The challenge

An attic floor and 1,157 sq ft of walls

This job covered more than the attic floor. Alongside 878 sq ft of attic, the scope included 1,157 sq ft of walls, each with its own batt: R-38 over the attic floor, R-19 faced batts in the walls.

Protective floor barriers and dust-barrier tunnels went in along the work path first. The existing insulation came out with a heavy-duty vacuum, the space was sanitized with OdoBan, and preventative rodent proofing went in with wire mesh, polyurethane foam and cement before the new batts were laid.

The service

What the crew did, in order

Prep and protection

Protective floor barriers and dust-barrier tunnels set through the work path before any material was moved, so the rest of the house stayed clean.

Remove the old insulation

The existing insulation taken out with a heavy-duty vacuum, down to a clear, bare surface.

Clean and sanitize

Debris vacuumed from hard surfaces, then OdoBan sanitation applied to neutralize odors and bacteria.

Seal and rodent-proof

Preventative rodent proofing: likely entry points closed with wire mesh, polyurethane foam and cement. Gaps around fixtures, piping, wiring and vents air-sealed in the same pass.

New insulation

New R-38 24in Fiberglass Batts in the attic and R-19 24in faced in the walls installed, on a clean, sealed surface rather than on top of the old layer.

The result

878 sq ft of R-38 and 1,157 sq ft of R-19

Photos from the job show the cleared attic with foam run along the gaps between the ceiling boards and around electrical boxes and a duct, then the new R-38 24in batts laid deep across the attic floor. The walls received new R-19 24in faced batts.

Questions homeowners ask

Attic work in Agoura Hills, answered

Who removes old attic insulation and installs new batts in Agoura Hills?

Atticare USA does both as one project. On this Agoura Hills job the old insulation came out with a heavy-duty vacuum, the attic was sanitized with OdoBan and air-sealed, and new R-38 24in fiberglass batts went in last. Why that order matters: the order of operations.

Can Atticare USA insulate walls in the same project as the attic?

Yes. This job covered 878 sq ft of attic and 1,157 sq ft of walls together: R-38 24in batts over the attic and R-19 24in faced batts in the walls.

Why seal the attic before new insulation goes in?

Because once the new layer is down, the gaps under it are covered. On this job foam went along the gaps between the ceiling boards and around electrical boxes and a duct while the attic was empty, and only then were the new batts laid.

Does Atticare USA offer free attic inspections in Agoura Hills?
