When William reached out to us, his main concern was the lack of comfort in his home—especially during the hotter months. His air conditioner was running almost non-stop, and yet the home still felt warm. Upon inspecting his attic, we found the culprit: only 4 inches of old cellulose insulation, which is well below the recommended level. In addition, we discovered a significant amount of flammable roofing debris scattered throughout the attic, creating both a fire hazard and a barrier to proper insulation coverage.
We began the attic restoration by carefully vacuuming out all the old cellulose insulation and thoroughly removing the roofing debris. Clearing out this debris not only eliminated a serious safety risk, but also prepared the attic for a clean, even layer of new insulation. Next, we sanitized the attic with Nisus DSV, a powerful disinfectant that eliminates harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi—creating a much healthier environment.
We then sealed all major air leakage points, such as plumbing penetrations, top plates, and around registers, using closed-cell foam. This crucial step ensures that air no longer flows between the attic and living spaces, improving both energy efficiency and indoor air quality.
To finish the job, we installed fresh, blown-in fiberglass insulation to a depth of 14 inches, bringing William’s attic up to the Energy Star recommended R38 level.
Now, William can enjoy a cooler home in the summer, lower energy bills, and peace of mind knowing his attic is clean, safe, and energy-efficient.
Michael reached out to us in Fresno because his home was struggling to maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the day. Despite frequent use of his HVAC system, the house never felt quite cool enough in the summer or warm enough in the winter. After inspecting his attic, we quickly discovered the problem: only about 4 inches of aging cellulose insulation were in place—far below recommended standards.
To help improve his home’s comfort and efficiency, we upgraded the attic insulation to the Energy Star recommended R38 level. We blew in premium fiberglass insulation, raising the level to approximately 14 inches. This will significantly reduce heat transfer between the attic and the rest of the home, improving HVAC performance and cutting down on energy costs.
Now that Michael’s attic has the proper level of insulation, he’ll enjoy better temperature control, lower utility bills, and a more energy-efficient home year-round.
Vernon contacted us because his home wasn’t holding temperature the way it should. It was too warm in the summer, too chilly in the winter, and his energy bills were reflecting that imbalance. After inspecting his attic, we discovered he only had about 4 inches of old cellulose insulation—far below the recommended level for homes in the Central Valley.
To solve the problem, we performed an R38 insulation upgrade by adding premium blown-in fiberglass insulation directly over the existing cellulose. We installed 14 inches of fiberglass insulation, raising the overall R-value of his attic to the Energy Star recommended level of R38.
This upgrade provides a much-needed thermal barrier between Vernon’s living space and the extreme temperatures in the attic. With the added insulation, his home will now stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter without putting extra strain on his HVAC system.
Not only will Vernon enjoy a more comfortable home environment year-round, but he’ll also see reduced heating and cooling costs moving forward.
When Carolyn reached out to us, she was dealing with an uncomfortable home that wouldn’t stay cool, no matter how much she ran her air conditioner. Her energy bills were steadily climbing, and she was ready for a solution. Our team went out to inspect her attic and discovered the root of the issue—only 3 inches of old, dirty cellulose insulation were present. This minimal insulation, combined with signs of contamination, was allowing excessive heat to transfer into her living space and significantly impacting her indoor air quality.
We recommended a complete attic restoration to address the problem from the ground up. First, we safely removed and disposed of all the old cellulose insulation. With the attic cleared out, we thoroughly cleaned and sanitized the space using Nisus DSV, a powerful disinfectant and virucide that helps eliminate bacteria, mold, and other contaminants.
Next, we air-sealed key leakage points—including top plates, wire and pipe penetrations, and around ceiling registers—to stop conditioned air from escaping and outside air from entering. We also took the time to seal any visible rodent entry points, ensuring Carolyn won’t have to deal with future infestations.
Once everything was prepped, we blew in 14 inches of premium fiberglass insulation, bringing the attic up to an R38 level, the Energy Star recommendation for maximum comfort and energy efficiency.
Carolyn’s home is now properly insulated and sealed, which will not only keep her house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter—it’ll also improve her indoor air quality and lower her energy costs for years to come.
Jeff reached out to us because his home was constantly uncomfortable, with extreme temperatures in both summer and winter. After conducting an attic inspection, we discovered that there was no insulation at all! Without proper insulation, Jeff’s home was losing a significant amount of conditioned air, forcing his HVAC system to work overtime and driving up his energy bills.
To address the issue, we installed 14 inches of premium blown-in fiberglass insulation, bringing his attic up to the recommended R38 level. This insulation upgrade will help maintain stable indoor temperatures, reduce strain on his heating and cooling system, and significantly cut down on energy costs. Additionally, by adding a proper insulation barrier, Jeff will experience a quieter, more comfortable home year-round.
Now, with his new insulation in place, Jeff’s home will stay cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and far more energy-efficient for years to come!
