal in Kearny typically runs $1.50-$3.00 per square foot when mold or rodent waste is present, with most jobs $1,500-$4,500.
How we do it
We contain the work area, remove the contaminated material with HEPA-filtered equipment, and sanitize the exposed framing before installing new insulation.
What Insulation Removal & Replacement Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Attic insulation removal | $1.00-$2.50 / sq ft |
| Contaminated insulation removal | $1.50-$3.00 / sq ft |
| Vermiculite or old insulation removal | $3.00-$7.00 / sq ft |
| Replacement blown-in (after removal) | $1.25-$3.00 / sq ft |
Should I remove old insulation before adding new in Kearny?
If the old material is dry and free of mold and rodent waste, you can often top it off. But in damp Meadowlands-adjacent homes, saturated material must come out first, otherwise the moisture migrates into whatever you add. Call (855) 657-3403 and we’ll tell you honestly whether removal is necessary.
How fast can insulation be removed and replaced in Kearny?
Most Kearny attic removals are done in a single visit, with new insulation installed immediately after. The only variables are attic access and how much contaminated material needs careful handling. Scheduling is straightforward and a live person answers when you call.
Attic Air Sealing in Kearny
Attic air sealing in Kearny stops the stack effect that pulls conditioned air out of these balloon-framed row homes and drags humid Meadowlands air in. Every gap, top plate, wire penetration, and recessed can light in a pre-1940s Kearny attic is a path for air you already paid to heat or cool. Sealing first means every dollar of insulation you add afterward actually performs, which is the order we follow on all our Attic Air Sealing work.
Attic Floor Air Sealing
Signs you need it
Your upstairs is drafty in winter, your heating bill keeps climbing despite a full attic, or you see dust stains on the insulation around penetrations.
What it costs in Kearny
Attic floor air sealing in Kearny runs $0.75-$1.50 per square foot, with most 1,000 sq ft attics between $750 and $1,500.
How we do it
We pull back the existing insulation, seal every penetration and top plate with foam and caulk, then put the insulation back at full depth.
Attic Hatch Sealing
Signs you need it
The attic hatch or pull-down stair has visible gaps around the edges, or you feel a draft when standing underneath it.
What it costs in Kearny
Attic hatch sealing in Kearny typically costs $150-$400, and it’s part of most full air-sealing packages at no added labor charge.
How we do it
We install weatherstripping around the opening, build an insulated cover or box over the hatch, and secure it so it forms a continuous air barrier.
What Attic Air Sealing Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Attic floor air sealing | $0.75-$1.50 / sq ft |
| Top plate and penetration sealing | $250-$700 |
| Can light and duct boot sealing | $200-$600 |
| Attic hatch sealing | $150-$400 |
Does air sealing really matter in a Kearny row home with no central AC?
Yes, it matters more in winter. Row homes still lose huge amounts of heated air through the attic floor, and sealing those paths cuts the stack effect that makes the upstairs freezing and the first floor drafty. Call (855) 657-3403 for an air-sealing quote; most jobs are done in a single visit.
Can air sealing and insulation be done the same day in Kearny?
Yes, and that’s how we sequence nearly every Kearny attic job. Sealing comes first, insulation follows within hours, and the crew leaves the site clean the same afternoon. No second appointment needed.
Wall Insulation in Kearny
Wall insulation in Kearny means dealing with balloon-framed cavities built before insulation existed, and often with plaster walls nobody wants to tear open. The exposed gable ends on attached row homes are the biggest weak point, because party walls mean there’s only one exterior surface per unit. Our approach for Wall Insulation is drill-and-fill or injection foam, done from the outside or inside without gutting the house.
Injection Foam Wall Insulation
Signs you need it
Your exterior walls feel cold to the touch in winter, rooms never hold temperature, or you can hear the wind outside through the plaster.
What it costs in Kearny
Injection foam wall insulation in Kearny runs $2.00-$4.00 per square foot of wall area, with most two-family jobs between $3,500 and $8,000.
