Best Cellulose Insulation in Massachusetts and Rhode Island
Discover the benefits of Cellulose insulation
Anderson Insulation is New England’s expert when it comes to cellulose installation. Following the energy crisis of the 1970s, Anderson Insulation started using cellulose Nu-Wool® insulation to insulate homes that previously had no insulation to save homeowners and companies money for heating and cooling costs. Decades later, we still find homes with little to no insulation.
Cellulose is a key way to insulate a home without having to do extensive renovations. It can be blown in from either the inside or outside. Today, many new construction homes are using cellulose insulation it their attics to meet the current building code standards.

Understand the Benefits of Cellulose Insulation
- Reduce Energy Bills. This insulation will keep a consistent temperature in your home, helping your heating and cooling systems to use less energy. This saves you money every month on your energy bill.
- Resists Fire and Discourages Mold. Cellulose is treated with boric acid, which makes it fire-resistant. This also makes this insulation resistant to mold. This will protect you and your family from the adverse health effects that mold can cause.
- Noise Reduction. This dense material that cellulose is made up of will deaden the sound between the walls and floors in your house, therefore providing great sound reduction from the outdoors and from room to room.
- Great Pest Control. The treatment of boric acid in cellulose insulation also has one more useful effect: it makes the insulation toxic to insects when eaten.
Cellulose Insulation: Frequently Asked Questions
What is cellulose insulation, and is it environmentally friendly?
Cellulose insulation is an incredibly eco-friendly option made primarily from recycled paper. At Anderson Insulation, we have trusted premium Nu-Wool® cellulose since the 1970s. Beyond being great for the environment, our cellulose is specially treated with boric acid, which makes it highly resistant to fire and mold, and even acts as a strong, toxic deterrent for household insects and pests.
Can I add cellulose insulation to my house without major renovations?
Yes, one of the greatest advantages of cellulose is that it can be blown in directly from the inside or outside of your home. This makes it the perfect solution for insulating existing, older New England homes that have little to no insulation. You get all the benefits of a well-insulated home without having to tear down your walls or undergo extensive renovations!
Does cellulose insulation help reduce noise between rooms?
It certainly does. The dense material that makes up cellulose insulation is excellent at deadening sound. Whether you’re trying to block out noisy outdoor traffic or reduce sound traveling between the walls and floors inside your house, cellulose provides fantastic acoustical control and noise reduction room to room.
Will installing cellulose insulation help lower my heating and cooling bills?
Definitely! By keeping a consistent temperature throughout your home, cellulose helps your heating and cooling systems run much more efficiently—using less energy in the process. We’ve been helping homeowners across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire save money on their monthly energy bills since the 1970s energy crisis.

What Our Happy Customers Are Saying
Have to say I am very impressed with this company! TJ came out a few days after I called for a quote, but I decided to go with another company at the time. Before I could sign the other proposal, things happened and weeks later I decided not to go with them after all. Kristen still had the proposal TJ had made, and I agreed to it. Within a week the work was done!
The 2 installers were very likeable and professional, and after they left, you wouldn’t know they had ever been there, it was so clean. I learned, too, that the company provides English lessons as a benefit to its employees – and most of the non-native speakers take the classes. They say it helps them learn the business as well as the language, because they can get answers to their questions about jobs at the same time. Kudos to Anderson – they do it all just right!
I would highly recommend this company!
These guys put up new gutters for me, and they actually did the work during a down pour. work looks great, very professional with the installation + cleanup–and the COST WAS A THIRD of what Home Depot quoted me for the exact same gutters.
This is an EXCELLENT company. I did an enormous amount of research and interviewed and priced out at least six other companies. Tony Trigler at Anderson came to the house on four separate occasions to review and price out our very complicated third floor insulation job using both iceynene and cellulose, not many companies do both. Our house is 100 years old and very drafty with a complicated roof line. Anderson sent two very professional crews in to to the job and were also meticulous in their clean up which was very important to me too. they were a pleasure to work with and their price was competitive and quite reasonable. They are a very professional operation.
This company really helped us out of a bind. We realized far too late in a project that spray foam insulation was the way to go. We called to see if they could fit us into their schedule — and they were able to! The price was reasonable for the work we needed to get done — spray foam insulation isn’t cheap from anyone. They showed up on time, prepped the work area carefully, and finished the job with little to no drama! At the end, they cleaned up and there was no sign they had been here — except for everything nicely insulated. I would definitely hire them again when we need more insulation work.
Excellent experienced crew of Paul and Jim took care of insulating the walls of my 90+ year old house’s first and second floors. They were careful in removing and re-installing my 40 year old vinyl siding so that we had no breakage.
Looking forward to lower heating bills this winter!
Overall, I went through 4-5 different outfits to evaluate which one to award this work to. This company had the best rep as well as competitive prices; not the cheapest but worth the extra money to get done right!
The job started on the date they committed and they got it done in the time predicted.
