One licensed team, one standard, from the roofline to the soil — so nothing gets lost between contractors.

01 — INSULATION INSTALLATION

Blown to full depth. Photographed with a ruler.

Blown-in fiberglass to Title 24 targets — the attic sealed first, material blown even and complete, R-38 to R-49 by climate zone with R-44 our most-recommended target.

02 — RODENT PROOFING

Steel first. Never foam alone.

Every active and potential entry point backed with 1/8-inch galvanized steel mesh or steel wool, sealed with silicone, foam, or stucco patch over the steel — screwed, verified, and photographed before and after.

Sanitizing & Waste Removal

05

Air Sealing & Ducts

Close the ceiling-plane leaks insulation can't fix, and repair the ducts that decide where your conditioned air actually goes.

06 — CRAWL SPACE & VAPOR BARRIERS

What's under the floor ends up in your air.

Cleanup, steel exclusion, and ground-moisture control beneath the home — because the stack effect pulls crawl space air up into your living space every day.

Crawl space vapor barrier installation by Attic Shield
Why it matters

Two hidden spaces decide how your whole home feels.

Summer heat radiating through thin insulation. Conditioned air escaping through unsealed penetrations. Rodents following canyon edges to unprotected vents. Ground moisture rising into the air your family breathes. None of it announces itself — it shows up as a utility bill, a warm bedroom, a scratching sound at 2 a.m.

Maintained properly, the same two spaces work for you: stable temperatures, lower bills, cleaner air, and a documented history that pays off the day you sell.

How it works

Inspect. Fix. Prove.

The same disciplined sequence on every project — in the professional order, never skipped.

STEP 01

Free Inspection

About an hour in your attic or crawl space with a camera and a ruler. You get a written three-column scope — including when the honest answer is "your attic is fine." No pressure, no expiring quote.

STEP 02

The Right Fix, In Order

Remove and clean under containment, seal entry points in steel, sanitize, air seal, then restore insulation to full depth. Most projects finish in one to two days, on a timeline we put in writing.

STEP 03

Proof In Your Hands

Before, during, and after photos of every major step, completion paperwork, and a documented baseline — with the same local number answering in year one, year two, and year three.

PROOF
Why the name

Anyone can say the attic is done.
We show you.

Every ruler standing in fresh insulation, every steel-sealed entry point, every before-and-after — photographed and handed to you. Because the two spaces you never look at shouldn't be the two spaces you have to take on faith.

Materials & standards

Built to code. Backed by names you can check.

Manufacturer-grade materials

Fiberglass insulation from Owens Corning, CertainTeed, and Johns Manville — manufacturer warranties typically 10–25 years, behind our own workmanship guarantee.

California's energy code

Every installation designed to meet or exceed Title 24 for your climate zone — and savings expectations follow the published ENERGY STAR methodology, around 15%, never inflated.

A license you can verify

C-2 Insulation and B General, bonded and insured — verify us at the CSLB in thirty seconds, and run the same check on anyone else who quotes your attic. The C-2 is legally required for this work.

The Attic Shield standard

Rules we never bend.

01

Steel first, never foam alone.

Rodents chew straight through foam on its own — so every sealed point starts with 1/8-inch steel mesh or steel wool, with foam, silicone, or stucco patch finishing over the steel. The steel is never optional.

02

Photos, not promises.

Every major step documented before, during, and after — so you never take our word for what happened above your ceiling or under your floor.

03

"Fine as-is" gets said out loud.

Plenty of inspections end with a documented healthy attic, delivered free — because manufactured urgency isn't a service.

04

Written scopes that hold.

No same-day-only pricing, no pressure — quotes stay valid while you think, compare, and decide. That's how trust survives.

Quick answers

The questions every attic starts with.

Do I need insulation removal, or can new insulation go on top?
If the existing material is clean, dry, and even, topping it off after air sealing may be enough. If it's contaminated by rodents, wet, compacted, or producing odors, new insulation on top only traps the problem underneath — removal creates the clean baseline that makes everything after it work. The free inspection settles which situation you have, with photos.
Can rodents come back after proofing?
Only through openings that were missed or sealed in materials they can chew — which is why every sealed point is backed in steel — never foam alone — and photographed so you can see the work is complete.
How long does a typical project take?
Most complete projects — removal, sanitizing, exclusion, sealing, and new insulation — finish in one to two days. You get the timeline in writing with the inspection report, before any work is scheduled.
What does the free inspection actually include?
About an hour covering all six systems — insulation depth, rodent evidence, ventilation, ducts, air leaks, and structure or moisture — ending with a written three-column scope: needs attention now, can bundle later, fine as-is. No pressure and no obligation, even when the scope is empty.

One hour. A camera. A ruler.
The truth about your attic.
