In new home construction we have used both. The problem we found with fiberglass is the air infiltration. Any recessed lights on a cold windy day felt like having a window open so we had to wrap them with blanket insulation before blowing the fibeglass. Also, any water drips right on through the fiberglass. I've been in an atttic when somebody came in and slammed a door a little hard and you could see the whole ceiling drop. We have gone back to using cellulose now for those reasons. Also, the company that we use now sprays a liquid in with the material that is supposed to act like a glue to keep it from settling. They can install it in an hour or less where when we did it ourselves it would take the better part of a day to do it. They also install it for less than we can buy the product for so why not let them do it. You do have to get up there and let them know you are watching though or they sometimes do it a little thin in spots. For a metal roof without anything under the metal, I would recommend spray on foam. Costs more but it really insulates well and takes care of the raindrop effect of the steel sweating.

The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
