Rigid Insulation —The Foundation of Every Roof We Install

Rigid insulation is a structural component that improves energy efficiency, prevents thermal bridging, and gives the roofing system above it a stable, durable base.

It’s What Goes Under the Membrane That Matters

Rigid insulation is installed on the roof deck as a durable, structural component of virtually every project Precision completes. The type chosen depends on the R-value required—a measure of thermal resistance that directly affects the building’s energy performance.

Precision installs insulation in one or more layers over the roof deck. Coverboards with fiberglass facers are often installed on top to protect the insulation and provide a flat, stable surface for the membrane system above.

Up to

30% Lower Bills

High-R value insulation significantly reduces HVAC demand during Wisconsin winters and summers.

Meets

IECC Standards

We ensure your project meets or exceeds current Wisconsin energy codes for commercial structures.

Extends

Roof Life

A firm, rigid base prevents membrane fatigue and protects your investment from the deck up.

Key Features of Rigid Insulation:

Eliminates Thermal Bridging

Provides a continuous thermal blanket over the entire roof deck, preventing significant heat loss through rafters, fasteners, and other critical structural members.

Moisture Management

Properly installed rigid insulation helps manage condensation and moisture movement within the roof assembly, extending the life of the system above it.

Multi-Layer Installation

We install insulation in one or more layers as needed, staggering the joints to create a more effective thermal and moisture barrier for the building’s interior.

Improves Energy Efficiency

Higher R-values mean less heat transfer — keeping the building warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and reducing HVAC demand year-round.

Enhanced Durability

High-density insulation boards provide a firm, stable base that distributes weight evenly, protecting the membrane from damage caused by foot traffic or equipment.

Protected by Coverboard

Coverboards are optional for most roofs but mandatory for high-traffic areas. They provide a flat, stable surface that protects the insulation and adds a final layer of security.

Professional Insulation Strategies for Your Facility

A high-performance roof is only as good as the foundation beneath it. We focus on providing honest assessments and structured insulation plans that improve your building’s efficiency without disrupting your daily operations.
