Colorado Springs homeowners know the drill: gorgeous mountain views, dramatic temperature swings, and utility bills that spike every season. Adding or upgrading attic insulation is the most cost-effective way to control those bills while boosting indoor comfort. CountBricks combines field-proven building science with AI-driven estimating to make attic insulation simple, fast, and precise.
• Summer heat radiates through roofing materials, turning uninsulated attics into 130°F ovens
• Winter cold infiltrates through gaps, forcing HVAC systems to work overtime
• Ice dams form when warm air escapes, melting rooftop snow that refreezes at the eaves
Proper attic insulation creates a thermal barrier that stabilizes indoor temperatures year-round. The result is lower energy consumption, fewer HVAC repairs, and a quieter home—especially valuable in wind-prone neighborhoods.
CountBricks offers several material options, each calculated in real time by our AI cost engine. However, two products dominate residential projects in Colorado Springs.
• Made from recycled paper and treated for fire resistance
• Outstanding density reduces airflow and sound transmission
• Ideal for filling odd-shaped cavities in older houses
• Lightweight, non-combustible glass fibers resist moisture
• Settling is minimal, maintaining R-value over decades
• Bright color makes it easy to confirm coverage during installation
Our estimators will recommend an R-49 target—perfect for the local 5B climate zone—ensuring you meet or exceed current energy-code requirements.
Our field specialist captures dimensions and existing conditions hands-free using CountBricks Voice. Measurements sync instantly to your secure project file.
Within seconds, the CountBricks engine generates a line-item estimate with labor, material, and equipment costs based on live supplier pricing in Colorado Springs.

Certified crews arrive with calibrated blowing machines, infrared scanners, and safety gear. Average install time for a 2,000-sq-ft attic is under four hours.
We document depth, density, and R-value using thermal imaging. A digital warranty is uploaded to your CountBricks.com portal.
• Existing insulation depth: Topping off costs less than full removal and replacement
• Attic accessibility: Walk-up attics run cheaper than tight truss spaces
• Air sealing requirements: Gaps around can lights and vent stacks may need foam sealing before blowing in insulation
• Local rebates: Utilities in El Paso County often credit $350-$600 for R-value upgrades—our software applies these automatically
CountBricks projects in 2024 average $2.35–$2.80 per square foot for blown-in cellulose and $2.00–$2.50 for blown-in fiberglass, inclusive of labor and disposal fees. Every quote is itemized, so you see exactly where each dollar goes.
Energy-modeling data from CountBricks Analytics shows a 17–22% drop in annual heating and cooling costs after achieving R-49. Most homeowners recover their insulation investment in under four years—faster if they pair the upgrade with a high-efficiency heat pump.
No. Our crews maintain manufacturer-specified ventilation clearances, so your roof warranty remains intact.
Only if it is wet, rodent-infested, or significantly compressed. CountBricks technicians assess during the site walkthrough and include removal pricing if needed.
Most Colorado Springs attics are completed in half a day, including setup and cleanup.
• Schedule installation on a mild day—the attic will be more comfortable to prep and seal
• Replace recessed lights with IC-rated fixtures before insulation to prevent overheating
• Ask us to integrate smart thermostats; pairing better controls with new insulation maximizes savings
