Comprehensive Attic Restoration with Air Sealing and Rodent Proofing in Fresno, CA

Claudia and Chris reached out to us because their home in Fresno was struggling to stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Their HVAC system was running almost nonstop, but the house still felt uncomfortable. When we inspected their attic, we found the culprit: only about 3 inches of old cellulose insulation, which was not providing adequate thermal resistance. Additionally, there were signs of air leakage and debris buildup.

To fully restore their attic, we started by removing all the old insulation and cleaning out any debris. We then sanitized the entire space using Nisus DSV, a hospital-grade disinfectant that eliminates bacteria, viruses, and other contaminants. Next, we sealed air leaks around top plates, plumbing penetrations, and electrical openings using closed-cell foam to prevent unwanted airflow between the attic and the living spaces. We also secured potential rodent entry points to protect the attic from infestations in the future.

Once the attic was fully prepped, we installed new blown-in fiberglass insulation at an R38 level, ensuring Claudia and Chris’s home would be well-insulated year-round. This upgrade will significantly improve their indoor comfort, reduce energy bills, and enhance their home’s overall efficiency.

Now, their home stays comfortable in all seasons, and their HVAC system won’t have to work overtime, leading to long-term savings and better indoor air quality!
