Attic Makeover in Anaheim
Turn the “space you never see” into the most valuable energy upgrade in your home. Our Attic Makeover seals hidden leaks, adds Owens Corning insulation to R-38+, tunes ventilation, and documents results—so you feel steadier temperatures, cleaner air, and lower bills all year.
Common Signs
- Hot upstairs / chilly downstairs
- Dusty rooms, allergy flare-ups
- AC or furnace runs nonstop
- Uneven temps between rooms
Typical Causes
- Under-insulated attic (below R-38)
- Unsealed top plates, can lights & chases
- Blocked soffit vents / poor exhaust balance
- Leaky / crushed ducts in the attic
Comprehensive Inspection
Measure insulation depth/R-value, find air bypasses, check ventilation & moisture, and assess duct condition. You get a written plan tailored to your home.
Precision Air Sealing
Seal top plates, can lights, chases, hatches, and penetrations with fire-rated foam/caulk & gaskets. Reduces infiltration and lets insulation perform to spec.
Owens Corning Insulation
Blown-in to R-38 or higher (Title 24 aligned) for year-round thermal protection and sound control. Clean materials, even coverage, photo-verified depth.
Radiant Barrier (Site-Specific)
Stapled to roof deck to reflect up to 97% radiant heat—lowering attic temps and AC strain during Anaheim summers.
Ventilation Optimization
Clear soffit intakes, balance ridge/exhaust, and add QuietCool attic fans if needed to evacuate hot, stale air and prevent condensation.
Duct & Airflow Upgrades (Optional)
Seal joints, replace crushed runs with R8 insulated ductwork, correct sizing, and add balancing dampers for even room-to-room comfort.
Verification & Documentation
Before/after photos, insulation markers, airflow/temperature notes—transparent proof your attic now performs.
Scope of Work
- Air sealing of top plates, fixtures, chases & hatches
- Owens Corning blown-in insulation to R-38+
- Ventilation tune-up with soffit baffles & balanced exhaust
- Radiant barrier (where beneficial) for roof heat control
- Duct sealing/optimization or R8 replacement (optional)
What You Can Expect
- 20–30% HVAC energy savings typical for older homes*
- More even temperatures—especially upstairs bedrooms
- Reduced dust & allergens entering from the attic
- Verified results with photos & readings
*Actual results vary by home size, existing conditions, and usage.
We help identify and stack available tax credits, utility rebates, and low-interest financing. Many Anaheim projects qualify, and monthly savings may offset a significant portion of payments.

How long does the project take?
Most homes are completed in a single day; large homes or duct replacements may take two.
Will this fix my hot upstairs rooms?
Yes—air sealing plus R-38+ insulation and tuned ventilation significantly reduce heat gain and temperature swings.
Do you remove contaminated insulation?
We offer safe removal when needed, followed by sealing and clean Owens Corning re-installation to code.
Can you improve my home’s dust/allergies?
Sealing attic bypasses reduces dust infiltration. Pairing with duct sealing and better filtration further improves IAQ.
How will I see the results?
You’ll receive before/after photos, insulation depth markers, and performance notes for transparent verification.

Our Step-by-Step Attic Makeover Process
1. Comprehensive Attic Inspection
We begin with a full attic diagnostic to identify exactly what’s causing inefficiency:
- Measure insulation depth & R-value
- Locate air leaks, gaps, and bypasses
- Inspect ventilation for proper airflow balance
- Check for moisture, mold, and pest activity
- Assess ductwork for leaks or poor insulation
You receive a custom action plan based on your attic’s unique needs.
2. Attic Air Sealing
Before upgrading insulation, we seal every gap where energy escapes:
- Around light fixtures, plumbing penetrations, and top plates
- Using fire-rated foam, caulking, and gaskets for durability and safety
Benefit: Eliminates drafts, improves air quality, and boosts insulation performance.
3. Owens Corning Insulation Installation
We install Owens Corning blown-in insulation to R-38 or higher, meeting or exceeding Title 24 California energy code:
- Thermal Barrier – Keeps your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter
- Sound Control – Reduces outside noise and room-to-room sound transfer
- Safe Materials – Non-irritating and eco-friendly
4. Radiant Barrier Installation
We staple a high-performance radiant barrier to the underside of your roof:
- Reflects up to 97% of radiant heat
- Can lower attic temps by up to 30°F
- Reduces strain on your HVAC system and extends roof life
5. Ductwork Optimization
We seal or replace ductwork to R8 insulated ducts and verify correct sizing:
- Balances airflow room-to-room
- Reduces wasted energy from leaks
- Optionally add manual dampers for zoning control
6. Ventilation Upgrades
Proper ventilation prevents heat buildup and moisture damage:
- Install QuietCool attic fans for rapid hot air removal
- Add or repair ridge and soffit vents for continuous circulation
7. Final Quality Check & Customer Walkthrough
We finish with a detailed quality inspection:
- Verify insulation depth and even coverage
- Confirm radiant barrier and duct sealing
- Provide before & after photos for your records
- Walk you through your upgraded attic and explain care tips