How we do it
We drill small holes through the siding or plaster at each stud bay, inject the foam until the cavity is full, then patch and leave the surface clean.
Interior Wall Soundproofing
Signs you need it
You live in an attached Kearny row home and hear every cough, step, and conversation from the neighbor’s side, or between floors in your own unit.
What it costs in Kearny
Interior wall soundproofing in Kearny runs $2.00-$5.00 per square foot, with a typical party wall between $1,500 and $4,000.
How we do it
We add mass and dampening to the shared wall, often with mineral wool or dense-pack insulation plus resilient channels where the assembly allows.
What Wall Insulation Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Injection foam wall insulation | $2.00-$4.00 / sq ft |
| Drill and fill wall insulation | $1.50-$3.00 / sq ft |
| Exterior wall insulation (new construction) | $1.50-$3.50 / sq ft |
| Interior wall soundproofing | $2.00-$5.00 / sq ft |
Can you insulate the walls of a Kearny row home without opening the plaster?
Yes, drill-and-fill and injection foam methods put insulation into the cavity through small holes that we patch afterward. This is the standard approach for pre-1940s plaster-wall row homes in Kearny, and most jobs are finished in one day. Call (855) 657-3403 for a wall assessment.
Will wall insulation stop sound between attached Kearny homes?
It reduces it meaningfully, especially mineral wool or dense-pack material in the shared wall. It won’t create silence, but most row home owners notice a dramatic drop in voice and impact noise after we insulate.
Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing in Kearny
Attic cleaning and rodent proofing in Kearny addresses a problem that’s nearly universal in these early-20th-century homes: open soffits, unscreened gable vents, and gaps along roof lines that let squirrels, mice, and rats nest in the insulation. Once they’re in, they flatten the material, soak it with waste, and chew through wiring in balloon-framed cavities that connect the whole house. We cover the full process on our Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing page.
Attic Cleanout
Signs you need it
You see droppings or nesting material in the attic, smell animal odor in the upstairs rooms, or find chewed wood or wiring near the eaves.
What it costs in Kearny
Attic cleanout in Kearny runs $1.50-$3.00 per square foot, with most attics between $1,200 and $4,000 depending on contamination level.
How we do it
We remove all contaminated insulation, vacuum the space with HEPA equipment, and sanitize the exposed framing before anything else goes back in. Most Kearny cleanouts are done in one visit.
Rodent Proofing & Exclusion
Signs you need it
You hear scratching at night in the ceiling or walls, find new droppings after cleaning, or see daylight through gaps along the roofline.
What it costs in Kearny
Rodent proofing and exclusion in Kearny runs $1,000-$3,500, and it’s priced by the number of entry points we seal rather than square footage.
How we do it
We inspect every roofline penetration, seal the entry points with steel mesh and foam, and verify the attic is fully enclosed before we add new insulation.
What Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Attic cleanout | $1.50-$3.00 / sq ft |
| Attic sanitizing and decontamination | $500-$1,500 |
| Rodent proofing and exclusion | $1,000-$3,500 |
| Attic restoration (after cleanout) | $2.00-$4.00 / sq ft |
How do rodents get into Kearny attics in the first place?
Through unscreened gable vents, open soffits, gaps at the roof-to-wall junction, and holes around pipe penetrations. Balloon-framed 1910s-1940s homes have dozens of natural openings, so exclusion work has to be systematic, not just a single patch. Call (855) 657-3403 for a full roofline inspection.
Is it safe to sleep in my Kearny home if rodents were in the attic?
Usually yes, as long as the waste stays in the attic and you haven’t found evidence inside the living space. But if there are droppings in ductwork or the smell is strong upstairs, we recommend cleaning before running the HVAC heavily. Our technicians are background-checked and we handle the whole cleanup.
