There are three types of insulation solution if you have a flat roof: 1  Warm deck or warm roof refers to a situation where the 'deck' of the roof, which is usually made of wood, is below the insulation. 2  Cold deck or cold roof is where the insulation is below the roof deck (and the associated joists).
Workers sometimes wrap a cover of aluminum, sheet metal, or vapor barrier (plastic sheeting) over the insulation. Doing so protects the insulation from contact damage and keeps moisture out. Floor, ceiling, and wall insulators install insulation in attics, under floors, and behind walls in homes and other buildings. Most of these workers unroll, cut, fit, and staple batts of fiberglass insulation between wall studs and ceiling joists.
