Why Attic Insulation Matters
Insulating your attic helps your whole home feel more comfortable year-round. It keeps heat inside during winter and blocks hot air in summer, so your HVAC doesn’t work overtime.
It can also help improve indoor air quality by sealing out contaminants. You’ll notice steadier temperatures, fewer drafts, and potential savings on energy bills.
We do more than just blow insulation into the attic.
Every job starts with a full attic cleaning to remove old insulation, debris, and any signs of pests. We then seal leaks and penetrations in the Sheetrock and roofline using foam and other materials to block air gaps. From there, we install high-quality blow-in insulation to evenly cover every corner.
This process improves air quality, reduces heat loss, and helps create a cleaner, more efficient home from top to bottom.
We’re also a Puget Sound Energy (PSE) rebate partner, which means you may qualify for insulation rebates when we handle the work. We’ll walk you through what’s needed to help make the most of available savings.
We take the time to do things right without shortcuts or guesswork. Every detail is handled with care, from prep to cleanup.
You’ll get a respectful crew, clear communication, and before-and-after photos of the work. We stay organized, clean up after ourselves, and treat your home the way we’d want ours treated.
We start by clearing out damaged insulation, debris, and signs of pests to get a clean working space.
Our team checks for mold, water damage, and hidden air gaps—especially around light fixtures and penetrations in the Sheetrock.
We use fire-safe foam to seal leaks, install screens for airflow, set measuring rulers for proper R-value, and add soffit breathers to support ventilation.
We apply high-performance insulation evenly across the attic to maximize coverage and improve energy efficiency.
Proper attic insulation is crucial for comfort, energy savings, and even moisture control in the Pacific Northwest climate. Without enough insulation, a significant amount of heat (over 25% of your home’s heat) can escape through the roof.
Yes. We use fire-safe foam to seal gaps and penetrations—like around light fixtures and Sheetrock—to help prevent contaminated air from entering your living space.
Insulation levels are measured by “R-value,” which indicates how well a material resists heat flow. The recommended attic R-value depends on the climate. In the Pacific Northwest, we recommend R-38 to R-60.
Yes. Attic cleaning is part of the service. We remove old insulation and debris before installing anything new.
We recommend inspecting your attic once a year to catch signs of moisture, pests, or damage early. If your insulation stays dry and undisturbed, it can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years. Cleaning or replacing insulation is only needed if there are signs of contamination, damage, or energy loss.
Blown-in insulation offers several advantages over traditional batt insulation. Because it’s applied as loose fill, it reaches gaps, cracks, and corners, reducing air leakage and heat loss for better energy efficiency. We can typically install it in an attic within a few hours, depending on the attic’s size, often without major demolition. It is also one of the most cost-effective insulation options for the R-value provided.
Yes, you may qualify for utility rebates through programs like PSE’s weatherization rebate. There are also federal energy tax credits available for insulation work. Up to 30% of the project cost, capped at $1,200 per year. Ask us what’s currently available in your area.
We use both cellulose and fiberglass blown-in insulation. Each has its pros. Fiberglass is great for long-term R-value, while cellulose offers excellent coverage and sound dampening. We’ll recommend what works best for your home.
