Serving Roswell, NM and surrounding areas. (575) 363-2820
Roswell summers push past 100 degrees and winters dip below freezing. If your home is not properly insulated, you are paying for comfort you are not getting. Roswell Insulation fixes that with expert insulation and air sealing across all 16 services.
Roswell Insulation is a licensed insulation contractor serving Roswell, NM and 12 surrounding communities. We solve the problems that drive up your energy bills and make rooms uncomfortable - air leaks, thin attics, uninsulated crawl spaces, and outdated wall cavities. With 16 services covering every part of your home, we have the right solution whether you are upgrading an attic or insulating a whole house from scratch.
Your home is leaking conditioned air through every gap and crack. Spray foam seals those openings and insulates in one step, so your AC actually keeps up this summer.

Attic heat radiates straight into your living space on hot days. The right depth of attic insulation puts a real barrier between 140-degree attic air and your ceiling.

Blown-in fills around pipes, wires, and corners that rigid batts miss. It is the fastest way to get a complete thermal layer across an existing attic floor.

High bills and uneven rooms are insulation problems, not HVAC problems. A whole-home assessment finds the gaps that are costing you money month after month.

Old, damaged insulation holds moisture and loses effectiveness over time. Removal lets you start fresh and fix anything hidden underneath before new material goes in.

An uninsulated crawl space lets cold air rise through your floors in winter. Insulating it makes your floors warmer and your heating system more efficient.

Walls built before the 1980s often have empty cavities with nothing inside. Wall insulation cuts drafts and keeps each room from fighting the one next to it.

Insulation slows heat transfer, but air sealing stops air from bypassing it entirely. These two services work together - one without the other leaves savings on the table.
Learn MoreReach out by phone or the contact form. We will ask a few simple questions - your home's age, which areas concern you, and what you have been noticing. No technical knowledge required. We respond within 1 business day and can often schedule your free estimate the same week.
A technician visits your home, walks your attic, crawl space, or the area in question, and measures what is there. We explain what we find in plain terms, note anything that needs attention before work begins, and give you a written quote that covers material, labor, and scope. No pressure to decide on the spot.
We arrive on the scheduled day with all equipment and materials. Most residential jobs finish in one day. When the work is done, we walk you through the completed job, clean up the work area, and make sure you have any documentation needed for permits or tax credits. You notice the difference starting with the first billing cycle.
We hold a valid New Mexico Construction Industries Division license. Every job is fully insured - if anything goes wrong on your property, you are covered.
We visit your home, measure the space, and provide a written quote before any work begins. You get the full picture on cost and scope before you decide anything.
We are a local business rooted in Roswell. We know Roswell's older housing stock, the desert climate, and what southeast New Mexico homes actually need.
If something is not right after we finish, we come back and make it right. No argument, no fee. We stand behind every attic, crawl space, and foam job we do.

"The attic crew showed up on time, measured everything, and explained why certain spots had thin coverage. After the job, my upstairs bedroom actually cooled down by early evening instead of staying hot until midnight. First summer I have not dreaded the electric bill."
Marcus D., Roswell - Attic Insulation
"We had spray foam done in the crawl space under our 1960s house. The floors stopped feeling cold in the morning, which sounds small but made a real difference day to day. The team was in and out in one day and left the space cleaner than they found it."
Linda K., Artesia - Spray Foam Insulation
"I called for a blown-in attic quote and got a clear written estimate within two days of the visit. The crew sealed the gaps around the light fixtures before blowing in the material, which not many contractors bother with. Three months later the bills are down noticeably."

Roswell's summer highs top 100 degrees regularly, and attic temperatures can climb past 140 degrees. Standard insulation codes cover minimums - homes in this climate often benefit from going beyond them. The U.S. Department of Energy recommends higher insulation levels for desert-climate zones precisely because the cooling season is long and intense.
R-value measures how well insulation slows heat transfer, but air leaks bypass insulation entirely. A home with great insulation and poor air sealing still loses conditioned air through every gap. Roswell's spring winds make this worse - exterior pressure differences push air through openings that would be barely noticeable in calmer climates.
Look into your attic. If you can see the wooden floor joists clearly, the insulation is too thin. A properly insulated attic floor should bury those beams completely. Homes built before 1980 in Roswell were constructed under older standards - many have just a few inches of original material that has compressed further over decades.
Open-cell foam is softer and more affordable, making it a good fit for attics and interior walls where moisture is not a concern. Closed-cell foam is denser, acts as a moisture barrier, and insulates better per inch. In Roswell's dry climate, open-cell handles most attic jobs well; closed-cell is the right call for crawl spaces or basement walls.
Adding new insulation on top of old material is fine if the existing insulation is dry, intact, and free of pest activity or moisture damage. If there are signs of rodent nesting, mold, water staining, or significant compression, removal first protects your investment. The EPA notes that mold in building materials spreads when undisturbed contamination is covered rather than addressed.
Homeowners who add insulation to an existing home may qualify for a federal tax credit covering up to 30 percent of the project cost. This is a direct tax credit, not a deduction. The ENERGY STAR federal tax credits page lists qualifying materials and current caps. Ask your contractor for an itemized receipt before filing.

Learn more about usAttic temperatures in Roswell can exceed 140 degrees on summer afternoons. That heat radiates through your ceiling into your living space, forcing your AC to run longer. It also degrades roofing materials faster. Proper attic insulation and ventilation limits how hot the space gets and how much of that heat transfers down.
Insulation slows heat transfer through solid material. But if air can move freely through gaps around fixtures, hatches, and penetrations, it bypasses the insulation entirely. Skipping air sealing is one of the most common reasons homeowners add insulation and do not see the energy savings they expected.
The payback period depends on your starting conditions. A home that is nearly uninsulated can see energy cost reductions large enough to offset the project cost in a few years. Homes with some existing insulation that just need a top-up take longer. Getting a written estimate with before-and-after projections helps set realistic expectations.
The NMSU Cooperative Extension Service identifies attic insulation as the single highest-return energy upgrade for homes in southern New Mexico - if you are not sure where to start, call us and we will walk you through it.
Roswell is the county seat of Chaves County and home to roughly 47,000 to 48,000 residents spread across a compact city grid on the Pecos Valley floor at about 3,600 feet elevation. The city is known across the country for the International UFO Museum and Research Center on Main Street downtown, which draws hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. For the people who actually live here, the more pressing reality is a housing stock that is mostly mid-century and older, with a significant share of homes built in the 1940s through 1970s.
A large share of Roswell homes are single-story ranch-style builds on concrete slab foundations, common across the Southwest from the 1950s through the 1980s. These homes sit within walking distance of institutions like New Mexico Military Institute on the north side of downtown, and the newer subdivisions on the city's northwest edges that have gone up over the past two decades. About 60 percent of occupied homes in Roswell are owner-occupied, meaning the people calling us are the people actually living in these houses - not landlords managing properties from a distance.
For homeowners here, Roswell's combination of intense summer heat, real winter cold, and persistent spring winds creates year-round pressure on poorly insulated homes. The city averages around 192 sunny days per year, and summer attic temperatures can climb well past 130 degrees. Residents near Bottomless Lakes State Park to the east and throughout all of Roswell's established neighborhoods know the feeling: high summer bills, rooms that never quite cool down, and desert dust settling on every surface after a spring wind. Roswell Insulation works on homes all across Roswell and understands what local housing stock actually needs.
