Insulation Contractor in Sylmar

Attic first. Then, most owners want the walls.

Deep Valley Roots, Neglected Attics

Sylmar is a long-established community with deep Valley roots. Parts of it have larger lots and horse property. Many homes have been added onto over the years, and the attic tends to be neglected.

Sylmar has the same Valley issues with rodent entry, plus past alterations and remodels that sometimes made things worse. It often adds up to a deep attic retrofit.

The Common Sylmar Path

1

Attic first

We recommend starting with the attic, often a deep retrofit: Attic Insulation Removal, proofing, and Blown-In Attic Insulation.

2

Feel the difference

Owners feel the difference.

3

Then the walls

1950s and 60s homes usually have no wall insulation, so many come back for Drill & Fill Wall Insulation.

4

Half or all

Some do half the walls. Most end up wanting all of them.

When Past Work Made It Worse

Many Sylmar homes have been added onto, and past alterations and remodels sometimes made things worse. We look at the house and give you an honest assessment of what needs correcting, including rodent entry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I do the attic or the walls first?
We usually recommend the attic first. Owners feel the difference, and then many want the walls.
Can I insulate only some of the walls?
Yes. Some owners do half the walls, but most end up wanting all of them. See drill and fill wall insulation.
Past work on my house was done poorly. Can you sort it out?
Past alterations and remodels sometimes made things worse. We assess what is there and give you an honest plan to correct it.
Can I get the LADWP attic insulation rebate?
Sylmar is part of the City of Los Angeles, so homes there are generally LADWP electric customers and may qualify for the LADWP attic insulation rebate. We pull the permit, prepare the rebate paperwork and photos, and schedule the inspection. Program rules change, so confirm the current terms with LADWP before the project.
