Serving Roswell, NM and surrounding areas. (575) 363-2820
Your walls should keep the Chihuahuan Desert outside. If certain rooms burn up in summer or feel drafty in winter, the problem is often empty or thin wall cavities - and we can fix that.
Wall insulation in Roswell creates a thermal barrier that slows heat from pushing through your exterior walls - most single-story homes are completed in one to two days with minimal disruption. When insulation is missing or thin, your air conditioner fights the outside temperature all day long rather than holding a comfortable indoor climate.
Roswell sits in the Chihuahuan Desert, where summer highs regularly exceed 100 degrees and winter nights drop below freezing. Homes built before the 1980s - and there are many in this city - were often constructed with empty wall cavities. If your home is more than 30 years old, wall insulation may be the most cost-effective upgrade you can make. Pair it with air sealing services to close the gaps insulation alone cannot reach.
We work across Roswell and the surrounding area. Give us a call or request a free estimate and we will tell you exactly what your walls need.
If your electric bill climbs sharply from June through August even when you keep the same habits, your walls may be letting desert heat pour in. Roswell triple-digit days are common, and a home with thin or missing wall insulation forces your air conditioner to run almost constantly. That is a wall problem, not a thermostat problem.
Walk through your home on a hot July afternoon or a cold January night. If one or two rooms feel dramatically different from the rest - stuffy and hot, or drafty and cold - those walls are not holding temperature. In Roswell, where indoor-to-outdoor temperature gaps can reach 40 degrees or more, uneven rooms are a reliable warning sign.
Hold your hand near an electrical outlet or light switch on an outside-facing wall. If you feel a faint draft or temperature difference, outside air is getting in through the wall cavity. This is especially common in Roswell homes built before 1980, where wall cavities were often left completely empty.
Roswell's dry, windy climate means fine dust is always in the air. If dust accumulates quickly on surfaces near exterior walls or around window frames, outside air is pushing through gaps in your wall assembly. Good insulation combined with air sealing can reduce this noticeably and make your home easier to keep clean.
For homes with finished walls - drywall already in place - we use blown-in insulation. We drill small holes in a pattern along the exterior, inject the material into each wall cavity until it is fully packed, then patch and finish every hole. On stucco homes, which are common throughout Roswell, we work from outside so your interior is never disrupted. The patches are color-matched and texture-blended so the work is invisible from the street. If you are unsure whether your walls have enough coverage, we can check with a thermal camera during the estimate visit.
For open walls during a renovation or new construction, we install batt insulation - pre-cut sections fitted snugly between studs before the drywall goes up. Both approaches produce walls that hold temperature the way they should. We also pair wall insulation work with air sealing services because sealing and insulating together deliver far better results than either one alone. And when you are ready to address the biggest heat-loss area in most homes, our spray foam insulation options give you a high-performance upgrade for attics, crawl spaces, and hard-to-reach cavities.
Best for homes with finished walls where tearing out drywall is not an option - no major interior disruption required.
Ideal for new construction or walls that are already open during a renovation - installed before the drywall goes up.
Roswell's climate puts unusual pressure on your walls. Summer highs push past 100 degrees and winter nights regularly drop below freezing - sometimes in the same week during spring and fall. That range means your walls are constantly being pushed and pulled by heat, and insulation that is thin or incomplete forces your HVAC system to work overtime in both directions. Homeowners here tend to see faster payback on insulation upgrades than homeowners in more moderate climates. The dry desert air also means dust infiltration is a bigger daily issue than moisture, which makes wall coverage a comfort upgrade as much as an energy one.
A significant portion of Roswell's neighborhoods were built in the 1950s through the 1970s, when wall insulation requirements were minimal or nonexistent. If your home is in one of these older areas, there is a real chance your walls are essentially empty. We serve homeowners across the region, including customers in Artesia and Carlsbad, where the same desert climate and older housing stock create the same need. Both PNM and Xcel Energy offer rebates for qualifying insulation upgrades in this area, and we will help you identify which ones apply to your project before you commit. The U.S. Department of Energy recommends R-13 to R-15 for wall assemblies in New Mexico's climate zone - we use that as our baseline for every estimate.
Tell us your home's age, approximate square footage, and any comfort problems you have noticed. We reply within one business day and schedule a time for an in-home visit - no pricing guesses over the phone.
We walk your home's exterior and interior, check wall construction and exterior finish, and may use a thermal camera to show exactly where heat is escaping. You get a written quote that breaks down scope, materials, and total cost - plus any rebates you qualify for.
The crew drills small, evenly spaced holes along your exterior walls, injects the insulation material, verifies coverage, then patches and finishes each hole. A standard single-story home is usually done in one day, and the crew cleans up before leaving.
Before we leave, walk the exterior with the lead installer and inspect every patched hole. Within the next heating or cooling cycle, you should notice your home holding temperature more evenly. If something feels off, call us - we will come back and check.

(575) 363-2820Most Roswell homes have stucco or adobe-style exteriors, and blown-in work on stucco requires more precision than wood siding - a careless hole can crack the surrounding surface. We have done this on Roswell homes across every neighborhood, and our patches are color-matched and texture-blended so the work is invisible when we are done.
We verify cavity coverage before patching the holes - either with a density gauge or thermal imaging. The biggest quality failure in blown-in insulation is incomplete fill that leaves cold spots in the wall. You should not discover that problem on your next energy bill.
We identify which PNM or Xcel Energy rebates apply to your project and walk you through how to claim the federal tax credit before you sign anything. Many Roswell homeowners recover several hundred dollars this way, and you should not have to research it yourself.
We serve 12 communities across southeastern New Mexico, from Roswell to Carlsbad to Hobbs. The North American Insulation Manufacturers Association estimates roughly 90 percent of U.S. homes are under-insulated - we know the Roswell housing stock well enough to tell you honestly where yours stands.
Every one of these points comes down to a simple idea: we do the job right the first time, so you are not calling us back because a room still feels off or a patched hole looks wrong. When you call Roswell Insulation, you get a straight answer and a clean result.
Close the gaps that let conditioned air escape and outside dust enter - the best complement to wall insulation in Roswell's dry, windy climate.
