Hot, humid summers and the occasional chilly winter night give Jacksonville properties a unique energy profile. Without proper attic and wall insulation, conditioned air escapes, HVAC systems work overtime, and monthly utility bills creep up. Blown insulation—also called loose-fill insulation—creates a seamless thermal blanket that stops airflow in hard-to-reach cavities. CountBricks specializes in matching the right blown-in material and density to Northeast Florida’s climate so homeowners stay comfortable year-round.
AI-Driven Estimates: Forget days of back-and-forth phone calls. Simply speak to CountBricks through our real-time voice interface and receive an instant, itemized estimate pulled from live material pricing.
Blueprint Takeoffs in Minutes: Upload PDFs or mobile snapshots of plans, and our neural network highlights every square foot that needs coverage—no manual counting required.
Licensed Residential Crews: Our installers follow Florida Building Code R402.1.2 for attic insulation depth and ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.
Verified Savings: CountBricks tracks pre- and post-install utility costs through our homeowner portal, demonstrating ROI within one cooling season.
Cellulose: Recycled paper fibers treated with borate for fire and pest resistance. Excellent at filling irregular gaps and providing sound dampening.
Fiberglass: Spun glass fibers that resist moisture absorption and maintain loft over decades. Ideal for humid coastal climates when installed at correct density.
The Department of Energy recommends R30 to R60 for attics in Zone 2B. To hit the sweet spot for energy savings without over-insulating, CountBricks typically blows:
• Cellulose: 11.5-15 inches (R42-R55)
• Fiberglass: 13-18 inches (R38-R60)
1. Free AI Voice Consultation – Tap the microphone icon on CountBricks.com/services and describe your home’s square footage, ceiling height, and current insulation.
2. Instant Estimate – Our engine calculates material, labor, and equipment in real time, then emails you a detailed quote PDF.
3. Pre-Install Inspection – A licensed technician verifies measurements, locates air leaks, and checks attic ventilation.
4. Air-Sealing & Prep – We seal recessed lights, top plates, and duct penetrations before any insulation is applied.
5. Blown Application – Using high-output blowing machines, crews achieve target density without compressing existing batts.
6. Smart Depth Verification – Infrared scanners and laser rulers record depth every 50 sq ft. Data is uploaded to your CountBricks project dashboard.
7. Clean-Up & Final Walkthrough – Attic accesses are re-weather-stripped, and all debris is removed within the same day.
Jacksonville averages $1.35-$1.60 per square foot for cellulose and $1.20-$1.45 for fiberglass, including labor. CountBricks’ live-pricing database auto-adjusts for:
• Fuel surcharges on blower trucks
• Seasonal manufacturer rebates
• Bulk purchasing discounts that we pass on directly to homeowners
Most 2,000 sq ft attic projects wrap in four hours. Complex vaulted ceilings may require an additional crew member.
All loose-fill products settle 10-13 percent over time. CountBricks factors this into initial depth so the final R-value remains above code minimums.
Our cellulose is low-VOC and fiberglass is formaldehyde-free. Attics are ventilated during and after application, and crews wear protective gear.
• Combine air sealing with insulation for up to 30 percent better performance.
• Request baffle installation around soffit vents to keep insulation from blocking airflow.
• Add insulation above garage ceilings to reduce radiant heat entering living spaces.
• Schedule duct leakage testing after install—CountBricks provides this at cost.
• Use radiant barriers only when attic temperatures consistently exceed 130°F.
• Monitor humidity with a smart sensor; moisture can reduce R-value.

A 1998 two-story home in Jacksonville’s Southside neighborhood averaged $285 per month in summer electric bills. A CountBricks voice consultation revealed only R19 attic coverage—far below today’s standards.
1. AI Takeoff identified 1,450 sq ft of attic floor and 320 sq ft of kneewall cavities.
2. Crews air-sealed 87 penetrations, installed soffit baffles, and blew 13 inches of fiberglass to reach R45.
3. A post-install blower-door test showed a 22 percent reduction in air leakage.
• Cooling costs dropped to $185 per month—a $1,200 annual savings
• Indoor humidity fell from 62 percent to 52 percent
• Homeowner received a CountBricks performance badge inside the mobile app, tracking ongoing efficiency
Off-Peak Season Savings: January through March offers lower material surcharges and quicker crew availability.
Before Roofing Work: Coordinating insulation and roofing projects reduces attic access labor by 10-15 percent.
1. Look for visible ceiling joists—if you can see wood, you likely need more insulation.
2. Feel for temperature swings between rooms; hot spots often signal wall cavities missing insulation.
3. Examine HVAC runtimes via your smart thermostat; constant cycling indicates lost conditioned air.
