Few building upgrades deliver the return on investment that proper insulation does—especially in a climate that swings from –20 °F winters to humid 90 °F summers. CountBricks pairs on-site craftsmanship with AI-driven estimating to make insulation installation in Minneapolis faster, clearer, and more affordable for residential clients.
Local energy auditors estimate that up to 35 % of a Twin Cities home’s heat loss escapes through poorly insulated walls and attics. That translates to higher utility bills, uncomfortable temperature swings, and added strain on HVAC equipment. The good news: modern spray foam, blown-in cellulose, and hybrid batt systems dramatically cut those losses—when they’re installed correctly.

A 1920s stucco bungalow near Minnehaha Creek struggled with drafty rooms and a frozen upstairs bathroom. After a virtual walkthrough, CountBricks generated a full AI estimate in under five minutes. The homeowner selected closed-cell spray foam for the rim joists and blown-in cellulose for the attic.
• 1,200 sq ft attic topped up from R-19 to R-49 in a single afternoon
• Rim-joist foam sealed air leaks that a blower-door test measured at 4 ACH50—down from 9 ACH50 pre-project
• Utility bills dropped $58 on average in the first winter month
• Total project timeline: 36 hours from signed quote to final inspection
• Schedule work between major remodel phases to avoid tearing out finished surfaces later
• Pair insulation with air-sealing measures like gaskets and weatherstripping for compound savings
• Rebate programs change yearly; CountBricks tracks current incentives so you claim every dollar
• Ask for thermal imaging before and after—proof of performance you can see
• Keep digital records on your CountBricks dashboard for future resale documentation
Because CountBricks estimates sync across all trades, many clients roll additional upgrades—such as high-efficiency windows or smart HVAC controls—into the same project schedule. Our platform recalculates labor overlaps and shared mobilization costs automatically, often shaving 8–12 % off the combined budget.
