Long-term owners, old attics

With so many long-term owners, many attics here have never been fully redone. Original insulation from the late 1970s is far below today's R-38 target and often thin and compressed. Air handlers have been replaced more than once, and duct connections may never have been sealed. This is where a full attic job, sealing first and then blowing in fiberglass to depth, pays off most.

Block homes, low ground

Whiskey Creek homes are largely block on slab, so the walls carry some mass and the attic is the main heat path. Near the creek and river, low ground and humidity are constant, so sealing the ceiling also helps keep humid air out.

Costs

HomeGuide lists an average attic insulation job at about $1,800 and air sealing at $350 to $3,000 nationally. The written estimate after our visit is your price.

Planning the job

A full attic job here usually means sealing the ceiling first, then setting eave baffles and blowing fiberglass to R-38 or more, all in about a day. If the old insulation is soiled or mixed with debris from decades of service work, removal comes first and adds a few hours. The written quote shows each step.
