As building materials and technology continue to evolve, it’s even more important to work with a company that has a long standing and trusted reputation. Time and time again Radiant Drywall and Insulation has proven itself, and shown its commitment to providing customers with the best products and services possible. That’s why builders, contractors and homeowners from Montauk to Astoria continue to turn to Radiant.
As a full service insulation and drywall company, we work closely with every client to ensure that not only do we meet their specific needs and expectations, but make product recommendations that we know will live up to the demands of the job.
Today we offer two different types of insulation to work with, and both meet the rigorous standards that our customers have come to expect from the products we use.
WHY SPRAY FOAM INSULATION?
“Spray foam is an optimal insulation option when looking for a long-lasting, powerful insulator to protect your home from outside elements while cutting down on energy costs”
Many of our customers come to us frustrated that even when they adjust their cooling and heating systems to save money, their bills still come in high. Yes, rates are rising throughout the area, but there are things you can do to help the situation.

Quality Materials
We are proud to use ICYNENE spray foam insulation products. This product is trusted by both contractors and homeowners as it is effective in sealing walls, ceilings and other places where air or moisture can infiltrate a structure. Very affordable, this type of insulation is available in both Open-Cell and Closed-Cell spray foam. Our experts are able to identify which kind should be used in the different areas of your home.
The Process
The first step in our process is to perform a no cost home evaluation where we walk through the structure and determine areas that would benefit from insulation. Once that is determined, then our team of carefully trained experts will apply the spray foam into any open building cavities that are suitable. This of course includes floors, studded walls and even ceilings.
Sometimes there can be a situation where there are closed wall/retrofitted projects. In these cases, we employ a special method called dense packing. This entails running a tube from our truck and filling cavities with cellulose after we have precision cut circular holes in the wall. But no worries! Once we are done, you will never see that we have been there, but you will see the difference in your energy bills!
WHY BATT INSULATION?
“Batt insulation is a highly effective and cost-efficient way to insulate your home. This form of fiberglass insulation makes your home more energy efficient and can lower your heating and cooling expenses by over 30%. It also functions as a viable soundproofing material by helping to prevent sound from traveling through a house’s framing”
Sometimes it’s preferable to use Batt insulation as walls, floors and other construction components may require a different thickness to achieve the optimal energy efficiency you need. All forms of insulation are given a rating score as an R-Value based on their ability to prevent the transfer of heat. This way, our dedicated team knows the exact thickness you need to best insulate the different areas of your home.
As determined by the Department of Energy, there is a detailed table we follow that can show the specific thickness needed to be put into place for interior framed walls, exterior walls and even floors and crawlspaces.
The Process
Before any installation, our experts will perform a close inspection to evaluate the different levels of insulation needed to provide thermal resistance within the various areas of the structure. Then, the fiberglass batt insulation is cut to exact measurements as determined by the team. This helps to not only assist with making your home more energy efficient, but also cuts down on waste.
An Added Bonus
We have a fully stocked warehouse with premium-grade batt insulation in all sizes and R-Values. Conveniently located in Middle Island, New York, means that our teams can cut down on extra trips to suppliers and we can get your job done faster and more efficiently. Even better, it allows us to purchase our materials in bulk, at lower costs, which means you save as well!
