Will insulating attic flooring increase property value?


by DoItYourself Staff

Insulating attic flooring increases property value as it makes a house more energy efficient resulting in significantly reduced heating or energy bills. Warm air rises and can float into attic space, thereby causing considerable heat loss in the home. As a result, insulating your attic flooring increases your property value as it prevents this from happening and keeps your place warm and cozy. The amount by which your value of your property increases depends on the R-value (ability to resist heat) of the material you have installed for insulation as a wide variety of insulating materials are available.
