Pro Insulation
Overview

We Create Comfortable and Efficient Homes. All year-round!

Insulation installed to perform. Not just to meet the minimum.

We design and install insulation systems that significantly improve overall comfort by reducing heat loss in winter and effectively keeping it out on hot summer days. We install insulation only once - properly - so it performs the way it should, year after year. For up to 50 years*

Our team installs insulation with performance in mind: complete coverage, correct application, appropriate R-values, and attention to the details that actually affect performance and comfort.

Here's why homeowners choose us:

We don't aim to be the cheapest option. We aim to be the one you would happily recommend to your Family and Friends. That means top-notch service, experienced installers, and insulation systems that are designed to perform in real homes, not just meet minimum requirements on (someone else's) paper.

Our Approach

Most installers treat insulation as a commodity. We treat it as engineering.

In Europe, insulation is a regulated building science. In Australia, it is often an afterthought. We bring that European rigour to every home we work on, because the difference between “installed” and “installed correctly” is the difference between 4 stars and 8 stars.

The Commodity Approach

How most companies operate

  • Minimum R-value to meet code
  • Batts stuffed in, gaps ignored
  • No attention to thermal bridging
  • Cheapest material available
  • Rushed install, no quality check
  • "Good enough" mentality
~4 Star Result
Our Standard

The Pro Insulation Standard

European precision, Australian homes

  • R-value selected for actual performance
  • Precision-cut batts, zero gaps
  • Complete coverage over joists with R7.0/8.0
  • Knauf Earthwool with ECOSE binder
  • Documented install, photo evidence
  • Engineered for 50-year performance
8+ Star Result

The materials cost roughly the same. The difference is how they are installed, where they are placed, and who is doing the work.

Our Team

Dedicated Professionals

With over 25 years of combined experience and backgrounds spanning engineering, construction and manufacturing, our team is determined to raise the bar for insulation standards in Victoria. Inspired by European building standards, we're working to bring better comfort, efficiency and real value to homes across the state.

Knauf guaranteed performance

Unlike every other home improvement, insulation doesn't wear out, doesn't go out of style, and never stops working. It simply sits there, making your home warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and cheaper to run, every single day, for the next half century.

When Performance Falls Short

Why Most Insulation Underperforms

In many homes, insulation often underperforms. Not because of the product itself, but because of how it is specified and installed. See how we mitigate these challenges:

Common Issues

  • Old insulation that has shifted, settled, or degraded over time
  • Poor detailing around edges, penetrations, and junctions
  • Gaps, compression, or inconsistent coverage
  • Inappropriate R-Value selection

Insulation performs at peak when:

  • Matched to the home's construction and size
  • Correctly sized and fitted
  • Installed with full, continuous coverage

This is why two homes with the same insulation product can feel completely different.

How this affects your upgrade

Our approach focuses on performance first - not just ticking a box. That means selecting appropriate R-values and installing them properly, so the insulation actually does what it's meant to do, all year-round. Year after year. This is why the installer matters just as much as the insulation itself.

Easy Step by Step

Your Insulation Upgrade from Start to Finish

We keep the process simple, structured, and transparent - so you always know what's happening at each stage.

Step 1

Before Install

  • Access confirmation (safe access for removal and installation)
  • Joist spacing measurement (so batts fit properly - no gaps or compression)
  • Roof cavity check (overall condition, anything that could affect installation)

This helps ensure the insulation performs properly and avoids surprises on the day.

Step 2

During Install

  • Existing insulation carefully removed
  • Roof cavity vacuumed and cleaned
  • New Earthwool insulation installed at your chosen R-rating
  • Post-install photos taken
  • Full clean-up and waste disposal

We treat your home with care and leave everything clean, complete, and ready to enjoy immediately.

Step 3

Post Install

  • Final photos sent via email or iMessage
  • Invoice sent via email
  • Warranty certificate issued once payment is received

Everything is documented and shared clearly, so you are in total control.

Paul Winkler

If you want the job done right ring Kris at Pro Insulation. They came and removed the old blow in insulation and installed R8 Earth wool bats and the difference is amazing and the professionalism of the team was telling, nothing was too hard. I would recommend the team to everyone number 1. I was hoping to add some photos to show how clean the ceiling was but I was unable to unload them. Thanks again Kris job well done.

J
Jodi Enrico

We had a fantastic experience with Jan and his team from Pro Insulation. They removed old, deteriorated, poorly placed insulation, cleaned and sanitised the roof space and installed new earth wool insulation. They did an amazing job and installed fully to all the hard to reach places. Highly recommended.

Daniel Reyes

I hired Pro Insulation Removal after moving in to my new house in Essendon West, and I couldn't be happier with their job. From start to finish, the team was so professional. They arrived on time, explain the process clearly, and got the job done even before the expected time. They left my house clean and they went above and beyond to ensure everything was done properly. Great follow up from the owners and even they called us to make sure we were happy.

Florence Law

Jan and Kris have been incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of completing our customised insulation project. He and his team were professional, efficient, and carried out the work with great attention to detail. The job was completed cleanly and neatly, and we are extremely pleased with the result. I would have no doubt to reuse their service in the future and highly recommend this business.

E
Egon Omerba

I have my home roof cavity insulated by Pro Insulation on the 29/05/2025. Already next day I could notice the house warmed much quicker and the warmth stayed for much longer time, resulting in saving energy. As for the crew of Pro Insulation very professional they cleaned everything after themselves and checked if everything was working properly. What was most professional was that they followed up the next day to see if we where satisfied with the job.

V
Victor Lieu

Kris was professional, on time and honest with the options I could have with ceiling insulation. His team installed it efficiently, very happy with the outcome and would work with them again.

Anna De Amicis
