"After having a new air conditioning system installed, to replace an old inefficient one, we decided to make sure our attic had the correct insulation as well as the appropriate R-value. Since our home was built in the 1950's, the insulation throughout the attic was minimal. We hired Insulation Commandos to survey and provide us with the appropriate solution. The solution involved removal of the old insulation, cleaning the area, and installing the correct insulation based on our homes location. We now believe we can keep our energy costs down and provide less strain on our AC system. Great job team!"

"They simply did a great job. I had them remove the old insulation, install new batt insulation, and add radiant barrier in my attic. Now my attic and house are a whole lot cooler. It is noticeably cooler in the house. The person who contacted me was Dustin. He was very professional and did a great job explaining things to me and laying out my options. The crew, which included Aldo, Roman, and Aaron were very professional and respectful to the care of our home and performing their job. I would definitely recommend and am willing to rehire them again for possible future projects. Thanks guys."

"I wanted insulation blown in above the ceiling of my condo to lessen the noise from my neighbors above. Darren was very responsive and professional and knew exactly what I was looking for. The crew arrived on time, was very nice, and covered the house in plastic sheeting to protect everything from the incredible amount of dust created by drilling dozens of holes in the ceiling to shoot the insulation. Their subcontractor Robert arrived the next day to repair the holes and repaint the ceilings. He also was able to install can lights in my living room (separate job and quote from the job Attic Construction was doing). During installation of the lights, we discovered that some of the cavities that should have been filled by new insulation were not, due to a problem with the old insulation. One call to Darren and the insulation guys showed up early the next morning to take care of it. Robert the drywall guy and his helper Carlos did an amazing job repairing all the holes, you can't even tell that my ceiling looked like swiss cheese at one point. The reduction in sound coming from upstairs is noticeable due to the new insulation and I love my new lights. Be aware though that a job like this is incredibly messy and dusty but Attic Construction OC made it as easy as possible."

"I needed to get rid of my old batts insulation and undergo an attic insulation replacement, but I didn’t know exactly how to go about it. After I got in touch with Attic Insulation Labs and explained my situation to them, they soon sent around an inspector who looked at my attic and made several recommendations to me. First of all, he explained that my batts insulation was not ideal for my attic due to its shape – several nooks and crannies of my attic were not insulated by the batts rolls which I had up there for so many years. The technician recommended blown-in insulation, a type of insulation which is “blown in” to every surface of your attic, creating a customized shape which is perfect for unusually-shaped attics such as my own. I felt very confident and at ease when working with Attic Insulation Labs – I would recommend them to a bunch of people!"

"We had no problem or issue with this company. They came and did exactly what they said and promised. The service was fast too. We were able to schedule them for the same week and the work was completed after 2 days of work. According to the technician that worked at our house, it was better to use the opportunity when the attic empty from the old insulation and to replace the ducts as well. For the price that we were able to got, we decided to do that too.
so overall, we are in the stage that we will use this company in the future and we will refer them to people that we know and might need the same kind of work to be done.

