Your Home’s First Line of Defense in Energy Efficiency, Rodent Protection, and Comfort
In a world of contractors cutting corners and homeowners paying the price, AtticShield was created to do things differently. We believe your attic isn’t just a forgotten space—it’s the shield protecting your comfort, your energy bills, and your health.
We’re a California-based, licensed attic service company specializing in:
Whether you’re a homeowner preparing to sell, a buyer who just found rodent droppings in the attic, or a real estate agent trying to pass inspection—AtticShield delivers results you can see, breathe, and trust.
AtticShield was founded with a clear mission:
“To protect California homes by delivering unmatched attic and crawlspace services that meet energy codes, eliminate contamination, and create healthier indoor environments.”
That means:
No shortcuts.
No excuses.
No guesswork.
Just clean, code-compliant, photo-documented results.
We’re not the cheapest. We’re the most complete, most careful, and most trusted. Because when it comes to your family’s health and your home’s long-term performance, “good enough” isn’t good enough.
Most homeowners don’t realize what’s happening above their ceiling. And most insulation or pest control companies aren’t qualified to fix it properly.
Here’s what we saw before launching AtticShield:
Rodent control companies were using foam to “seal” entry points—easily chewed through and NOT code-compliant.
Insulation companies were installing over droppings, dead rodents, and moldy wood.
HVAC techs were leaving behind disconnected ducts, broken hangers, and leaks.
Homeowners were getting conflicting advice, sloppy service, or both.
We knew it could be better. So we built a company that does it right, every time.
Here’s what truly makes AtticShield different—and why clients across Southern California call us the best in the business.
AtticShield is fully licensed, bonded, and insured to perform insulation and attic work throughout California. We proudly hold a C-2 Insulation Contractor License, which is the only classification legally allowed to perform insulation removal, installation, and energy-efficiency upgrades under the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB).
Many competitors don’t hold the correct license—or any license at all. That puts your home, finances, and inspection clearance at risk.
Here’s the truth most homeowners don’t realize:
❌ A general contractor (Class B) is not allowed to remove or install insulation unless it is part of a much larger remodel.
❌ Pest control companies are not licensed to install insulation, remove contaminated insulation, or seal ventilation ducts.
❌ Handymen or unlicensed operators often cut corners, skip permits, and expose your home to fines or inspection failures.
This license is more than a piece of paper—it’s your assurance that AtticShield is a qualified, trusted professional insulation contractor committed to legal, long-lasting results.
At AtticShield, we don’t believe in shortcuts—especially when it comes to protecting your home from rodents. While other companies spray a bit of foam and call it “proofed”, we go far beyond that with a proven, professional, and permanent rodent exclusion process.
Rodents are clever, persistent, and capable of squeezing through holes as small as a dime. Spray foam doesn’t stop them—it crumbles, breaks, and gets chewed through within days. That’s why our technicians don’t carry foam guns. They carry real tools, real materials, and real experience.
Our process begins with a comprehensive inspection of your entire home, inside and out:
The attic perimeter
Roofline and vents
Plumbing penetrations
Foundation gaps and crawlspace access
Fascia boards, eaves, and HVAC openings
Chimney and electrical chases
Once we’ve identified all visible and accessible rodent entry points, we perform hands-on physical sealing using only durable, building-compliant materials, including:
Galvanized steel mesh — rust-resistant and chew-proof
Sheet metal flashing — to reinforce open edges and corners
Concrete patching — for cracks, gaps, and voids at the foundation
Rodent-proof vent screens — secured with screws, not tape or foam
Steel-backed caulking — used sparingly where needed, never as a cover-up
Every access point we seal is photographed before and after, so you know exactly what was done and how it was handled.
We also sanitize areas contaminated with urine and droppings using EPA-registered disinfectants, ensuring your attic is safe, clean, and ready for new insulation—if needed.
With AtticShield, rodent proofing isn’t an add-on or a gimmick. It’s a core protection strategy built into every service we offer.
Whether it’s blown-in fiberglass or batt insulation, we install every system to meet California Title 24 energy code requirements.
That means:
Correct R-value based on your zone
Proper air sealing before insulation goes in
Full photo documentation of depth, coverage, and material
Clean hatches, walkways, and duct protection throughout
We don’t cut corners. We protect them—with legal, durable, and well-documented insulation systems.
At AtticShield, we believe that protecting your home starts long before we reach your attic.
From the moment we arrive, we treat your property with care and respect. We lay down padded floor runners and plastic coverings to safeguard your floors, walls, corners, and doorways. Your home will never feel like a construction zone.
Before insulation removal or ductwork begins, we fully isolate the attic access with containment barriers and install fiberglass batts around the hatch to stop loose-fill insulation from spilling into your living space. We also seal nearby air vents to prevent dust from entering your HVAC system.
Our technicians use commercial-grade HEPA vacuums and sealed disposal bags to control dust, rodent droppings, and insulation particles. Every material we remove is handled safely, legally, and with full containment.
When the work is done, we clean up completely—vacuuming, wiping down surfaces, and removing all protective materials.
This isn’t just a job—it’s your home. And we take that seriously.
AtticShield isn’t a franchise. We’re not a call center. And we’re definitely not outsourcing your home to subcontractors you’ve never met.
We’re a locally owned, family-operated business based in Escondido, California, proudly serving homeowners across San Diego County, Temecula, Lake Elsinore, and surrounding areas.
When you call AtticShield, you’re speaking directly to our in-house team—not some offshore scheduler or sales robot. We know the cities we serve, we know the building codes in every jurisdiction, and we know how to respond quickly when you need us.
We’ve built this company on personal relationships, strong word-of-mouth, and a relentless commitment to doing things right the first time. That means:
Showing up on time
Following through
Explaining every detail
Respecting your home
And never disappearing after the invoice
