Home insulation is an area that hasn't had many breakthrough technological advancements until the beginning of the 20th century. This is because insulating a home efficiently is not always an easy task. Fiberglass insulation has been the most popular product in the industry since it was invented in the 1930's.
If water is leaking through the roof there could be other issues contributing to this problem. Snow insulates an attic from the outdoors. Deep snow on a roof will hold in the heat loss in the attic and will begin to melt the bottom of the snow pile just above the shingles. When melting snow runs down the shingles and reaches a cold overhang it will begin to refreeze creating the "ice dam".
Air leakage can dramatically affect the R-value of certain insulations. Identifying trouble areas is extremely important to solving problems with insulation failures. As energy prices soar, building insulation quality becomes a pressing issue. A thermal imaging camera can identify patterns of heat loss that are invisible to the naked eye.
While fiberglass is not as efficient an insulation as sprayfoam, it can still make a difference when properly installed. The old way of thinking about fiberglass needs to be undone. Although R-value is important, the value we think we need to do the job of insulating is inaccurate. The scale of R-values is high because the loss of performance we experience when we need it most.
We are certified industry experts with over 39 years of experience. When it comes to insulation, we've seen it all.

Simply put, last winter my house had huge icicles all around, this winter, because of Jag, my house is icicle free. We hired them to spray foam insulation in the entire roof deck in August. Boy am I glad we did that! Didn't know it was going to be such a cold winter. The year prior, we hired them to insulate the rim joist in the basement. Also a wonderful job. If you've ever taken one of those canned foam spray to task, you'd know there's some art to having a beautiful finished look. It takes a professional to have it look as beautiful as they did. The whole process was pleasant. From the manager

I’ll give JAG Construction a 15 star rating for spray foam insulation:
* Knowledge - 5 stars
* Professionalism - 5 stars
* Customer service - 5 stars
After years of raking snow from my roof edges to prevent ice dams, I hired the JAG team to remove layers of batting and loose insulation from my attic crawl space that had been added over many years and to install spray foam to the under side of the roof decking. Not only did my heat and air conditioning units run less often, but I also stopped hearing the patter of little critter feet above the ceiling - and I stopped raking the roof!

In July 2021 JAG completely corrected a problem which had occurred with foam sprayed in my attic in January 2019.
JAG originally spray foamed my attic in January 2019. The job was done very professionally. The attic foam looked fine a week after it was done, so I didn't look at it again until July 2021-- and I noticed large sheets of the foam were separating from the roof deck. I called Mike and he promptly came over and saw the problem. He felt it was due to a bad batch of chemical or excess moisture. Within one month JAG removed all the foam that was peeling off (about 90% of the surface area

Terrific Company. Jag Construction installed a foam roof with a silicone coating on our house in 2017. It is a low slope roof (2/12), so the obvious choice as EPDM, but we decided to use foam installed by Jag. The roof looks terrific--a lovely medium brown. It drains perfectly--but most important, our energy bills dropped by a solid 30%--no kidding, 300.00 to 200.00 in mid-winter. There have been a few contractors working on electrical and skylights since the roof was installed, so I called to ask Jag to come and check out the roof before winter. The owner came himself to check it out, found a

We have worked with Scott at JAG several times regarding insulation on our home. The most recent was after a major disaster causing significant structural damage to our home. His professionalism is so appreciated especially since it is difficult to find in contractors these days. The quality of work and the professionalism of the workers was also exceptional! They stand behind their work and definitely have a solid understanding of their materials and the needs of homeowners.
Thank you JAG!!

Used Jag to do spray foam for home addition and had them do a couple other areas including an attic storage space. Six years after application we were in storage space and saw issues that concerned us. Contacted Jag spoke to Mike, the owner, and he sent out people to evaluate. They agreed something had not gone right with this application in this area and sent out Kenny and Eddie to fix it properly. These two guys did a fantastic job - better than I hoped for. VERY happy with Jag for responding quickly and professionally and at no cost to us. Jag should be commended for standing by their work even

Jag Construction is a great company to have work performed on your residential house. They performed work up in my attic spaces where a lot of heat loss was occurring. And put me back on the schedule a a year-and-a-half after performing original construction to touch up a few places. I would highly recommend this company for anyone that is experiencing heat loss or can get any type of Grants through New York State or the city of Rochester. There management, general foreman and employees are top-notch.

Great company that does great work. I have had them do work at my house as well as my mothers and not only is the spray foam performing better than expected, the employees, installers were professional and extremely polite. I have had them do work at some of my customers as well now. 6 stars all the way.
