Insulation for Kilgore’s oil town homes and shops

Kilgore boomed after the East Texas Oil Field came in during 1930, and the steel derricks standing downtown today honor that history. A lot of the homes in town are decades old, with original or long settled insulation in the attic and little or none under raised floors.

The town also has its share of metal shops and work buildings, and it stretches across Gregg and Rusk counties. Whether the job is an older house near Kilgore College or a shop outside town, humidity is the thing to plan around.

Why Kilgore homeowners are redoing old insulation

Floors that are not cold

Insulation under the house stops winter drafts coming up through the boards.

Cleaner attic air

Pulling out old, dusty material cuts what can drift into the living space.

Lower bills all year

A full attic layer helps in both August heat and January cold snaps.

Fewer surprises

Removal exposes roof leaks and pest entry points so they can be fixed.
