Professional insulation installation underneath floor joists

Are your feet always cold when walking around your home, even with the heat turned up? Cold floors are more than just an annoyance—they're a sign that your home is losing energy and costing you money. The good news? Professional insulation installation underneath your floors can solve this problem for good.

Why Are Your Floors So Cold?

If you have a crawl space or basement beneath your home, cold air can seep up through uninsulated floor joists. This is especially common in older homes in the Toledo and Northwest Ohio area, where energy efficiency wasn't a priority when the house was built.

Common Causes of Cold Floors:

  • No insulation between floor joists in the crawl space
  • Old, deteriorated insulation that has fallen or compressed
  • Air leaks and gaps around pipes, ducts, and foundation walls
  • Moisture problems in the crawl space affecting insulation performance
  • Uninsulated basement ceilings transferring cold air upward

At Just Ask Home Improvement, we specialize in installing high-quality insulation underneath your floors. Our team works in your crawl space or basement to add a thermal barrier between the cold ground and your living space.

Warmer Floors

Say goodbye to cold feet! Properly insulated floors feel noticeably warmer and more comfortable year-round.

Lower Energy Bills

Reduce heat loss through your floors and watch your heating costs drop by up to 15-20% in winter months.

Improved Home Value

Energy-efficient upgrades like floor insulation are attractive to home buyers and can increase your property value.

Quality insulation also helps control moisture, protecting your floor joists and subfloor from damage.
