"The guys at NW Weatherization did an excellent job installing additional insulation in my attic and crawlspace. They also reattached the exhaust fan boot. I can tell that the added insulation is helping keep my home warmer since the furnace doesn't come on as often and run as long. Thank you Ryan and everyone at NW Weatherization!"

"Would recommend to anyone! Ulises Pro Insulation, LLC were great advocates for their customer's best interest. My attic space was under-insulated. They did a careful inspection of the space, and showed me photos of their findings. They were honest about there being no urgent issue, and about what might be limitations of working in such a tight space. Nonetheless, they were happy to attempt the service and were able to maximize the space's energy efficiency. They were fast to give an estimate, fast to schedule and complete the job, and they left the workspace spotless."

"Did a great job of installing insulation and drywall however, they cracked a wall when installing the drywall, they hammered rather than screw it into the studs. Now I must repair the cracked wall. Somehow my compact florescent light also disappeared from the laundry room . They also initially wanted to put the R-30 insulation on top of the R-11 that was already in the ceiling. When compressed the insulation would have lost some of its insulating capabilities so I had to tell them not to do that. Seems they should have known this."

Customers say: True professional
"They did a very thorough crawl space clean up and detailed and well secured installation of the vapor barrier . They were honest, and efficient with positive energy. The issues are with communications from the office. They could be more professional, timely and thorough."

"Pablo did a fine job. He insulated two south facing bedroom walls. He showed up on time and worked hard. There were several challenges. My walls had a “whisper” of insulation. Enough to require something special. And he had a solution up his sleeve. And one of my bedrooms had walls with unique paint features that I requested that he work around. And he did. After insulating the walls he had to spackle the drywall. He spackled, let dry, sanded, and repeated the sequence. He came back the second day so the walls would be really dry. This was followed by texturing. I painted the next day and I can’t even tell that 24 holes were created in each bedroom. Fantastic. Pablo is the owner of Call of Duty so sometimes it was hard to connect but everything worked out super. I was really impressed with his attention to detail. I would use him again."

Old insulation should be removed when it shows damage, contamination, or heavy deterioration. If you notice water stains, rodent droppings, mold, or large gaps, plan on taking it out to protect your home’s energy performance and indoor air quality. Removing compromised material eliminates health hazards, cuts energy loss, and sets the stage for a safer, more efficient attic—all while keeping utility bills in check.
R-value measures how well insulation resists heat flow—the higher the number, the better it slows heat transfer. The right R-value keeps your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer, saving energy year-round. Match the rating to your climate zone and have a pro verify performance over time, because moisture or settling can lower R-value and cut efficiency.
Attic insulation can stay in place for 80 to 100 years, but its performance often drops after the first 15. As dust, moisture, or mold build up, the material loses R-value and allows heat to escape. Schedule periodic inspections so a pro can tell you when replacement makes sense—helping you keep energy bills down and indoor comfort up.
You can over-insulate an attic. Beyond the recommended R-value, extra layers don’t add efficiency and can trap moisture, leading to mold or reduced performance. A local insulation pro can measure current levels, confirm the right target for your climate, and advise on any adjustments so you avoid future energy or maintenance headaches.
Insulation can be damaged by mold, pests, water leaks, or accidental electrical contact. When the material is compromised, it loses R-value and can introduce health hazards. Removing and replacing affected sections restores efficiency, while routine inspections from a qualified pro help you catch problems early and keep your attic safe and energy-smart.
