Attic insulation for Oakland's climate
The Oakland flats run warmer than San Francisco and the hills catch more fog and wind, so what a home needs in the attic varies from block to block. Insulation settles and gets compressed over the years, and by the time rooms feel uneven it's usually well below the recommended depth.
Across Oakland, including Rockridge, Temescal, Montclair and Glenview, we take out the old insulation, seal air leaks around lights, pipes and the hatch, and install Knauf EcoBatt® or blown-in insulation.
What we see in Oakland homes
- The houses
Oakland's flatland neighborhoods, like Rockridge, Temescal and the Dimond, are full of early-1900s Craftsman and brown-shingle homes, while the hills mix mid-century houses with homes rebuilt after the 1991 firestorm.
- The wildlife
Wooded canyons, creeks and the regional parks along the Oakland Hills bring roof rats and mice right up to the back fence.
- Under the floor
Hillside Oakland homes often sit over deep crawl spaces and retaining walls where water, debris and pests collect.

Rated 4.9 on Google, with 5-star reviews on Yelp, so you can breathe easy knowing you're in good hands.
“First Rate Service. The installation team was 'very' thorough in the removal of our very old blow in insulation. New batts into every nook and cranny. Friendly and left our home a clean site. Well priced. Top job done.”
“We went 5+ years without dealing with the insulation in our attic which was basically non-existent and years of old rat feces prior to us moving in. From the start Ron gave us a very competitive estimate. Joy and Sean arrived promptly, went through the job requirements and then through the house recognizing all the vents/ducts that they were going to clean. At the end of the job, they made sure we were completely…”
“This company has done a unrivaled job. They stand behind their reputation and are true to their word. They did insulation clean up, installing new insulation, sanitized and rodent proof. It's only been a few days but you can already tell the different in the temperature of our house!”