"My least favorite part of owning a home is paying for it. That's probably true for most people, but I find it very difficult to part with a dollar. For that reason, about 10 years ago, when my air conditioning died, I told my family we were going to live without it - I grew up without air conditioning and did just fine. About 2 years ago, the furnace started to give us a little trouble as well, and this year, before the winter started in earnest, it died too. Both systems dated to 1977 (I bought the house in 2005). As soon as the cold weather kicked in this past year, I knew I was going to have to have everything replaced. The extreme cold this year, plus the unreasonably hot summer in 2022...well, it was time to fix things. I got on Angie's list to find some contractors. I stuck with people with 5 stars (or as close as possible) and over 100 reviews, and had about 8 different outfits come by to look at the job and give me bids. It took a while, but when you are looking to have to spend 25-30,000 dollars, you want to make sure it doesn't go to waste. I found that, even with 5 stars, a company might not be too impressive when they come by to look at a job. One company tried to hard sell me with fancy brochures and pressure tactics. Another opened up our discussion by saying that he "refuses to pull permits - it saves us both money," and that he insisted on installing a furnace that did not comply with county emissions standards, because "it'll be nothing but problems if you follow the rules." Gustavo, from GC Heating and Cooling, struck me as a cut above the rest of the guys that showed up. First off, the first thing he wanted to do was see the current system himself, despite being the owner of the company and not a young man. He and I climbed into the attic - the fact that he invited me to check it out was cool - and after he saw everything, we sat down to talk. He was patient and kind - I felt like he was excited about doing the job, excited about how he could improve the situation of our house, and he wanted to communicate that excitement to me. I told him what we wanted to do, and he gave me several options to accomplish the goal - of course, as a professional with a college degree in mechanical engineering, he had an opinion about which was the best option for us, but (and this is a testament to his honesty) crucially, his "best" option was not the most expensive option. After we were done talking, he gave me a very fair price (I base my opinion on the other estimates I got), told me that no matter what happened on the job he would not increase the price, and told me to call him if I liked what he had to say. Let me make this long story a little bit longer - I chose Gustavo to get the job done, and I'm grateful to him and his crew for getting the job done in as excellent and efficient a manner as I could have hoped. His crew is clean and polite, and they work quietly and quickly, always cleaning up after themselves. Any time I pointed out a problem, they fixed it. Any time I had a question, they answered it. To be honest, these guys were so cool, it made me not want to go to work on the Friday they started the job so I could work with them and maybe learn something! They wrapped up a full HVAC job, removing all of the old equipment and installing the new, in a 2400 square foot house, in two and a half days. The whole time, Gustavo was running the show, keeping tabs on his guys, making sure things were running smoothly, and always answering all of my questions. On the final walk though for the job, when everything was done, he was still excited about the work, showing me all the different stuff he and his crew had done. Believe me, I was glad to shake the guy's hand and thank him and his team for a job well done. Gustavo's secret, if you ask me? He likes people, and he likes helping them out. He's got a lot of energy, and he directs it in a very positive way. All of that, and he's an expert in his craft. My recommendation to you, dear reader, is: hire Gustavo for your HVAC needs. I'm sure glad I did!"

FAQs for batt, rolled or reflective insulation install or upgrade projects in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Batt insulation excels in vertical installations because it remains firmly in place and delivers consistent thermal performance. Blown-in insulation performs exceptionally in spaces such as attics, efficiently filling gaps in irregular areas. 

Employing both insulation types according to their strengths enhances your home’s overall energy efficiency and comfort by providing a tailored solution for every space.

Start by measuring the square footage of the space, then match that area with the insulation thickness you need to hit your target R-value. Add a buffer for waste and odd-shaped spots so every cavity is covered. 

Once you have a rough count, run it past a local insulation pro—their on-site advice will fine-tune the numbers and help you avoid costly miscalculations.

Old insulation that is dry, intact, and mold-free does not require removal before adding new insulation; stacking new insulation over it maintains effective thermal performance and boosts energy efficiency. 

If the insulation is damp, moldy, or deteriorated, removal is necessary to eliminate health risks and ensure maximum effectiveness of the new layer. A professional insulation contractor will assess your situation and recommend the most effective solution.

Installing insulation in an average-sized home using batts or boards requires five to 12 hours. Using spray foam or blown-in insulation requires two to five hours. These timeframes are determined by the area’s size, accessibility, and whether old insulation must be removed. 

Complex projects and hard-to-reach spaces demand extra time. Hiring an experienced insulation professional ensures that the installation is completed efficiently and correctly.

Insulation is measured by R-value, which defines how effectively it resists heat flow. A higher R-value provides superior thermal resistance, ensuring your home remains warm in winter and cool in summer. 

Choosing the correct R-value is essential for maximizing energy efficiency and comfort, and it directly impacts long-term utility savings. Professional guidance determines the optimal R-value for your specific climate.