Home Energy Audit in Kearny
A home energy audit in Kearny is the diagnostic starting point that tells us exactly where your 1910s or 1940s home is losing air and heat, rather than guessing. In these balloon-framed row homes the answer is almost always a combination of attic leakage, uninsulated wall bays, and a damp crawler on the Meadowlands side. The audit makes every subsequent insulation job smarter and more targeted, which is why we recommend it first. More details on our Home Energy Audit page.
Blower Door Test
Signs you need it
Your house feels drafty in winter, your furnace runs constantly, or some rooms never heat regardless of the thermostat setting.
What it costs in Kearny
A stand-alone blower door test in Kearny runs $200-$450, and it’s bundled into every full home energy audit.
How we do it
We mount the blower door in an exterior frame, depressurize the house to a standard reference pressure, and read the exact air leakage rate on a manometer.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Signs you need it
You want to see, wall by wall, where insulation is missing, settled, or wet rather than guessing from utility bills alone.
What it costs in Kearny
Thermal imaging as part of a Kearny audit adds $150-$350, and it’s included in our full package.
How we do it
We walk the interior and exterior with a thermal camera while the blower door runs, which highlights missing insulation, air leakage, and hidden moisture as temperature differences.
What Home Energy Audit Costs in Kearny
| Item | Typical range in Kearny |
|---|---|
| Full home energy audit | $400-$900 |
| Blower door test alone | $200-$450 |
| Thermal imaging inspection | $150-$350 |
| Duct leakage test | $150-$400 |
Is a home energy audit required before insulating in Kearny?
Not required, but it’s the fastest way to stop spending money on the wrong fix. In Kearny’s old housing stock, the visible problem is rarely the only problem, and the audit gives us a documented leak map we can use on every later insulation job. Call (855) 657-3403 to schedule an audit; a live person answers 24/7.
Will an energy audit show moisture problems in my Kearny crawlspace?
Yes. Thermal imaging picks up the temperature signature of wet insulation and damp framing, and the blower door test often reveals air leaks that draw humid Meadowlands air through the crawlspace and into the house. We’ll flag it in the written report and quote a fix on the spot.

FAQs About Insulation in Kearny, NJ
How quickly can you schedule a Kearny job?
We generally schedule Kearny visits within a few days of your call, sooner if you are near the Meadowlands and dealing with active crawl space moisture. If your timing is flexible we’re happy to work around it, and either way we’ll confirm the exact appointment window with you before the day of the visit.
Are there code requirements for insulation in Kearny?
Older balloon-framed homes in Kearny often require fire-stopping when we dense-pack the wall cavities, which we include as part of the installation. Routine insulation work typically does not need a separate permit beyond that.
How does the written estimate work?
We inspect the attic, wall cavities, or crawl space in person and give you a specific written price before any work starts. That price accounts for any fire-stopping or extra prep the job needs, so there are no surprises once the crew begins.
What areas near Kearny do you cover?
Along with Kearny, we serve Houston, Spring, The Woodlands, Katy, Pearland, and Humble. Reach out with your address to confirm. If you’re not sure whether your address falls inside that range, just tell us your city and zip when you call and we’ll confirm coverage right away.
What happens to the old insulation?
We bag and remove old insulation as part of the job. Given the humidity near the Meadowlands, we check thoroughly for moisture damage before deciding what needs replacing. We keep the work area clean throughout the job and walk you through the finished space before we leave.

What Kearny Customers Say
"Injection foam in the walls of our 1950s house - no drywall demolition, just small holes patched and painted the same day. The street noise in the front bedroom is half what it was."
- Yasmin Farah"Upstairs was ten degrees hotter than downstairs every summer. They pulled the attic to bare joists, air-sealed every can light and top plate first, then blew it to R-49. First August in this house where the bedrooms and the living room read the same on the thermostat."
- Marcus Hale"Rodents had been in the attic for years before we bought the place. They vacuumed everything out, sanitized, sealed the entry points with mesh and foam, and only then put new insulation down. Photos of every stage before I paid."
