Denver Insulation Project – Lakewood Suites Apartment

The Lakewood Suites development has a multi-year history, beginning under a different general contractor and insulation provider. After construction stalled for more than a year due to unresolved issues, Milender White Construction resumed the project and brought in Kinzler Construction Services to complete the remaining insulation scope and correct deficiencies left by the previous team.

Our Denver division stepped in with a clear, solutions-driven approach, providing high-quality materials, updated code compliance, and strong coordination to move the project toward completion.

Scope of Work

Roof & Upper Assembly

• Installed 4″ closed-cell spray foam (SPF)
• Applied roof netting, followed by blown-in insulation after SPF to fully fill the cavity.
• Assembly designed to meet NFPA 13 fire requirements and thermal performance standards.

Exterior Walls

• Installed R-21 unfaced fiberglass batt insulation with poly, improving energy efficiency and moisture control.

Demising Walls

• Installed R-11 unfaced fiberglass batts with poly, enhancing sound separation and meeting code requirements between individual units.

Corridor Walls

• Installed R-19 unfaced fiberglass batts for improved acoustic performance and overall thermal consistency.

Midfloors

• Fully filled midfloor cavities with unfaced fiberglass batts, meeting NFPA 13 requirements and enhancing sound control between levels.

Parking Ceiling (Under Living Areas)

• Insulated living-over-parking conditions to improve occupant comfort and thermal consistency.

Project Outcome

Despite the complexities of taking over a partially completed insulation scope, the Kinzler Construction Services Denver team delivered a clean, code-compliant, and reliable solution. Our work corrected prior deficiencies, aligned the project with current fire and thermal requirements, and helped move the Lakewood Suites development closer to completion.

While the original budget was not provided, our focus remained on durability, performance, and supporting the long-term success of the project.
