Lexington, Virginia is situated in the picturesque Shenandoah Valley and surrounded by scenic mountain landscapes, making it a great place for outdoor enthusiasts. However, since it’s also home to both Washington and Lee University and the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington is also a vibrant community that’s steeped in history.
Historic Victorian and colonial homes are common throughout Lexington, but unfortunately they’re prone to efficiency, comfort, and indoor air quality issues. Responsible House is an insulation company with over 30 years of experience serving Lexington. We offer a high-performance solution to these issues and more with our insulation services.
Lexington Insulation Services Based on Building Science
Whether you’re having comfort and efficiency issues in your home or are looking for ways to lower your year-round energy bills, Responsible House can find a reliable & long-lasting solution with our comprehensive insulation services.
Spray Foam Insulation
We provide high-quality installation of spray foam insulation, which can both insulate and air seal your home and deliver ultimate protection from Lexington’s diverse climate. Our team works with both open-cell and closed-cell spray foam and can help determine which one is best for your home’s specific needs.
Attic Insulation & Conditioned Attics
As one of the leading sources for energy loss in a home, attics are an important area to insulate. Attic insulation can help improve your whole-home comfort and solve issues like ice dams and an upstairs that’s too hot.
At Responsible House, we also specialize in conditioned attics, which involves insulating underneath the roof sheathing rather than the attic floor to include the space in your home’s thermal envelope.
Crawl Space Services
Your home’s crawl space could be a source for both energy loss and indoor air quality issues. We can help turn your musty crawl space into a more efficient and comfortable area of your home with air sealing, insulation, and vapor barrier installation.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Solutions
At Responsible House, we take a whole-home, building science approach to improving indoor air quality in Lexington homes. Our services address the root cause of IAQ issues and include energy recovery ventilation (ERV) installation and more.
Air Sealing
Combining air sealing with insulation upgrades will enhance your protection from the outside elements, promote healthy indoor air, provide moisture control, and more. At Responsible House, we use spray foam insulation for air sealing because of its superior coverage capabilities.
Home Energy Audits
Our in-depth energy audits include a full inspection of your home’s performance and safety and will identify areas of air leakage, poor insulation, and more.
Blower Door & Duct Blaster Testing
Blower door and duct blaster testing is required when building a new home in Lexington and we work with builders and homeowners alike to make sure your build stays on schedule and budget.
Commercial Services

Lower the Cost of Insulation Upgrades with Incentives
Lexington homeowners can utilize tax credits and rebates to make insulation and air sealing upgrades more affordable. Insulation tax credits reduce your federal tax liability by 30% of the cost of qualifying insulation upgrades. We recommend working with your tax professional to determine exactly how much you can save.
