What's in Palo Alto attics
Palo Alto runs from early-1900s homes in Professorville and Old Palo Alto to the city's 1950s Eichlers, whose low, flat roofs leave little or no attic, so each house needs its own approach. Old insulation holds dust, droppings and odors, and it stops doing its job long before anyone looks at it.
We work in Old Palo Alto, Professorville, Crescent Park and Midtown and across Palo Alto. Our crews vacuum the old insulation out through a hose to the truck, bag it on site, sanitize and deodorize the attic and seal the entry points.

What we see in Palo Alto homes
- The weather
Palo Alto's warm, dry summers and chilly winter nights make attic insulation one of the most effective upgrades for an older home.
- The wildlife
Mature oaks, San Francisquito and Matadero creeks and the Baylands open space bring rats and mice close to Palo Alto homes.
- Under the floor
Older Palo Alto homes on raised foundations often have crawl spaces with torn vapor barriers and the original insulation.

When the job was completed, I was again shown with photos exactly what was done and was beyond satisfied with…”
“I was super impressed with the team that came a took care of what appeared to be a nightmare attic. The team lined our floors and walls from the entrance of the house to the attic trap door, removed all the old insulation and debris, then cleaned and sanitized the whole attic, covered any openings to prevent rodents in the future and closed off any ceiling openings with foam around each of our recessed lights.…”
“Our synagogue in San Jose had a major fly problem. I wasn't even aware we had an attic. I also wasn't aware that we had rats, or that a dead rat was attracting the flies. They found rat poop, urine, and mold. Attic crew came in, diagnosed the problem and within a short period of time the flies we're gone, the attic and insulation we're brand new.”
